Ecococoon Lunch Bag Review: What to Know Before Buying

Aug 31, 2026

If you're tired of lunch bags that look roomy until you actually put a lunch box inside, the EcoCocoon lunch bag takes a more practical approach. It is designed around the lunch boxes kids actually carry, with enough space for the box itself plus snacks, fruit and an ice brick. The Australian brand also uses recycled polyester and a PVC-free lining, which will appeal to parents trying to cut down on unnecessary plastic.

At BentoBliss, we stock the EcoCocoon insulated lunch bag in a range of colours and patterns. Here's a closer look at its size, storage, insulation and everyday practicality, plus which lunch boxes it works with.

What Is EcoCocoon?

Ecococoon is an Australian lunchware brand focused on reusable food storage for families. Its range includes bento lunch boxes, insulated lunch bags and food containers, with an emphasis on reusable materials and practical designs for school and everyday use. The Ecococoon Insulated Lunch Bag is designed to work alongside the brand's bento boxes, particularly the Bento 5, rather than being a one-size-fits-all lunch carrier.

EcoCocoon Insulated Lunch Bag Review

The EcoCocoon Insulated Lunch Bag is a spacious option designed to carry a full lunch box plus the extras that tend to end up loose in a school bag. Inside, there's room for fruit, snack pots, and an ice brick, while the front and internal pockets give smaller items their own place.

What we like:

  • The 27 x 21 x 11cm internal size gives you enough room for a full lunch without cramming everything in

  • Two internal mesh pockets are useful for ice packs, napkins and small snacks

  • The front zip pocket keeps utensils and little extras separate

  • The detachable handle clips onto a backpack or school bag when your child's hands are full

  • Made from recycled polyester with a foil-polyester lining and no PVC

  • Available in fun prints as well as simpler colours like Black Onyx and Emerald Green

What to know before buying:

  • It is hand-wash recommended, so it isn't the best choice if you want a lunch bag you can throw straight into the washing machine

  • The spacious shape is useful for a full lunch, but it is larger than a simple lunch box carrier

  • The insulation helps keep food cooler for longer, but you'll still want an ice brick for lunches that need to stay cold throughout the day.

Priced from $36.95 at BentoBliss, it sits in the mid-range for insulated lunch bags and gives you enough room to carry more than just the lunch box.

Which Lunch Boxes Fit the EcoCocoon Lunch Bag?

The EcoCocoon lunch bag is designed to fit the brand's own Bento Lunch Box 5, but you aren't limited to using an EcoCocoon lunch box. It also fits selected b.box, Bentgo, Yumbox, OmieBox, and Avanti lunch boxes, making it a more versatile option if you've already bought a lunch box from another brand.

For example, it fits the Avanti Yum Yum Lunch Box with Insulated Food Jar, as well as the OmieBox V2 and OmieBox UP. That makes it a useful option if you want to change the bag without replacing the lunch box too.

Is the EcoCocoon Lunch Bag Easy to Clean?

The EcoCocoon lunch bag is designed to be wiped clean and dried thoroughly after use, with hand washing with a mild based detergent and soft cloth recommended when it needs a deeper clean. That is worth knowing if your child's lunch tends to get messy. The foil-polyester lining is practical for everyday spills, but the hand-wash recommendation means it needs a little more care than a machine-washable lunch bag.

A Note on Ecococoon Lunch Boxes

If you've searched for an Ecococoon lunch box to pair with the insulated bag, it's worth knowing that the Ecococoon lunch bag is designed around the brand's own bento range. If you're using a different lunch box, check the dimensions first to make sure it fits comfortably with your snacks and ice brick.

For bento-style lunch boxes, our B.Box lunch box range and MontiiCo lunch boxes offer similar options for school lunches, with different compartment layouts and sizes to suit different appetites.

Is Ecococoon Worth It?

For families already using an Ecococoon Bento Lunch Box, the matching insulated lunch bag makes sense. It fits the lunch box properly, leaves space for snacks and an ice brick, and adds useful pockets without becoming unnecessarily bulky. The main limitation is that it's designed around the Ecococoon system. If you're using a different lunch box, check the dimensions before buying rather than assuming it will fit.

If you want more flexibility or are comparing different lunch bag styles, our Insulated Lunch Bags collection has plenty of alternatives to choose from.
