We built it because lunch deserved better.
Started in The Hague in 2019. Now heating real meals in 60+ countries, one steam cycle at a time.
In 2019, Kevin de Krieger got tired of cold lunches and queue politics at the office microwave. He believed steam was the answer. Four years of prototypes, trade shows, and hard resets later — Steambox became real.
Steam is not a gimmick.
It is the right answer.
- Heats evenly from every side — no cold centre, no burnt edge
- Keeps moisture inside the food, not on the walls
- Rice stays loose. Vegetables keep their bite. Sauce stays together.
- Gentle heat preserves more nutrients and flavour
- Works on the train, at your desk, in the van, off-grid
- Radiation blasts from one direction, cold spots unavoidable
- Draws moisture out, dries everything
- Rubbery meat, soggy vegetables, split sauces
- High heat destroys temperature-sensitive vitamins
- Requires a socket and a queue
The idea starts at FIBO
Kevin de Krieger and co-founder Amit Jaura present the first 3D-printed prototype at the FIBO fitness expo in Germany. A Kickstarter launches and sells over 500 units — proof the problem was real, and the solution was wanted.
500+ backers · Kickstarter 2019The world takes notice
Steambox presents at CES Las Vegas at the Holland Pavilion. Over 60 news outlets worldwide cover what they are making. The response is unambiguous: this is not just our problem to solve.
CES Las Vegas · 60+ media worldwideBuilt through a pandemic
COVID disrupts the supply chain. A manufacturer drops out. The team rebuilds from scratch, finds a new production partner, and secures its first investors. €160,000 raised. Most startups would have stopped here.
€160k raised · First investors on boardThousands of real kitchens
Steambox presents at IFA Berlin. Sales begin in 2023. Across 2023 and 2024, thousands of units ship to daily commuters, athletes, field workers, and travellers across more than 60 countries.
IFA Berlin · 60+ countries · 2,400+ ownersThe press picks it up globally
TechCrunch, BBC, Engadget and RTL Nieuws all run stories on Steambox. The device earns a place in the KVK Innovation Top 100 Netherlands. A Dutch startup, noticed worldwide.
TechCrunch · BBC · Engadget · KVK Top 100A deliberate reset
A hard choice: keep selling, or rebuild properly. The battery comes out. The product is rebuilt around steam alone — twice as fast, 40% lighter, €100 cheaper. Everything customers asked for, nothing they did not need.
2× faster · 40% lighter · €100 cheaper · 4.8★Who we built it for
The commuter
You cook Sunday evening because you know the week will be relentless. You want to eat that meal on Thursday as warm and good as it left your kitchen. Steambox does exactly that, at your desk, on the train, without finding a microwave.
The athlete
You prep your meals with care because what you eat matters to how you perform. Cold chicken and limp rice after a session is not an option. Steambox keeps your macros intact and your meal tasting like it should.
Anyone away from a kitchen
The field worker. The nurse on a long shift. The parent in the car. The traveller halfway up a mountain. If you took the time to cook it, Steambox makes sure that time was not wasted the moment you left the house.
Three things we refuse to compromise on
Real food first
The point was never the technology. It was the meal you actually wanted to eat, treated with the same respect you gave it when you cooked it. Every decision starts and ends there.
Honest over impressive
We would rather say less and prove more, because you deserve straight answers and real numbers, not another wellness promise. Our specs are exact. Our claims are tested.
One thing, done properly
We stripped the product back to steam because we would rather do one thing exceptionally well than ten things adequately. Everything we add from here has to earn its place against that standard.
“The easy thing in 2024 was to walk away. I did not want to. We reset, rebuilt, and came back with something I am genuinely proud of. This is the lunchbox I always wanted to use myself.”
I have been part of this since the first sketch in 2019, through the highs of CES in Las Vegas and the hard decision to stop and rebuild. We could have closed the book. I did not, because I still believed in the simple thing we set out to do — to let you eat your own food, at its best, wherever you are.
We keep it honest, we keep it focused, and we keep improving the product you actually use every day. That is a promise I stand behind personally.
Start eating better tomorrow.

How long should I steam to heat up my meal?
On average, it takes about 10-15 minutes to heat up a meal. Try to experiment with different steaming times to find your preference.
Can I cook raw food with Steambox?
Steambox was primarily designed for reheating (already cooked) food. However, it is possible to cook/steam certain types of food (vegetables are no big deal). Please be careful when cooking raw meats, chicken, or fish with Steambox. We do not recommend this.
OMG IS THAT A SELF-HEATING LUNCHBOX?!
Yes it is.
Can I heat up frozen meals with Steambox?
Yes you can! It only takes 20 minutes on average to have your frozen meal
