200ml PET jar

As almost nothing is impossible for PET plastic, it is the go-to packaging material for supplement providers. These bottles and jars can accommodate a series of dry and water-based products, like powders, pills, lotions, drinks and gummies. Before you buy your PET containers in bulk, make sure to test if this type of plastic is a good choice for your product.

That’s right! Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a fully recyclable material. After serving its purpose, a bottle made from this type of plastic can be transformed into a different container or used as a component in clothing, homeware, and much more.

Regulatory agencies such as the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have approved PET for food packaging purposes. To be extra careful, store your PET bottles and jars in a cool and dry area.

Yes, but while PET plastic is impervious, not all types of caps for your container will provide a watertight seal. For liquids and water-based products, you might want to use EPE or induction liners rather than unlined caps or caps with pressure-sensitive (PS 22) liners.

Whatever is dry or solid. The pressure-sensitive liner creates a protective barrier from moisture for your supplement powders, pills and gummies. The seal needs a dry bottle surface, though, so the PS 22 liner is not recommended for liquids.

One of the most affordable options, the EPE is a multi-purpose liner that effectively prevents leaks. You can safely use it for your water-based supplements. However, keep in mind that this liner cannot create an airtight seal like the induction liner will.

This is what you’re looking for if your products require a hermetic or airtight closure. The induction liner creates the most secure seal of all. Any tampering with the opening is readily apparent as the liner is applied with an induction sealing machine and is impossible to reseal. Use with your dry and wet supplements that need special attention. The liner comes with a choice of plain or printed with a message like “sealed for your protection”.

If you’re looking for a child-resistant cap (CRC), the pharmacy cap should be your choice. The user must push it down and twist to open, which makes it challenging for a child. Since this cap type is required for certain over-the-counter drugs, it is generally a good enough seal to protect from external contamination.
