Brand

Decor was acquired by Marlin Brands, a subsidiary of Oaktree Capital Management and Alceon Group in April 2019. Decor is committed to continuing to manufacture and design in Australia, and have signed a 10-year contract with our local manufacturer in Melbourne, with plans to expand the brand and increase Aussie jobs and exports.

Product

Decor’s head office and manufacturing facilities are based in Melbourne, Australia. Our products are designed in Australia and the majority of Decor products are made in Australia, however some Decor products are made in China under Decor supervision. You can be assured wherever a Decor product is made, it is made to the same Decor quality.

The majority of Decor products are dishwasher safe. To check if a product is safe for the dishwasher, look for the below icon on the base of the product:

The majority of Decor’s food storage products are freezer safe. To check if a product is safe for the freezer, look for the below icon on the base of the product:

Please note to be careful handling products when they are frozen.  Freezing can cause products to become temporarily stiff making it difficult to remove their lids.  If the product is dropped or knocked straight out of the freezer it could break.

Hint:  After taking a product from the freezer, we recommend that you allow it to rest at room temperature for a few minutes or run warm water over it for a few seconds. The lid will then be easy to remove. DO NOT run water over a glass storer that has been in the freezer.

The majority of Decor’s food storage products are microwave safe. To check if a product is safe for the microwave, look for the below icon on the base of the product:

Note: Ensure to follow all guidelines for microwaving provided with product.

Decor does not have a Life Time Guarantee on our products.

We recommend that all of our products are washed prior to first use. If a slight odour still remains, you shouldn’t be concerned. We recommend adding a few drops of vanilla essence to the container, then fill with warm water and let it soak for a couple of hours.

The lids on Decor storage containers are designed to fit well for a better seal. Occasionally when a plastic lid is separated from its base, it can shrink to a degree causing it to become harder to put back on the container. The solution is to run the lid under hot water, which will cause the plastic to soften slightly, making it easier to put back on the base. Once on, leave it overnight to obtain a perfect fit.

Microwaving foods high in sugar, oil, fat, tomatoes, carrots, broccoli or curries may mark or stain plastic, but will not affect its safety or usability. To help reduce marking or blistering try to avoid long cooking times, foods high in oil, fat and sugar and stir regularly when reheating food in the microwave.

Hint:  Applying a paste of baking soda and water and then rinsing thoroughly may help reduce discolouration if it has occurred.

Decor uses stickers that are easy to remove without leaving residue. If some residue is left on the product, we recommend using Mr Sheen or Citrus Spray to remove the residue.
