Berry Global Group, Inc., partnered with Grillo?s Pickles to deliver spill-proof, easy-open jars for its garden-fresh pickles. The custom, nestable, widely recyclable polypropylene (PP) jar and continuous thread closure provides a simple, mess-free opening process. The custom jars were designed for compatibility with Berry?s line of ribbed closures to help prevent leakage during opening and closing.

The jars also include pickle-shaped side grips for enhanced user control and clear, in-mold labels to maintain Grillo?s home-made aesthetic. This helps simplify the filling line process by eliminating the need for label application Similar to the previous containers produced by Berry, these 32-ounce, twist-top jars improve the recyclability of traditional pickle jars typically made of glass. The jars are also nestable, minimizing wasted space during transportation and storage and helping optimize supply chain efficiency.

The jars were designed for Grillo?s in collaboration with Blue Clover Studios, Berry?s internal design studio, following an art-to-part ideation workshop at Berry?s headquarters in Evansville, Indiana. And the jars and closures are produced at Berry?s plants in Streetsboro, Ohio and Evansville, Indiana.
