The injection-moulded 3.6-L PET jar, made by RPC Containers Blackburn in a custom mould, is the same height as a 4-L version, meaning it carries the same on-shelf presence. Tangerine, the UK’s leading sugar confectionery manufacturer, has switched its Taveners traditional sweet shop range and Jameson’s high-quality chocolate-covered confectionery to the new, classic-style container, which has been specifically developed for Tangerine’s cash and carry customers. Its glass-clear appearance highlights the colourful, high-quality product within, and the wide neck for easy dispensing uses a 105-mm black cap supplied by RPC Halstead.
