PakMax 24 oz Deep Sugarcane Bowl DB-196-24W Carton of 500

The PakMax DB-196-24W is a 24 oz deep sugarcane bowl, 196 mm across the brim and 48.73 mm deep, supplied in a carton of 500. It takes the same DB-LID as the 32 oz and 40 oz bowls in the range, and it is recyclable, oil and moisture resistant and finished in natural off-white.

Why operators choose the DB-196-24W

• 24 oz brim fill capacity - the recorded capacity - soups, noodles, curries, poke and salad portions that need depth rather than width
• 196 mm across the brim - the same brim diameter as the 32 oz DB-196-32W, so the two share a lid and a footprint. The capacity difference is depth: this one is 48.73 mm against 63 mm
• Takes the DB-LID - the supplier's own lid listing names this bowl, the 32 oz and the 40 oz as the three it fits, so one lid SKU covers the whole deep-bowl range
• 500 per carton - the same carton quantity as the 32 oz bowl and the DB-LID, which makes ordering the bowl and lid together straightforward
• Recyclable - the supplier's own wording for this product - recyclable rather than compostable, which is a different waste stream from the sugarcane food containers in the same range
• Oil and moisture resistant - the supplier's stated resistance - what keeps a hot, saucy bowl meal from softening the base before service
• FSC certified - recorded against this product by the supplier
• Natural off-white finish - the recorded colour - a neutral background that suits most food

Installation & delivery

Nothing to install - this is a single-use disposable supplied as a carton of 500. The carton measures 430 x 290 x 210 mm with a gross weight of 11.5 kg. Freight on a light, bulky carton like this is calculated on its cubic volume rather than its gross weight, so the shipping weight shown at checkout is the higher of the two. Store flat and dry.

Warranty terms vary by product - see our warranty information page for full details.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Which lid fits this bowl?

The DB-LID. We can say that with confidence rather than inferring it from the diameter, because the supplier's own listing for the lid names this bowl explicitly alongside the 32 oz and 40 oz models as the three it is made for. The lid is recorded at 214 mm across against this bowl's 196 mm brim, which is the overlap a snap-over lid needs. One thing to be aware of: the lid is PET plastic while the bowl is sugarcane fibre, so they do not go into the same waste stream.

Q: How is this different from the 32 oz bowl?

Depth, and only depth, as far as the recorded figures go. Both bowls are 196 mm across the brim and both come 500 to a carton. This 24 oz records 48.73 mm deep; the 32 oz records 63 mm. They ship in different cartons - 430 x 290 x 210 mm at 11.5 kg here against 550 x 290 x 210 mm at 13.0 kg - and both take the same DB-LID.

Q: Can it hold hot food?

The supplier describes it as suitable for hot or cold meals and as oil and moisture resistant, and that is what we have published. No maximum temperature is recorded against this SKU, so we cannot give you a figure. If you are holding food hot for an extended period rather than packing and handing over, ask our team to get the limit from the supplier before you commit to a carton.

Q: Is this compostable or recyclable?

The supplier describes this product as recyclable, and that is what we have published. Note that it is a different claim from the one on the PakMax sugarcane food containers in the same range, which the supplier describes as compostable under commercial conditions. Recycling and commercial composting are different waste streams, so we have kept each product's own wording rather than harmonising them. Check which stream your venue and your council actually have before you print an environmental claim of your own.

Q: Is it FSC certified?

The supplier records an FSC certification against this product and we have published it as recorded. FSC certifies forest and plant fibre, so the claim is coherent for a moulded fibre product. We have not seen the certificate ourselves - if you need the certification number for your own compliance or tender documentation, ask our team and we will request it from the supplier.

Q: Are the recorded dimensions the item or the carton?

The carton. The Width, Depth and Height recorded against this product match the carton size stated in the supplier description exactly, which is how we can say it with certainty rather than assuming it. The item's own size is published separately in the specifications above. Use the carton figures for storage and freight planning, not for portion planning.

Q: What warranty applies?

No warranty term is recorded against this SKU by the supplier. That is not unusual for a single-use disposable, and we have not borrowed a term from a sibling product. See our warranty information page, or ask our team if you need something in writing.
