When will Earthlings launch?

We're in production now. We'll contact Founding Families directly when the first run is confirmed and ready to ship. We'd rather tell you when we're certain than give you a date we can't keep.

What does being a Founding Family mean?

Founding Families are the first people to access the Earthlings Everyday Adventure System when the first production run is ready. You'll receive an email 48 hours before we open to the public, with £10 off any bundle included — no code, no time limit. No newsletter you didn't ask for.

What exactly are the products made from?

The lunch boxes, snack pots, dip pot, and bottle are made from 304 food-grade stainless steel (18/8) — no coatings, no inks, no liners. The logos are laser-etched directly into the metal. The seals are food-grade silicone, removable without tools. The spork is titanium.

Can I put my adventure system in the dishwasher?

Yes. All Earthlings lunchboxes, snack pots, bottles and cutlery including their cases are dishwasher safe.

Stainless steel is durable, non-reactive, and completely food safe — designed to last years, not seasons. It won't stain, absorb odours, or need replacing every couple of years the way plastic containers often do. 304 food-grade stainless steel — the grade used in Earthlings products — is the same material used in professional kitchen equipment. It's independently tested for heavy metal migration, REACH SVHC compliant, and dishwasher safe for daily use. Unlike many plastic containers, it doesn't degrade with heat, won't absorb food smells over time, and doesn't need replacing when it discolours.

Is a stainless steel lunchbox better than plastic?

For everyday school use, stainless steel outperforms plastic on durability, hygiene and longevity. Plastic containers crack, stain, warp in the dishwasher and absorb food odours over time. A well-made stainless steel lunchbox won't do any of those things. The more useful question for most families is total cost over time. A plastic lunchbox replaced twice a year costs more over three years than a stainless steel system bought once. It also produces more waste. Earthlings systems are independently tested for food safety, dishwasher safe, and designed to be used daily for years.

School Lunch Bundle

A complete kit for school days, ready to go. Save £15.85 vs buying separately.

The Earthlings School Lunch Bundle brings together everything a child needs for a school day, in one set: a Single Compartment Lunchbox with removable dividers, a 250ml Snack Pot, a Titanium Spork, and a 500ml Insulated Water Bottle.

Each piece is designed to work as part of the Earthlings Everyday Adventure System — the snack pot fits neatly inside the lunchbox, the spork handles everything from yoghurt to pasta, and the bottle keeps drinks cold through a long school day. Pack it once in the morning, and everything your child needs is there.

Crafted from food-grade 304 stainless steel and food-grade titanium, with no inks or coatings — just laser-etched logos that won't peel, fade or wash away. Built to move from nursery years through to secondary school and beyond.

FAQ's

Is the bundle BPA-free?

Yes. The lunchbox, spork, bottle and snack pot are completely BPA-free. The only non-metal components are the food-grade silicone seals used to prevent leaks.

Will food taste metallic?

No. Both 304 stainless steel and food-grade titanium are non-reactive and won't transfer flavours or odours to food or drinks.

Why is stainless steel better than plastic?

Unlike plastic containers, stainless steel will not stain, absorb odours, retain flavours or release microplastics into food. It is also highly durable and fully recyclable at the end of its life.

Is the divider in the lunchbox removable?

Yes. The divider can be inserted, repositioned or removed completely depending on how you want to organise food.

Can children open it themselves?

The buckles on the lunchbox are designed to be secure while remaining easy for children to open and close independently.

The snack pot has a simple twist on lid.

Supporting independence is an important part of the Earthlings design philosophy.

What is 304 Stainless Steel

Stainless steel comes in different grades, each designed for different uses. Some grades are better suited to industrial or construction use, while others are specifically chosen for food contact and everyday durability.

304 stainless steel is one of the highest quality and most widely trusted food-grade stainless steels. It offers an excellent balance of strength, rust resistance, safety, and longevity, making it ideal for lunchware and food containers. It’s highly resistant to corrosion, won’t absorb flavours or odours, and is easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

Unlike lower-grade metals, 304 stainless steel is designed to withstand years of daily use without degrading — making it a durable, reusable alternative to plastic.

Is everything in this bundle dishwasher safe?

Yes. The lunchbox, snack pot, spork and bottle are all dishwasher safe. Silicone seals should be handwashed to maintain their shape.

What age is this bundle suitable for?

This bundle is designed for
primary school age (4–11), though the lunchbox, bottle and spork are simple,
timeless designs that continue to be useful well beyond primary school.

Is the lunchbox leakproof?

Yes. The lunchbox features a BPA-free silicone seal in the lid.

Does this bundle include a lunch bag?

Not at launch. A lunch bag will be available as an add-on once it joins the range later in 2026.
