Graham Packaging Supplies Hartley's Squeezy Jam Jar

The pack has a standard bottle with a 38/400mm neck finish and is multi-layered to increase the shelf life of the product by ruling out oxygen ingress.

20/09/08 Graham Packaging has supplied Hartley's, the Premier Foods jam brand, a custom designed polypropylene container for its new range of 'squeezy' jams.

The pack has a standard bottle with a 38/400mm neck finish and is multi-layered to increase the shelf life of the product by ruling out oxygen ingress.

The jar has been produced using Graham Packaging's proprietary barrier technology, it delivers a high level of reliability in terms of barrier specification and its speed in operation ensures economics for this high value pack are kept at a low level.

Seaquist dispensing closures in differing sizes have been added to accommodate for the 'Smooth' and 'Best' variants of jam.

David Atkinson, general manager of spreads at Premier Foods, says: "We hope this exciting new design for Hartley's will expand our appeal in the market to adults and children alike.

"Eating patterns have changed dramatically and we are pleased that Britain's favourite jam is able to cater for this demand through pack innovation."

The squeezy range is available in several varieties: Strawberry and Raspberry Best, and Strawberry and Blackcurrant Smooth.
