Kitchen Foil Roll Buyer’s Guide
Kitchen foil is something we don’t realise how much we need until we run out, so it’s worth stocking up on your favourite to ensure you never run out! Useful for a huge variety of tasks, the addition of kitchen foil can transform a roast dinner, while also keeping your leftovers fresh for the next day!
Not sure what to look for when it comes to this everyday essential? Take a look at this buyer’s guide.
Size
Kitchen foil will be measured in both centimetres and metres. The width is measured in cm and the length in metres. Most foil rolls are between 30-50cm wide, and there may be up to 100m of foil included.
For larger tasks (such as wrapping a Christmas turkey), you’ll need wider foil than you would for wrapping up your packed lunch, so it’s worth bearing this in mind before you make a purchase.
Thickness
The thickness of the foil is also important, as foil that’s too flimsy will tear easily and be very hard to use. The thickness is typically measured in micrometres (microns). Flimsy supermarket foils may measure under 10 microns, while those designed for more heavy-duty tasks will measure over 15 microns.
Quality
The quality generally comes down to the thickness of the foil you purchase, as anything too weak and flimsy will tear easily. Very heavy-duty foil can often be used a couple of times before disposal, but it’s worth reading reviews before you make a purchase.
