You can use and freeze glass containers. Some have plastic lids, but some are moving to alternative materials already.

We just got a set of ceramic storage containers with tempered glass lids and silicone gasket seal. Sadly the frame for the glass lid is still plastic but it's a step in the right direction at least, I guess next steps would be a stainless steel metal frame or fully silicone frame but I bet it's cost prohibitive
