EP-5311 Plant-Based Screw Top Jar – Sustainable Container and Cap

Eco-Friendly Packaging

This container is made from a sustainable, plant-based material, derived from sugarcane. This material is a renewable HDPE bioplastic. The process follows harvesting sugarcane, extracting the ethanol from the plant, and converting that ethanol into a plant-based HDPE. The production of our sugarcane material is about 97% carbon neutral. This is due to the CO2 swallowed from the Earth’s atmosphere by the sugarcane plant. Another benefit of these containers is that they are 100% recyclable and can be fed into the material cycle together with other HDPE materials as it is classified as a #2 recyclable.

Lightweight Threaded Jars

This container is a single-walled jar. Single wall jars are thin and lightweight. They’re called “single wall jars” to distinguish them from the 2-piece double wall jars. It is strong and impact-resistant.

Tamper Evident Foil Seals and Side-Seal Screw Top Jars

These jars come with the option of a classic side seal cap or a tamper evident foil seal cap. A side-seal cap is often used to prevent gasoline vapors from escaping and to prevent water, dust and debris from entering the container.

The foil seal cap comes with tamper-evident foil seals that also create an airtight and waterproof seal under a twist and turn cap. These foil seals are usually administered with an induction machine.
