By tackling the main drawbacks of current lunchboxes found by survey and research, the Xpress Bowl encourages a lifestyle switch to using reusable lunchboxes for takeaway meals by meeting the needs of busy Singaporeans.

The Xpress Bowl is specially catered for tertiary-level education students and working adults, as it is collapsible for efficient storage and the silicone lining can be flipped inside out for easy cleaning. It can also be carried using its handles and is even equipped with a utensil set for maximum convenience. These functionalities are all packed in one sleek and modern design - The Xpress Bowl.
