Glass Jar Merchandising with Elastic String Tags

Glass jars—they’re so classic, so simple, so timeless, and so great for merchandising. Many product merchandisers are turning to glass jars for everything from luxury toiletries to bake-in-the-jar cakes to even unconventional ideas like accessory packaging (scarves, gloves, jewelry and even socks) to moonshine! Here are a few reasons products packaged in glass jars with elastic string tags are a great option:

  1. They convey the feeling of “handcrafted” and “homemade” that consumers increasingly crave. Remember those long summer days canning preserves at grandma’s house? Consumers are turning away from anything that says “I’ve been mass-produced” to things that say, “I was crafted with care.” So even if your product is produce on a large scale, glass jars paired with elastic string merchandising tags let customers know that your product is made with love.
  2. Glass jars are earth friendly packaging at its best, and for a lot of reasons. They don’t exude all the chemicals that plastic does, with all of the potential health concerns they may have. This makes glass an excellent choice for food and beverage packaging. Glass jars are recyclable pretty much everywhere, so they don’t end up in landfills. What’s more, there are a lot of consumers who like to wash out and keep glass jars once your product has been consumed and re-purpose them for other things. Glass jar merchandising is a win-win no matter how you look at it.
  3. Glass jars are flexible packaging options. And by flexible, we mean that you can use them for just about anything. All kinds of gourmet food and drink items, all sorts of luxury bath items from sugar scrubs to oils, from powders to candles etc. They all go great in glass jars with elastic string tag labels.
