What we actually stock for this

Updated

On this page8
A wide packer shelf: 157 containers, 129 of them PET, with one conspicuous gap in the closures.

The shelf, measured

One hundred and fifty-seven containers from 75 to 950 mL with 211 closures. By material 129 PET and 28 HDPE. The dominant necks are 89-400 at 69, 70-400 at 40, 58-400 at 15 and 53-400 at 11, so this is a wide mouth shelf.

The forms

129 single wall jars, 17 packers, 4 spice bottles, 3 specialty jars, 2 square and rectangular, and one each of wide mouth jar and honey bottle. Wide openings throughout, which is what getting capsules in and out needs.

Why PET dominates, and when HDPE is better

PET is clear, light and cheap, and for a dry solid there is nothing to permeate. The 28 HDPE containers are opaque and tougher, which suits a light-sensitive active or a bottle that will be carried around.

Color

52 clear, 34 white, 24 amber, 16 black, 14 blue, 9 green, 6 natural and 2 dark amber. Clear lets a customer see the fill level and the capsules; amber and black remove light for anything that degrades under it.

The closures, by liner

60 carry an HIS induction-seal liner, 36 F217, 28 pressure-sensitive, 26 none, 19 PE foam, 13 standard plastisol and 13 foam. The HIS set is the route to the tamper evidence and moisture barrier this format expects.

And the gap

None of the 211 closures on this shelf is child-resistant, on the one format where the iron rule most often applies. The catalog holds 71 CR closures and 135 of these 157 containers have one in the same neck notation. Shop them directly.

Where to settle the rest of the match

Every container page lists the closures verified against its own neck, so the ordinary thread question is answered there. What is left for you is the seal process, the desiccant sizing and, where it applies, tested child-resistant performance.

Written from federal regulation and from measured catalog data, not from a packaging line. Whether a product crosses the iron threshold is a calculation about your formula and your fill count, and the figures here are the test rather than the answer. Nothing on these pages certifies a package as child-resistant; 16 CFR 1700.15 tests the assembly, not the cap.
