Jar in details

The broad variety of jar formats allows packaging to be adapted to different product characteristics, usage requirements and market positioning. From compact containers for pharmaceutical and cosmetic products to larger jars for food applications, jars can combine product protection, convenient access and distinctive product presentation. IMA technologies support these different requirements with solutions tailored to the specific product, jar format and closure system. 

Jar for Pharma

In pharmaceutical packaging, jars are used for products such as creams, ointments, gels, semi-solid formulations, powders, granulates, and solid doses. Different jar sizes, shapes and materials can be selected according to the characteristics of the formulation, dosage requirements and intended use. 
Jars can be combined with different closure systems, including screw caps, pressure caps and application-specific closures, depending on the required level of protection and ease of access. For sensitive formulations, the packaging configuration can also be designed to support product integrity throughout its shelf life. 
IMA technologies can accommodate a broad range of jar formats and pharmaceutical formulations, supporting the precise filling and closing requirements associated with different products and production needs.

Jar for Food

In Food packaging, jars are widely used for sauces, dressings, condiments, spreads and other liquid or semi-liquid preparations. Jars can also be used for counted and dosed products, including confectionery such as candies, chewing gums, chocolate dragées, coated sweets, liquorice and nougat. Different jar shapes and sizes can accommodate both loose and wrapped products, including cylindrical, square and irregular formats. 
IMA technologies support both the filling of liquid and semi-liquid products and the counting, dosing and filling of solid products, allowing jar packaging to be adapted to different food, confectionery and supplement applications.
