design idea - tupper-aware

I’ve a lot of plastic food boxes at home that have been manufactured with a return lip around the edge of the pot. Every time I put a box in the dishwasher or on the draining board, the lip fills with water. I then have to dry it and everything it’s sprayed with water as it was being lifted up. So I’ve been looking at ways of manufacturing the lip so that it self drains. A simple, slightly angled lip with breaks around the edge, would mean it self-drains whilst still providing rigidity.

love the blog. This is undoubtedly one of my biggest frustrations. Tupperware - great idea but badly executed. A total bugger to clean and dry.
