Glass products manufacturer Ardagh Group has created a new 16oz glass jar for the US-based Jarden Home Brands. The jar retains the taste and freshness of products stored such as jams, pickles and chutneys.
The new limited edition jar has been developed to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Ball brothers 'Perfect Mason' jar.
Ardagh collaborated with Jarden Home Brands, which licenses the Ball Home Canning brand, to develop a new color and different design features for the jar.
The light blue color for the container was devised through a partnership with Ferro Glass Systems, Ardagh's supplier, and a color technology specialist.
Ardagh's design team incorporated custom-embossed logos - a 'Vintage Ball' logo on the front of the jar, and logo of '100 Year Anniversary' on the back.
According to Ardagh Group, consumers trust the time-honored and traditional benefits of glass to preserve taste and freshness.
