Perfect for Weddings & Events

Miniature jars and bottles have become extremely popular for wedding favours and event gifts. Their small size makes them easy to personalise while staying affordable for larger guest lists.

Creative ideas include:

• Mini jars filled with local honey or jam

• Bottles of homemade limoncello or gin

• Bath salts or mini candles

• Dried flower confetti jars

• Message-in-a-bottle keepsakes

Because glass is clear and elegant, the contents become part of the decoration itself.

Small Packaging, Big Possibilities

Miniature glass jars and bottles prove that great things really do come in small packages. Their flexibility makes them suitable for businesses, events, gifts, and creative projects alike.

If you’re looking for something beyond the standard jar or bottle, exploring the miniature range at Wares of Knutsford might just spark your next idea.

Led by Bryce Cunningham, Mossgiel has become one of the UK’s most talked-about independent dairies — but its current success was born out of a real challenge. In 2015, following a collapse in milk prices, Bryce made the decision to completely rethink the way the farm operated.

Instead of supplying into a broken system, Mossgiel chose to take control — building its own processing, branding and distribution model, and working directly with customers who value quality, provenance and sustainability.

What started as a response to adversity has grown into a forward-thinking dairy business supplying homes, cafés and retailers across Scotland and beyond.

Where Glass Comes In

As Mossgiel developed its model, packaging became a key part of the story.

Not just how the milk was delivered — but how the brand was seen and understood.

Reusable glass bottles weren’t just a practical choice. They became a visible symbol of everything Mossgiel stands for:

• sustainability
• transparency
• quality

And that’s where Wares of Knutsford came in.

A Partnership Built Around Practicality

We began working with Mossgiel to supply printed glass milk bottles that matched both the operational demands of a working dairy and the strength of their brand.

The goal was simple:
Create a bottle that works hard — and looks the part.

• Durable enough for repeated use
• Consistent and reliable in supply
• Strong, clear branding printed directly onto the glass

For a business built on trust and visibility, that last point really matters. Every bottle leaving the dairy carries Mossgiel’s name, values and identity directly to the customer’s doorstep.

Supporting a Closed-Loop System

Mossgiel’s model relies on reuse — with bottles collected, washed and returned back into circulation.

Glass is ideally suited to this:

• endlessly reusable
• fully recyclable
• resistant to wear over time

By combining this system with printed branding, the bottle becomes more than packaging — it becomes part of the customer experience.

A familiar, trusted item that reinforces the brand with every delivery.

Growing Together

As demand for doorstep delivery and sustainable packaging continues to grow, so too has the need for reliable supply and consistent quality.

At Wares of Knutsford, we’ve seen a significant increase in dairies choosing printed glass bottles — not just for environmental reasons, but because they help producers stand out in a competitive market.

For Mossgiel, the bottle plays a small but important role in a much bigger story:
A modern dairy built on traditional values, doing things differently — and making it work.

Looking to Do Something Similar?

If you’re a dairy, farm shop or drinks producer looking to introduce printed glass bottles, we’d be happy to help.

From initial design through to supply, we work with businesses of all sizes to create packaging that supports both your operations and your brand.

At Wares of Knutsford, glass jars and bottles are at the heart of what we do. Whether you’re preserving homemade jam, bottling craft drinks, storing pantry staples, or preparing gifts, glass packaging offers a timeless and sustainable solution. Our customers use jars for everything from chutneys and pickles to candles, dry food storage and creative projects.

Among the many styles we supply, one range continues to stand out for both its heritage and its quality: the iconic Weck glass jars.

A Favourite Among Preservers and Home Cooks

The Weck range is loved by food makers, home preservers and professional kitchens alike. Their distinctive design – with a glass lid, rubber seal and metal clips – has been trusted for generations.

Unlike standard jars with screw lids, Weck jars use a traditional preserving system that is both beautifully simple and extremely reliable. This makes them perfect for anyone serious about preserving, fermenting or presenting food in style.

At Wares of Knutsford we’re proud to offer a range of jars and bottles to suit every project, and the Weck range is a wonderful example of glass packaging done properly.

Why Do Weck Jars Have Clips and a Rubber Seal?

One of the first things people notice about Weck jars is their unusual lid system.

Instead of a metal lid that screws onto the jar, they use three simple components:

• A glass lid

• A natural rubber seal

• Metal retaining clips

This clever system creates a vacuum seal during the preserving process.

How it works

1. The rubber seal sits between the jar and the glass lid.

2. The metal clips hold everything tightly together during heating or preserving.

3. As the contents cool, a vacuum forms inside the jar.

4. The vacuum pulls the lid down, creating an airtight seal.

Once the jar has cooled, the clips can actually be removed. If the lid stays sealed, you know the vacuum has worked correctly.

It’s a beautifully simple design that has stood the test of time.

Glass jars are incredibly versatile, and their durability means they can last for years when treated with care.

If you’re new to ordering glass packaging in larger quantities, you may have come across the terms bulk pallet and boxed pallet. They’re often used interchangeably in the industry — but they don’t always mean the same thing.

At Wares of Knutsford, we supply both formats, and understanding the difference can help you choose the right option for your production setup.

What Is a Bulk Pallet?

A bulk pallet usually means the glass is packed loose in layers directly onto the pallet, separated by cardboard sheets or dividers, and securely wrapped for transport.

The jars or bottles are not pre-packed into smaller boxes or trays. Instead, they are stacked in protective layers to maximise pallet quantity and shipping efficiency.

Because the glass is stacked directly onto the pallet, bulk pallets are best suited to sites with appropriate handling equipment. This typically includes:

• A forklift truck or powered pallet truck for unloading

• A manual pallet truck for internal movement

• Adequate floor space to access and safely de-layer the pallet

• A suitable area to transfer glass onto your production line

Why choose a bulk pallet?

• Lower cost per unit

• Higher quantity per pallet

• Reduced outer packaging waste

• More efficient for larger-scale production

Bulk pallets are commonly used by contract packers, larger producers and businesses with dedicated storage space and trained warehouse staff.

What Is a Boxed Pallet?

A boxed pallet contains glass that has first been packed into individual boxes. Those boxes are then stacked onto a pallet and securely wrapped for transport.

In some cases, products may be shrink-wrapped in protective packs rather than placed into outer boxes — but the key difference is that the glass is contained in manageable units rather than stacked loose in layers.

This format provides structure, easier handling and greater flexibility for businesses that don’t want to de-layer glass directly from a bulk pallet.

Why choose a boxed pallet?

• Easier and safer manual handling

• No specialist unloading equipment required

• Ideal for sites without forklift access

• Clear pack quantities for simpler stock control

• Easier to move, store and stack internally

• Suitable for smaller production environments

Mixed Box Pallets

We also offer mixed boxed pallets, allowing you to combine different jar or bottle lines onto one pallet. This is particularly useful if you:

• Run multiple product ranges

• Want to trial new formats

• Need flexibility without committing to a full pallet of one item

• Have limited storage space

Mixed box pallets give you wholesale efficiency with greater product variety.

Why the Confusion?

In some parts of the industry, suppliers may describe boxed pallets as “bulk” simply because they are sold in pallet quantities. This can understandably lead to confusion.

When ordering a bulk pallet, it’s important to confirm:

• Whether the glass is loose layered or boxed

• How it will be wrapped and protected

• What equipment is needed for unloading and storage

If you’re moving from buying boxes to buying pallets for the first time, this is especially important.

Which Option Is Right for You?

The right choice depends on:

• Your production volume

• Storage space

• Handling equipment

• Labour setup

• Waste preferences

If you’re unsure, it’s always worth asking to clarify the packing format before dispatch.

Clear communication upfront avoids surprises — and helps ensure the glass arrives in a format that suits your operation.

Delivery Information

All pallet deliveries are made on a kerbside delivery basis. This means the pallet will be delivered to the nearest safe access point at ground level. Drivers are unable to move goods inside your premises, up driveways, into garages or through doorways.

If you do not have forklift access, we can arrange a tail lift vehicle to assist with unloading. Tail lift services must be requested in advance and additional charges may apply.

Residential Addresses

Pallet deliveries to residential addresses require additional planning. Access restrictions, narrow roads, parked vehicles or uneven surfaces can affect delivery. In some cases, a smaller vehicle or tail lift service may be required, and surcharges may apply.

Please ensure:

• Clear and suitable access for an HGV-sized vehicle (unless agreed otherwise)

• Someone is available to receive and inspect the delivery

• You have appropriate equipment or assistance to move the pallet from the kerbside

If you are unsure about access or unloading arrangements, we are always happy to discuss this before dispatch to ensure a smooth delivery.

Final Thoughts

Both bulk and boxed pallets are widely used across the glass packaging industry. The key difference is simply how the glass is packed on the pallet.

Understanding that distinction helps you plan more effectively, manage expectations and choose the most efficient option for your business.

If you ever need clarification on pallet formats or packing methods, just ask the friendly Wares team — it’s always better to check before your delivery arrives.

At Wares of Knutsford, we see this time of year as the “prep season” — when home makers, farm shops and small food businesses start testing recipes and stocking up on reliable glass packaging.

Why glass is ideal for fermenting

Glass is the natural choice for fermentation. It’s:

• non-reactive

• easy to sterilise

• reusable

• and doesn’t absorb flavours or odours

That’s why both home fermenters and professional producers rely on sturdy fermenting jars and Mason glass jars for consistent results.

Mason jars for small batches and recipe testing

Our Mason glass jars are perfect for:

• sauerkraut and kimchi

• overnight oats and gut-health foods

• kombucha starters

• chutneys and early preserves

They’re ideal if you’re experimenting with new flavours or producing smaller batches for markets or farm shops.

Scaling up? We’ve got you covered

Many of our customers start with small packs and quickly scale into larger runs as demand grows. That’s why we offer everything from handy retail packs through to bulk and boxed pallets — so you can grow without changing suppliers.

Whether you’re fermenting at home or producing for sale, reliable jars, consistent sizing and dependable stock make planning much easier.

Get ready for spring

If you’re planning your next batch, now’s a great time to stock up. Explore our full range of fermenting jars and Mason jars and be ready for the busy months ahead.

Why choose Mason Glass Jars?

Mason glass jars are ideal for fermenting because they are made of thick, non-porous glass that does not react with acidic foods, making them perfect for safely preserving vegetables, fruits, and other ferments. Their airtight lids and screw-on bands create a controlled environment that allows gases produced during fermentation, like carbon dioxide, to escape while keeping oxygen and contaminants out, which helps prevent spoilage.

What Is EPR?

The UK Government’s Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation is now in force. It’s a legal requirement applying to all businesses that import, purchase, or use packaging of any kind.

Think of it a little like VAT — but instead of being a tax, it’s a levy designed to fund the collection and recycling of packaging across the UK. These fees help local authorities modernise recycling infrastructure — but they also mean additional packaging costs for the supply chain.

In simple terms: if your company places packaging on the UK market that ends up in household recycling bins, you’re obliged to pay fees based on the type and weight of materials. This includes glass, plastic, metal, wood and other packaging.

If your business turnover is more than £2 million and you use more than 50 tonnes of packaging annually, you’re classed as a large producer and must handle your own reporting and payments.

If you’re smaller, or purchasing packaging from others, you don’t report yourself — but the cost is still built into the supply chain (so ultimately you pay).

- Read the UK Government’s full guidance on EPR for packaging

What EPR Means for Our Industry

EPR has brought significant change and complexity to the UK packaging sector. From manufacturers to wholesalers, retailers and glass suppliers alike — everyone in the chain is affected.

These fees have been in place through 2024 and 2025, and are here to stay into 2026 and beyond, as new “modulated” rates come into effect.

One thing’s clear: EPR is now a permanent part of packaging costs — and all suppliers, including us, must comply.

How We’ve Managed EPR at Wares of Knutsford

We value our customers and understand that businesses face plenty of pressures — so we’ve taken steps to make this transition as smooth as possible. Over the past year we’ve:

• Worked with industry experts, suppliers and DEFRA to monitor developments.

• Absorbed as much of the EPR cost as possible on your behalf, while the system matured.

• Prepared updated documents: a Trade Application & EPR Declaration Form, and revised Wholesale Terms & Conditions to reflect EPR responsibilities.

From January 2026, we’ll begin applying packaging charges in line with the forthcoming modulated government rates. We’re hopeful these will reduce the current £192 per tonne charge on glass, helping to limit the impact on your wholesale and retail costs.

To maintain transparency, EPR charges will appear as a separate line on your invoice or quote.

EPR Pricing at Wares of Knutsford

Under our updated Wholesale Terms & Conditions:

• Charges are calculated by material type and weight, using the latest government rates.

• They will show clearly as a separate line item on your quotation or invoice.

• They apply to all packaging materials (glass, metal, plastic, wood, etc.) unless one of the exemptions applies below.

• We will communicate any future changes to the rate as soon as guidance is published.

What About Retail Customers?

If you’re a smaller business or individual buying in retail quantities — for example, a home jam-maker, chutney producer or candle maker — you don’t need to register or report anything yourself under EPR.

However, the costs still exist further up the supply chain, and like all UK retailers, we must include them in our product pricing.

This means that from 2026, you may notice a small increase in the price of jars, bottles, and packaging, reflecting the new government recycling fees.

We’ll continue doing everything we can to keep these increases modest and maintain fair pricing across all our ranges.

When EPR Charges Don’t Apply

We will not apply EPR charges in the following situations:

1. Your company has turnover above £2M and uses more than 50 tonnes of packaging per year (you are responsible for reporting/fees).

2. Your packaging will not enter household recycling — for example, lab packaging, wine decanting by restaurants, candle makers or sample storage.

3. Your packaged goods are exported outside the UK.

Wholesale customers can declare any of these exemptions when completing our Trade Application & EPR Declaration Form. Retail customers should call us when placing orders to ensure correct pricing.

Our Commitment to You

We remain committed to:

• Keeping any EPR-related increases as fair and modest as possible.

• Minimising any disruption to your business.

• Being fully transparent and compliant as government guidance evolves.

We very much appreciate your ongoing support and trust in Wares of Knutsford Ltd.
If you’d like us to provide an EPR-inclusive quotation for future planning, please contact your account manager. Otherwise, you’ll be automatically re-quoted when placing orders in the New Year.

EPR may not be the most exciting topic — but it’s an important step towards sustainable packaging in the UK. And as always, our focus is on making that transition as smooth as possible for you.

At Wares of Knutsford, we believe Halloween can be just as fun and sustainable. From Weck jars to glass storage jars with lids, our range helps you keep your seasonal treats fresh, reduce waste, and add a touch of style to your kitchen.

Pumpkin Recipes You’ll Love

Instead of scraping your pumpkin straight into the bin, here are a few tasty ways to use up the flesh and seeds:

• Pumpkin Soup – A warming classic for chilly autumn evenings. Store in Weck jars or swing-top bottles to take for lunch.

• Pumpkin Chutney – Spiced and tangy, this preserve is perfect with cheese or cold meats. Pack it into preserving jars for gifting or storing through winter.

• Pumpkin Muffins – Lightly spiced and family-friendly, muffins are a great way to use up smaller amounts. Store them in a glass storage jar with lid to keep them fresh for days.

• Roasted Pumpkin Seeds – Toss with olive oil and spices for a crunchy snack. Present them in mini jam jars as Halloween party favours.

Spooky Drinks in Small Glass Bottles

Don’t forget the seeds and scraps! Pumpkin purée can also be blended into smoothies or milkshakes. For Halloween parties, serve these in small glass bottles labelled as “Witches’ Brew” or “Pumpkin Potion.” They’re fun, reusable, and far more eco-friendly than single-use plastic cups.

Why Choose Weck Jars and Glass Storage Jars?

Glass is a natural fit for sustainability. Unlike plastic tubs, Clip Top jars, Weck jars and glass storage jars with lids are endlessly reusable, safe for hot preserves, and look beautiful on your shelves. They’re also airtight, meaning your chutneys, soups, and sauces stay fresher for longer.

By using jars instead of disposable containers, you’ll cut down on waste and create something you’ll be proud to share — whether it’s a gift for friends or stock for your farm shop.

A Sustainable Halloween Tradition

Halloween is about creativity — and there’s nothing more creative than turning what might have been waste into tasty, useful preserves. Whether you’re handing out snacks in mini jam jars, serving drinks in small glass bottles, or storing chutney in Weck jars, you’re helping to make Halloween a little kinder to the planet.

This year, don’t let your pumpkin go to waste. From carving to cooking to preserving, make the most of every part — and enjoy a Halloween that’s just as sustainable as it is spooky.

At Wares of Knutsford, we supply customers of every size – from hobbyists just starting out to established producers. Here are some of the top benefits of choosing wholesale jars and bottles.

Cost Savings

Buying in bulk almost always means paying less per unit. Wholesale jars and bottles are priced to reward larger orders, so whether you need 200 jars for a market stall or 2,000 jars for a busy production line, you’ll notice the difference in cost per item.

Example: Ordering 12 jars at a time is convenient, but if you move up to a case of 500 jars, the savings quickly add up. Over the course of a year, this can make a huge difference to your bottom line.

Consistency of Supply

There’s nothing worse than running out of jars just when your honey crop is ready, or when your chutneys are cooling on the hob. By keeping a wholesale supply of jars and bottles in stock, you won’t get caught out by seasonal peaks or delivery delays.

This consistency helps you plan your production with confidence – and makes sure your shelves are always full when customers are ready to buy.

Environmental Benefits

Bulk buying is also kinder to the planet. Instead of receiving multiple smaller deliveries with lots of packaging, wholesale orders mean fewer shipments, less cardboard, and a lower carbon footprint.

If sustainability matters to your customers – and more and more shoppers say it does – then buying in wholesale quantities is another way to show your eco-friendly values in action.

Professional Image

Presentation matters. Having a uniform supply of jars and bottles means your products always look professional and consistent. From matching glass jars for your honey range to smart swing-top bottles for cordials, wholesale quantities help you keep everything looking polished and reliable.

Saves Time and Stress

Every order you place takes time – from checking stock levels to arranging delivery. By moving to wholesale quantities, you’ll spend less time worrying about running out of jars and more time focusing on the parts of your business you love, whether that’s making, selling, or meeting customers.

Flexible Options

Buying wholesale doesn’t have to mean committing to thousands of jars at once. At Wares of Knutsford, we offer wholesale pricing across a wide range of order sizes, so you can find the right balance for your needs. Whether you’re making a cautious first step into selling your preserves, or scaling up production, we’ve got flexible options to suit you.

Take a look at our Wholesale offerings now!

Build Your Own Boxed Pallet

One of the things our customers love most is that we don’t lock you into buying a full pallet of just one product. With Wares of Knutsford, you can make up a boxed pallet from a mix of different jars and bottles.

That means you can order exactly what you need – perhaps a selection of honey jars, jam jars, and swing-top bottles – all delivered together as a pallet. This flexibility gives you the benefits of wholesale pricing and pallet delivery without having to overstock on one single jar type.

Perfect for Seasonal Peaks

From summer jam-making to the busy run-up to Christmas, many small businesses see seasonal surges in demand. Having a wholesale stock of jars and bottles on hand means you can meet that extra demand without panic buying.

Final Thoughts

Wholesale buying isn’t just about saving money – it’s about peace of mind, professionalism, and being prepared for growth. Whether you’re a smallholder selling honey at your local farmers’ market, or a larger business supplying farm shops across the country, wholesale jars and bottles are a smart investment.

At Wares of Knutsford, we’re proud to supply everything from traditional honey jars and preserving bottles to stylish swing-top bottles and wedding favours – all available in wholesale quantities.

Wholesale Glass Jars & Bottles

At Wares of Knutsford, we believe in combining tradition with practicality. That’s why our wide range of glass jars and bottles — from Glass sweet jars to glass storage jars with lids — are the perfect solution for a waste-free Halloween. Reusable, recyclable, and beautifully designed, they’re kinder to the planet and add a stylish touch to your celebrations.

Halloween Treats in Glass Sweet Jars

Forget plastic tubs — this year, store your Halloween sweets in glass sweet jars. Their clear glass makes the colours of your treats stand out, and with a ribbon or a spooky sticker, they instantly become part of your decorations. Fill them with orange and black sweets, candy corn, or homemade biscuits for a centrepiece that doubles up as storage.

For trick-or-treaters, why not pre-fill smaller jars so each child gets their own special treat? Not only is it safer and more hygienic, but the jars can be washed and reused long after Halloween is over.

Glass Storage Jars with Lids for Waste-Free Trick or Treating

Glass storage jars with lids are perfect for portioning sweets and keeping them fresh. Instead of handing out handfuls of plastic-wrapped treats, you can offer something more thoughtful and sustainable. Larger jars also work brilliantly for Halloween party buffets — fill them with marshmallows, toffee apples, or spooky-themed snacks so guests can help themselves.

The lids keep everything sealed tightly, so leftovers can be saved for later without going stale. And when the sweets are gone, the jars can be repurposed for everyday kitchen storage.

Mini Jam Jars: Perfect for Party Favours

If you’re hosting a Halloween party, mini jam jars make perfect little favours. Fill them with sweets, chocolates, or even homemade treats like toffee sauce or pumpkin spice butter. Add a label or tie a ribbon around the lid, and you’ve got a gift your guests will love.

They’re also great for children’s parties — portion-sized jars reduce waste and make tidying up much easier.

Small Glass Bottles as Potion Drinks

Halloween and potions go hand in hand! Small glass bottles can be turned into fun potion drinks for parties. Fill them with coloured juices (green apple for witches’ brew, red berry for vampire’s blood, orange squash for pumpkin punch) and add a themed label for extra magic.

These bottles can also be used decoratively — filled with glitter, beads, or even dried herbs to create a spooky “apothecary shelf” for your Halloween display.

Preserving the Pumpkin: No Waste Here

Every year, thousands of pumpkins are carved for Halloween — but most of the edible flesh ends up in the bin. This year, why not make the most of your pumpkin by cooking up some tasty recipes?

• Pumpkin soup: A warming autumn favourite.

• Spiced pumpkin chutney: A delicious preserve that pairs perfectly with cheese.

• Pumpkin muffins: Great for lunchboxes or party treats.

Store your creations in Weck jars or preserving jars for a rustic, eco-friendly finish. These jars don’t just look beautiful — they’re also reusable and designed for long-term storage.

Glass Jar Decorations

Glass jars aren’t just practical — they’re great for decorating too. Here are a few ideas:

• Paint spooky faces on jars and pop in a tealight for instant lanterns.

• Fill jars with autumn leaves, fairy lights, or pinecones for a cosy autumn display.

• Layer coloured sand or beads in clear jars for a fun Halloween craft with kids.

Why Choose Glass Over Plastic?

Choosing glass over plastic this Halloween isn’t just about style — it’s about sustainability. Glass jars and bottles are:

• Reusable – use them year after year.

• Recyclable – endlessly recyclable without loss of quality.

• Safer – no chemicals leaching into food.

• Stylish – beautiful, traditional designs that enhance your home.

By switching to glass sweet jars, glass storage jars with lids, mini jam jars, small glass bottles, and Weck jars, you’ll reduce waste while creating a Halloween celebration that’s memorable for all the right reasons.

Final Thought

Halloween doesn’t have to mean mountains of plastic waste. With a little imagination, glass jars and bottles can transform your celebrations — whether it’s filling a glass sweet jar with colourful treats, serving drinks in small glass bottles, or preserving your pumpkin in Weck jars.

This year, make Halloween sustainable, spooky, and stylish. Because when it comes to reducing waste, every little change counts.

This year, the show takes place from Thursday 23rd October to Saturday 25th October 2025, and we at Wares of Knutsford are delighted to be exhibiting. As long-standing suppliers of glass jars and bottles, we’ve recently developed a growing focus on supporting beekeepers, farmers and honey producers. Our range of high-quality glass honey jars has already become a favourite with customers, from small hobbyist beekeepers right through to larger producers who supply farm shops and retailers.

Our Story – Wares Cares

Wares of Knutsford has been trading since 1992, supplying a wide range of glass jars, bottles, lids and packaging solutions to individuals, small businesses, and wholesale buyers. From traditional preserving jars to specialist bottles, we’ve always been committed to helping customers find exactly what they need.

What makes us different is our service. We genuinely care about the people we work with – our slogan is “Wares Cares” – and it’s something we live by. Whether you’re ordering a single pack of jars or a full pallet, you’ll always find our team friendly, helpful and ready to respond quickly to your queries.

Honey Jars We’re Showcasing

At the National Honey Show 2025, we’ll be showcasing some of our best-selling honey jars. Each design has been chosen with beekeepers and honey producers in mind, balancing practicality with presentation.

Screw Top Honey Jars

A timeless classic, the screw top honey jar is a staple for both traditional and modern producers. Available in a range of sizes, these jars are versatile, reliable, and easy to seal securely. They’re perfect for everyday honey sales and packaging.

Twist Off Honey Jars

With their smooth sides and practical twist lids, these jars are popular for both farm shops and gifting. Their simple design makes them ideal for adding personalised branding and labels, helping your honey stand out on the shelf.

Hexagonal Honey Jars

The hexagonal jar is always a favourite at events like the National Honey Show. Its elegant, six-sided design not only looks beautiful but also nods to the natural shape of the honeycomb – a subtle touch that customers love. These jars are often chosen for premium honeys and gift packs.

All our honey jars are made from high-quality glass, available with a choice of lids, and packed securely to ensure they arrive safely.

Supporting Beekeepers and Farmers

We know that beekeepers and honey producers often need more than just a jar – they need flexibility, reliability and value. That’s why we offer:

• Mixed Pallet Options – Instead of ordering a full pallet of just one jar, you can create a pallet with a variety of different jar types and sizes. This is particularly useful for producers who want to experiment with different styles, or who sell both retail and wholesale quantities.
• Wholesale Pricing – Whether you’re buying in bulk or just starting out, our pricing is designed to support your business as it grows.
• Friendly, Helpful Service – We pride ourselves on getting back to customers quickly. If you’re unsure which jar will work best, or need help with bulk ordering, our team is always just a phone call or email away.
• Experience You Can Trust – With over 30 years of supplying jars and bottles, we understand the needs of producers. From small-scale hobbyists to commercial farms, we’ve built strong relationships across the industry.
