Expert Review and Insights
It’s the little details that truly elevate food presentation, and these APS jars are a perfect example. They have a substantial, quality feel that turns a simple dessert or condiment into something special. They’re robust enough for the back-of-house reality but have the authentic charm you want front-and-centre on a deli counter or table.

- Fiddly in a Rush: The metal clips can be a bit tricky during peak service hours.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Rutland Pantry, a popular farm shop in Oakham, wanted to improve the shelf appeal of their homemade jams and curds. Their existing jars felt generic and didn't reflect the premium quality of the product inside.
"Switching to these jars was one of our best decisions. They look absolutely fantastic on the shelves, the seal is reliable, and customers keep commenting on how lovely they are. It’s the little touch of class we were looking for."
Robert Miller – Proprietor
After introducing the APS GH387 preserving jar, the shop reported a 30% uplift in sales of their preserved goods within the first quarter.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
First Use & Prep
- Before first use, wash all jars, lids, and rubber seals in warm, soapy water or run through a dishwasher cycle.
- Ensure jars and lids are completely dry before filling, particularly if using for dry goods like herbs or spices.
- For preserving, always check the rubber seals are pliable and free from nicks to ensure an airtight seal.
- When attaching the clips, make sure they are hooked securely under the lid's rim to apply even pressure.
Keeping Them Perfect
- The entire jar set is dishwasher safe. Place clips and seals in the cutlery basket to prevent them from getting lost.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals on the glass to prevent scratching and maintain clarity.
- Store rubber seals separately in a cool, dark place when not in use to prolong their elasticity and lifespan.
- Stack jars carefully without lids attached to avoid chipping the delicate rims during storage.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Are the lids and clips included with the jars?
A: Yes, this product is sold as a complete set. Each box contains 12 jars, and every jar comes with its own glass lid, rubber seal, and two metal clips.
Q: Can these jars be used for hot-fill canning and preserving?
A: Absolutely. The design with the rubber seal and metal clips is specifically for creating an airtight vacuum seal, making them perfect for preserving jams, chutneys, and pickles.
Q: Are the jars and lids fully dishwasher safe?
A: Yes, the glass jar, glass lid, and metal clips are all commercial dishwasher safe. For best results and to avoid losing them, place the smaller clips and seals in the cutlery basket.
Q: What is the exact capacity of a single 140ml glass storage jar?
A: Each jar holds exactly 140ml, which is equivalent to about 5 fluid ounces. It's an ideal size for individual portions of desserts, starters, or condiments.
Q: Can I use these jars in the microwave?
A: The glass jar component is microwave-safe. However, you must always remove the metal clips and rubber seal before placing it in a microwave.
Q: Are these jars stackable for easy storage?
A: They can be stacked, but their rounded shape means they should be stacked with care, especially in a busy commercial fridge. Stacking without the lids on is often more stable.
Q: What material are the seals made from?
A: The seals are made from natural rubber, which provides an excellent, pliable seal for preserving freshness and ensuring an airtight closure.
Q: Is the glass tempered or toughened?
A: The jars are made from high-quality, durable glass designed for catering use, making it resistant to the knocks and bumps of a professional kitchen, though it is not tempered like cookware.
The APS Stamp: Consistency in Every Detail
Choosing APS for your tableware is more than a simple purchase; it's an investment in operational consistency and brand trust. For over 85 years, APS has been a go-to partner for catering professionals across Europe, respected for blending practical German engineering with thoughtful, aesthetic design. These jars perfectly embody that philosophy. They aren't just glass containers; they are precision tools engineered for the demanding pace of a commercial kitchen. This translates to uniform sizing for flawless portion control, resilient glass that endures endless cycles through the dishwasher, and a timeless design that complements any decor. This built-in reliability means fewer re-orders, less breakage, and a consistently professional presentation that reinforces your quality standards, day in and day out.
Explore more from APSMore Than a Lid: The Secret to a Fresher Seal
You might see the rubber ring and metal clips on this Weck style glass jar 140ml and think they're just for looks, but they're the secret to its superior preserving power. Think of it like a perfectly tailored suit versus one off the rack. A standard screw-top jar can sometimes seal unevenly or let in tiny amounts of air over time. This Weck-style system, however, uses the clips to apply uniform pressure all the way around the rubber ring. As your hot-filled contents cool, a vacuum is created, pulling the lid down tight and forcing air out. This locks in freshness, flavour, and colour far more effectively. It's a time-tested method that professionals trust for a reason – it just works.
Who Should Buy This?
- Artisan Cafés: Ideal for serving individual portions of overnight oats, yoghurts, or stylish layered desserts and mousses.
- Gastro Pubs & Bistros: A beautifully rustic way to present homemade pâtés, chutneys, and individual starters directly to the table.
- Delicatessens & Farm Shops: Perfect for packaging and selling your own signature jams, pickles, and preserves for a professional retail look.
- Event Caterers & Hotels: The perfect vessel for sophisticated buffet items, canapés, or pre-portioned condiments for functions. A top choice for catering glass storage jars.
