This 1.5L clear glass barrel jar is supplied for bulk pickles, gherkins, olives, preserved vegetables, and brine-based foods. The barrel profile gives a wide filling mouth and a stable base, while the twist lug finish accepts matched caps for vacuum sealing after hot fill. The jar is shipped empty for food processors, co-packers, and private label programs. Closure options include BPA-free liners for brands that require a BPA-free packaging statement.

The wide mouth handles whole cucumbers, long beans, mixed pickles, and large olives. The barrel body also works for chutney, relish, and fermented vegetables when the process and closure are matched correctly.

Jar only; caps supplied separately or matched at order stage
The glass body is chemically inert to brine, acetic acid, and salt. It will not transfer taste or odor to the product. Brine stays in contact with glass rather than a reactive lining, which helps protect the original flavor of pickled and fermented foods.
The twist lug finish is designed for matched lug caps. When hot-filled and sealed with the correct cap, liner, and vacuum button, the jar can retain vacuum during cooling. Cap fit is checked against the jar finish to support seal performance and reduce leakage.
The glass jar itself does not contain BPA. For closures, we offer BPA-free liner and plastic cap options. Because “BPA-free” claims depend on the complete closure specification, confirm the exact cap and liner before printing this statement on retail packaging.
Twist lug caps are commonly used for pasteurized pickles and preserves. For fermented products that produce CO2, a venting process or a different closure system may be required. This jar is not pressure-rated unless a specific closure and process are agreed in writing.

Artwork should be sent as AI or PDF. Pantone matching is available for brand colors. The large barrel surface gives enough area for ingredient panels, brand marks, and regulatory text.
Lug caps can be supplied in different colors and finishes. Liners are selected based on brine acidity, salt level, and pasteurization process. Vacuum buttons are available for hot-filled products.
Large jars are more sensitive to wall thickness variation and annealing stress. We check wall distribution and run annealing stress tests to lower the risk of cracks during hot fill, cooling, and pallet vibration.
Neck finish, body diameter, and height are measured during production. This keeps jars compatible with filling lines, capping heads, and label applicators.
Samples are tested with matched lug caps and liners. Vacuum retention is checked after hot filling to confirm the closure performs as expected for brine-packed products.
Packed cartons and pallets are inspected before loading. Inspection records can be provided on request.
Jars are packed in export cartons with full-depth dividers. This limits glass-to-glass contact and protects the barrel body during ocean freight.
Cartons are stacked on pallets and stretch-wrapped. Pallet height and weight limits are reviewed before booking because 1.5L glass jars are heavier per carton than smaller formats.
A container loading plan is issued before dispatch. It shows pallet count, carton count, and placement for efficient freight use.
1.5L is the nominal capacity. Actual fill volume depends on product type, brine ratio, and headspace requirements.
Send your cap drawing or sample if you plan to use your own closure. We will check the lug dimensions against the jar finish.
For pickled and fermented products, test with your actual brine recipe and process. This helps confirm cap liner compatibility, vacuum retention, and shelf life expectations.
It can be used for fermented vegetables, but fermentation produces CO2. The closure and process must allow for gas management. The jar is not pressure-rated unless a specific closure system is agreed.
The glass jar does not contain BPA. We offer BPA-free liner and plastic cap options. Confirm the full closure specification before making a BPA-free claim on your packaging.
Yes. We match metal or plastic lug caps to the jar finish. Liner selection depends on your brine recipe and pasteurization process.

Stock samples can be sent for evaluation. Courier cost is normally paid by the buyer. Custom samples are discussed after specification review.
MOQ depends on stock, decoration, and cap requirements. Contact our sales office for current figures.
Yes. Custom mold development is possible. Provide a drawing, sample, or target fill volume for review.
Lead time is confirmed after deposit and artwork approval. It varies by quantity, decoration, and production schedule.
