Simple yet complicated. Though at first glance, that statement would seem to be a sort of oxymoron; how could something so seemingly simple, say...a plastic jar or plastic container for example, in actuality be multi-faceted and complex? When choosing a plastic jar for your products, the choice can look deceptively easy. This one "looks good". But there are many questions that you need to ask yourself before making any purchasing decisions and if you don't mistakes can be painstakingly costly. So to help you navigate the maze that is plastic jar packaging let me point you in the right direction: Is this a food product? What materials are in your product? What potential reactions will those ingredients cause within the plastic? How large or small would you like the container to be? Will it need to be microwaveable? What type of cap or lid will you need? What label works best with what plastic? Are you planning on placing large orders or hoping to place small orders? Stock jar vs. a Custom Color? The list of questions is long enough to make one want to throw their hands in the air and decide on glass. But don't overreact, we are happy to help you to try and decipher the maze that is plastic jar packaging. So call us.
