In addition to formula powder, you can also store other food in the Mepal Mio formula tower.
The formula tower is made of food-safe polypropylene, making it suitable for various types of food.
Thanks to the airtight seal, the contents stay fresh for longer.
If you find the containers a bit too small (3 x 120 ml), the Snack Tower (100 ml + 175 ml + 275 ml) is a great alternative.
Yes, only the top part is always needed to properly close the container.
This top part also functions as a funnel that fits perfectly onto the Mepal Mio baby bottle, allowing formula powder to be poured in easily without spilling.
