Are you ready to explore the potential for boosting your packaging return on investment? If you already know what hot fill packaging is and how hot filling technology works, our specialists are ready to help you take the next step, starting with these four cool reasons to use hot fill with plastic containers.
Hot Fill Plastic Containers for Increased Safety
With the hot fill process working to sterilize the product, 
container, and its components, you can add another element of safety by using a plastic container made from material like PET. Whether you’re filling with salsa, spaghetti sauce, honey, or another product, a shatterproof option is sure to appeal to consumers with family-friendliness in mind.
Increase Your Closure Options
Typically, using a glass jar means using a metal closure. Although metal closures can be the best choice with certain projects, they can also be limited in design and styling. Simply by changing to a hot-fill-compatible plastic, you can increase your closure options in a substantial way.
Hot Fill for Material Cost Savings
By using a plastic container made for the hot fill process, you can realize significant cost savings on your packaging materials. By leveraging the expertise of our packaging specialists, we can help you realize such savings with both the bottle or jar and the closures. As an additional point of emphasis, did we mention that the savings could be up to 30 percent?
Save on Freight Costs
When looking at industry data and crunching the numbers for those who use plastic containers made for the hot fill process, we also looked at freight. Due to the weight difference between glass and plastic containers, we can fit up to 20% more product on a truckload when shipping plastic containers. As one of many ways we are working to save your money, this provides a great reason to take a serious look at plastic containers made for hot fill.
