Plastic Beverage Containers

Plastic offers a number of advantages over glass. Five main benefits of plastic include: (1) Plastic is naturally light in weight, leading to reduced shipping costs. (2) Plastic has a higher shatter-resistant than glass, resulting in less wear and tear during shipping and storing. (3) There are environmentally-friendly options, such as PCR products. (4) Some plastic containers are compatible with in-mold labeling (IML), a direct label application process. (5) Plastic containers are versatile, making them a popular solution across various industries.

At The Cary Company, our plastic beverage containers are made from HDPE, PET, and PP materials. These plastics are three of the most commonly used plastics in the food and beverage industry, and are all FDA Compliant for storing consumable products. 

HDPE is best known for its strength and high impact resistance. It is commonly used for milk jugs and juice bottles. HDPE does not leach harmful substances, making it an excellent choice for packaging consumables.

PET has a high strength to density ratio, meaning it is a light yet durable plastic. It also has excellent barrier properties, keeping oxygen out of beverages. This characteristic makes PET ideal for packaging soft drinks and water.

PP has a high melting point and can withstand temperatures up to 165° F. This makes PP great for products that need to be hot filled.

Our plastic beverage containers are compatible with a variety of caps and closures. We offer tamper evident beverage caps including ratchet caps, drop lock caps, and DBJ caps. These closures are designed to reveal whether a product has been tampered with, offering customers peace of mind regarding the safety of their product. For a basic closure, we offer continuous thread caps that can be easily sealed and resealed. These closures are available lined or unlined.

Customizing plastic drink containers with your personal branding or labels is an excellent way to promote your products. Cary Design is a great resource for professional label solutions and offers design, printing, and labeling services. Labels can be applied along the beverage container’s sides or atop their lids.
