Plastic Jars
Straight-Sided Jars
Our exceptional straight-sided jars are made from fully recyclable PET and available in a huge range of capacities: 50ml, 75ml, 100ml, 150ml, 200ml, 250ml and 300ml.
They’re extremely versatile and suitable for use across a wide variety of sectors including automotive (they’re perfect for housing car waxes and polishes!), personal care (they’re spot-on for creams, lotions and gels!), food (use them to store herbs and spices) and even the fishing industry (they make an ideal container for fishing bait!).
Our straight-sided jars are food safe and the Clear finish means contents are fully visible, which can boost brand aesthetics and increase shelf appeal.
Each jar in the range has a 70/400 neck, which when paired with a compatible screw lid, creates an airtight seal that protects the quality and integrity of your product.
SnapSecure Jars
Pair our multipurpose SnapSecure jars with their corresponding snap-on lid and you have a perfect tamper-evident package. The press-on lids feature a tear-off band that must be removed to access the contents, ensuring your product is fully protected against pilferage and contamination and is child-resistant.
Made from white polypropylene (PP) and fully recyclable, SnapSecure jars are available in a huge range of capacities (14 different sizes, ranging from 20ml to 1Ltr!) and cater effortlessly for a wide array of industries, including food, pharmaceuticals and healthcare supplements.
Tampertainer Jars
Also providing an excellent tamper-evident package when paired with its partner lid is our Tampertainer range.
Made from white PP and fully recyclable, the shape of Tampertainer jars (sloping shoulders with a cylindrical base) makes for super easy dispensing (a guaranteed hit with consumers!) and provides ample space for labelling, to help enhance brand identity and aesthetic appeal.
Versatile and robust, these jars are available in a broad range of capacities (30ml, 75ml, 100ml, 175ml, 250ml & 350ml) and are suitable for use across a wide variety of industries and applications including over-the-counter medications and supplements.
Square Grip Jars
If you’re in the food industry, you won’t want to be without our exceptional square grip jars (also known as shaker jars).
Manufactured from clear PET and certified for use with foodstuffs, these jars feature a moulded easy-grip design. Their 63/400 neck makes them suitable for use with a range of flapper caps and the perfect dispenser of spices and dried herbs.
Fully recyclable after use, the clear finish provides easy visibility of the internal contents, while a recessed central area allows for ample labelling space for adding ingredients, usage instructions and recycling information.
Glass Jars
In the personal care sector? Your business won’t want to be without our standout new range of Amber glass jars – Clarity.
Clarity jars are ideal for storing a wide range of skincare products, including creams, lotions and balms and their luxurious and stylish look provides instant shelf appeal, which is key in an industry where first impressions often dictate whether or not a purchase is made.
Available in a huge range of capacities (from 5ml to 500ml and everything in between!) and compatible with a broad array of lids of various colours and types, we can provide you with a packaging solution that not only performs at its peak, but enhances your branding too.
In addition, we’re delighted that we’re also now able to offer over 20 decorating techniques for our glass products – including screen printing, spraying and frosting – that can then be hot stamped with company logos and branding. This is guaranteed to open up a whole new world of labelling and branding opportunities for your business!
The Amber colour of our Clarity glass jars also helps to protect the quality and integrity of your product. It effectively filters out UV rays, to protect longevity and effectiveness, which is especially helpful for creams, lotions, serums and oils that may be sensitive to light.
All our glass jars are crafted in line with ISO 9001 standards, which reflects our commitment to quality through energy-efficient and sustainable manufacturing practices. They contain 70% PCR as standard (with plans in place to increase this to 85% by 2030) and can all be further recycled after use.
Our team of experienced experts is always there to guide you towards the most cost-effective, sustainable packaging that’s tailor-made for your requirements. We offer personal packaging consultations and a free samples service that are both instrumental in helping our customers find their ideal packaging solution. Please don’t hesitate to contact us with any questions about any of our products or services and see how we can help your business grow.
