Choosing the right packaging is a key decision for any business. Glass jars with lids are a smart choice, offering safety, sustainability, and strong visual appeal. However, with so many options available, how do you select the best one for your products? Let’s look at the key factors NZ businesses should consider.


Assess Your Product’s Needs

Start by thinking about the product you want to package:

  • Size and volume. Choose a jar that holds the correct amount without excessive space.

  • Product consistency. Liquids may need tighter sealing than solids.

  • Light sensitivity. If your product is sensitive to light, consider tinted glass options.

Matching the jar to the product ensures both functionality and a positive customer experience.


Choose the Right Lid Type

The lid is just as important as the jar:

  • Screw caps. Easy for customers to open and close securely.

  • Lug caps. Provide a tight seal for food products.

  • Specialty closures. For products requiring pumps or dispensers.

Think about how your customers will interact with the packaging and select a lid that balances convenience and safety.


Consider Brand and Aesthetic

Your packaging reflects your brand identity. Glass jars come in a variety of styles:

  • Classic shapes for a timeless look.

  • Unique designs to stand out on shelves.

  • Label-friendly surfaces for clear branding.

The right jar can enhance brand recognition and encourage repeat purchases.
