Ikea 365 has a bunch of shapes with differing lids incl. silicon and bamboo. Lids can be bought separately for replacement
Regrettably all the IKEA stuff is made in China. Pyrex still makes glass containers with plastic lids, as does Anchor Hocking. Corningware/Corelle is also still a thing.
I'll have a look. Most IKEA is complete junk but sometimes their products are ok. I hate MDF so much I basically never look at them, awful carcinogenic material with all of the disadvantages of wood and none of the benefits.
the 365 stuff is glass food storage containers, so no MDF. I pretty much use them for the parts, which is the biggest hassle when going eco. Drives me insane how many people sell "eco" glass food storage AND NO REPLACEMENT FUCKING LIDS
Yeah I just mean their furniture.
I know why it doesn't happen but I'd like to see gov legislate standard jar mouth dimensions. So everything is interoperable using ground glass surfaces like scientific glassware.
Make whatever shape jar you like or whatever but if it's a "cold food low volume" or whatever it should just have a standard lid/thread/mating surface.
There's not really any good reasons to allow companies to make things that don't work together.
