With a 118mm top diameter, these lids are specifically sized to fit NextWave Soup Containers in the 26oz and 32oz formats, providing a reliable cover for liquid-heavy dishes served in larger container sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vented design allows steam to escape during and after packing, helping to reduce condensation build-up inside the container. This is particularly relevant for hot soups, broths, and stews, where trapped steam can soften lids or degrade container integrity during transit. Each case contains 500 lids, making them well-suited to commercial kitchen environments where throughput is consistent and stock management is straightforward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eManufactured from paper-based materials, the White Paper Vented Lids 118mm are suitable for direct food contact and rated for use with hot food, cold food, freezer storage, and microwavable applications under standard foodservice conditions. The white finish provides a clean, neutral presentation that is compatible with a range of branding approaches used in foodservice operations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical uses\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe White Paper Vented Lids 118mm are selected where larger-format soup containers require a secure, vented cover for takeaway and delivery service. Their compatibility with the 26oz and 32oz soup container range makes them a practical choice for operations serving generous portions of hot liquid dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHot soups and broths served by cafés, delis, and quick-service restaurants where larger portions are offered as main meal options\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eStews and casseroles prepared for takeaway counters and delivery-led menus, where a vented lid helps manage steam release during transit\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMeal-prep and catering portions produced by corporate catering operations, ghost kitchens, and multi-site food businesses using standardised 26oz or 32oz containers\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eCold liquid dishes such as chilled gazpacho or cold broths used in deli and food-to-go formats, where freezer-safe properties are also relevant\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eMicrowavable meal formats where the container and lid need to withstand reheating, either on-site or by the end customer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eVented design reduces condensation during transit: The vent in the lid allows steam to escape rather than accumulate inside the container. For hot soups and liquid dishes, this helps maintain lid integrity and reduces the risk of the lid softening or distorting during delivery, contributing to a more consistent presentation at the point of service.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eSized for larger soup container formats: The 118mm diameter is specifically compatible with NextWave Soup Containers 26oz and 32oz.

This is particularly relevant for multi-site operations where visual consistency across locations supports brand standards.\u003c\/li\u003e\n \u003cli\u003eHigh case quantity supports commercial throughput: With 500 lids per case, this product is well-matched to the throughput volumes typical of commercial kitchens and delivery operations, reducing the frequency of reordering and simplifying stock management.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"NextWave","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62823214481779,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0995\/6232\/4339\/files\/WhitePaperVentedLids118mm_c33e9d59-ca3b-466a-b475-d7a940bf37ea.jpg?v=1778284806","url":"https:\/\/next-wave.uk\/products\/white-paper-vented-lids-118-mm","provider":"Next Wave","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
