16 oz Plastic Classic Honey Jars
16 oz Plastic Classic Honey Jars
If you're selling honey at retail, this is almost certainly the jar you want. The 16 oz classic is our best-selling plastic honey jar by a wide margin — it holds exactly 1 lb of honey, which is the standard size customers expect to see on a market table. Same silhouette as our glass classic jars, just lighter and shatter-resistant.
Lids are sold separately. The jar uses a 38-400 continuous thread opening — both 38mm flip-top caps and 38mm dripless inverted lids fit this jar. Lids with a pressure-sensitive safety seal press onto the bottle automatically when screwed down.
Key Features
- BPA-free, food-safe PET plastic — squeezable, shatter-resistant, and recyclable
- Super clear — honey color shows well at market or on the shelf
- Tapered edges and oval shape — the classic honey jar profile
- 38-400 continuous thread — fits a wide range of 38mm lids
- Pressure-sensitive safety seal activates automatically when lid is screwed on
- Available by the box, case of 321, or full pallet
A Note on Sizing
This jar holds approximately 16 oz by weight (454 grams) — about 1 1/3 cups of honey. The actual liquid volume is closer to 10.67 fluid ounces. Honey jars are sized by weight, not volume — the label says 16 oz because that's how much honey fits, not how much water would.
Not Sure How Many Jars You Need?
We built a free honey jar calculator that figures it out for you. Enter how much honey you have, pick your jar sizes, and it gives you a shopping list. It handles multiple jar sizes at once — useful if you're splitting a harvest between different bottle formats.
