  • Pro: The flat sides are fantastic for applying labels neatly and  professionally.
  • Con: The metal lids can be prone to denting if handled roughly.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Norfolk Larder," a bustling deli in Norwich, needed a more premium and  reliable way to package their signature line of homemade chutneys and  piccalilli. Their old jars were generic and  didn't reflect the quality of the product inside.

"We made the switch to this Kilner 110ml preserving jar and  the difference was immediate. They look fantastic on the shelf, and  customers trust the Kilner name. Our chutneys now look as good as they taste, and  they feel much more substantial."

Ben Carter – Proprietor

The improved presentation boosted customer confidence, contributing to a 20% increase in sales of their own-brand preserves within the first quarter.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before the first use, always wash jars and  lids in warm, soapy water and  rinse thoroughly.
  • Ensure the jar is completely dry before filling, especially with dry goods like herbs or spices.
  • When preserving, don't over-tighten the lid before processing; tighten fully once cooled.

Keeping It Going

  • The glass jar is perfectly safe to pop in a commercial dishwasher for easy cleaning.
  • To keep the lids looking their best, we recommend washing them by hand and  drying them promptly.
  • Regularly check the rubberised seal inside the lid to ensure it's intact for an airtight fit.
  • Store empty jars and  lids in a dry cupboard to keep them ready for action.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Storage Jars

Not sure what fits best for your business? Here are a few pointers to help you pick the perfect jar.

Consider Capacity

Think about what you're storing. This small glass twist top jar is brilliant for individual portions, high-value spices, or samples, but you might need something bigger for bulk items.

Lid Type Matters

A twist-top lid provides a great commercial seal for freshness. If you're doing serious canning or preserving, ensure the lid is suitable for heat processing.

Shape & Storage

Don't underestimate shape! Hexagonal or square jars like this one pack together much more efficiently on a shelf than round jars, saving you valuable space.

Presentation is Key

If your jars will be seen by customers, on a table or retail shelf, choose a style like this Kilner GL871 glass storage jar that enhances your brand's image.

Material & Reusability

Glass is fantastic because it doesn't stain or hold onto odours. This makes it perfect for reusing with everything from pickled onions to coffee beans.

More Than Just Good Looks: The Stability of a Hexagonal Design

Ever had a round jar roll off a crowded prep shelf? It’s a small annoyance that can lead to a big mess. The six-sided design of this 110ml hexagonal glass jar provides what we call 'passive stability'. Think of it like a honeycomb in a beehive – each jar nestles neatly and  securely against the next, creating a solid, stable block. This simple bit of geometry means they won't roll around on shelves or in transit, reducing the risk of breakages and  creating a much more organised, space-efficient storage system in your pantry or on a retail display.

Who Should Buy This?

  • Cafés & Tea Rooms: Perfect for serving individual portions of jam, honey, or marmalade with scones and  toast.
  • Delis & Farm Shops: An ideal and  attractive hexagonal spice storage container for your own range of herbs, spices, or mustards.
  • Restaurants & Pubs: A stylish way to present table sauces, relishes, or other condiments to your diners.
  • Hotels & B&Bs: Excellent for offering guests homemade preserves at breakfast or as a welcome gift in their room.
