Small jars are ideal for samples, tasting sets, hotel breakfast buffets and individual gifts. Traditional ½ lb and 1lb jars are a familiar choice for beekeepers and honey producers, while larger jars suit customers seeking family-sized products or larger quantities.

Product pages provide detailed information on capacity, pack quantity, and available lids, helping you choose the most suitable option before ordering.
Glass provides an inert, food-safe environment that helps preserve the purity and integrity of honey. Its non-porous surface does not absorb odours or flavours, making glass jars easy to clean and reuse when handled correctly.
Clear glass is also useful for showcasing the honey’s natural colour and texture. Whether the contents are pale, dark, clear or crystallised, customers can see the product before opening the jar. This gives the finished packaging a premium feel that suits farm shops, market stalls, independent retailers and gift collections.
Glass is 100% recyclable and can be recycled repeatedly without losing its quality. It is also resistant to everyday wear, although every jar should still be handled carefully to avoid scratches, chips or breakages.
While these jars are selected with honey in mind, many designs are also suitable for filling with jams, pickles, sauces and other preserves. Always check the relevant product details to confirm that the jar and closure are suitable for your intended contents and filling process.
Miniature honey jars are a popular option when a full-sized jar is not required. They can be filled for wedding favours, corporate gifts, tasting packs, hamper sets and hotel breakfast service.
Their compact size makes them easy to present individually or as part of a larger gift. Adding your own label, ribbon or tag can turn a simple jar of honey into a personal favour or branded product.
Freeman & Harding offers both 1oz and 1.5oz mini jars in quantities suited to small projects and larger production runs. You can browse more mini glass jar options if you need to compare shapes, sizes and pack quantities.
The lid is an important part of the finished jar. A compatible closure helps protect the contents, supports safe handling and gives the packaging a clean, finished appearance.
Selected honey jars are available with a choice of twist-off or screw lids. Lid colours and specifications vary between products, so check the options shown on the individual product page before making your selection.
If you already have jars and only need closures, Freeman & Harding also supplies spare lids for glass jars, including metal twist-off and screw-lid options. The lid must match the jar’s neck size and closure type, rather than being selected by jar capacity alone.
Different customers need different quantities. A hobbyist beekeeper may only need a few cases, while an established producer could require hundreds or thousands of jars at a time.
Freeman & Harding offers smaller packs for everyday use alongside large-volume options for commercial filling and regular production. Purchasing in bulk may provide better value for money and reduce the time spent placing repeat orders.
If you are testing a new size or design, consider using the jar sample service before committing to a larger order. Wholesale customers can also view the bulk jar range or contact Freeman & Harding for support with stock, product compatibility and larger orders.

A clean, food-safe glass jar with a correctly fitting lid is an ideal choice. The best size and closure will depend on your filling process, portion size and how the honey will be presented.
Glass is non-porous, food-safe and easy to clean. It does not absorb smells or flavours and allows customers to see the honey’s natural appearance.
Mini jars are commonly used for samples, hotel breakfasts, wedding favours, gifts, hampers and tasting collections. They are also useful when customers want to try a smaller portion.
Honey can keep for a long time when stored correctly. Keep the jar tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and avoid introducing water or other contaminants.
