Sana Packaging offers wholesale cannabis topical packaging for creams, salves, ointments, balms, and other compatible semi-solid topical products.

Current topicals packaging options include:

• 1oz glass jars

• 2oz, 3oz, and 4oz high-content recycled glass jars

• 4oz reclaimed ocean-bound plastic jars

• Compatible 38-400 and 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lids

• Customizable Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Paperboard outer packaging and inserts

• Printing and labeling options

These jars have wide openings for filling and product access. Materials, capacities, colors, closures, liners, case or pallet quantities, customization options, and inventory vary by product.

Choose the package based on the topical's formulation, target net weight and volume, density, viscosity, desired headspace, filling temperature, product-contact requirements, closure and liner, retail presentation, customization method, and budget.

Common starting points include:

• Smaller fills or sample sizes: 1oz glass jar paired with a compatible 38-400 child-resistant screw-top lid

• Medium fills: 2oz or 3oz recycled glass jar paired with a compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lid

• Larger fills: 4oz recycled glass jar or 4oz ocean-bound plastic jar paired with a compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lid

• Custom retail presentation: labeled jars, printed lids, customizable tamper bands, or paperboard outer packaging

Container volume and topical net weight are not interchangeable. Product density, viscosity, filling method, and desired headspace can affect the required capacity.

Test the complete package with the actual cream, salve, ointment, or balm under expected filling, storage, transportation, and use conditions before production.

Each material provides a different combination of weight, presentation, recycled content, product visibility, and customization options.

• The 1oz Glass Jar is made from clear Type III soda-lime glass and uses a compatible 38-400 closure.

• The 2oz, 3oz, and 4oz Recycled Glass Jars contain more than 50% recycled glass. They are available in clear glass and use compatible 53-400 closures.

• The 4oz Ocean Jar is a lightweight, rigid package made from 100% reclaimed ocean-bound HDPE. It uses a compatible 53-400 closure.

• Glass provides a rigid, premium presentation and allows the customer to see the product.

• The Ocean Jar provides a lighter alternative when shipping weight, handling, or breakage is a concern.

The best material depends on the topical formulation, filling process, storage conditions, sales market, desired customer experience, and complete packaging system.

No. The topical jars and compatible screw-top lids are sold separately.

• The 1oz Glass Jar uses a compatible 38-400 child-resistant screw-top lid.

• The 2oz, 3oz, and 4oz Recycled Glass Jars use compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lids.

• The 4oz Ocean Jar uses a compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lid.

The 38-400 Ocean Screw-Top Lid uses a pre-inserted Esterfoil liner. The 53-400 Ocean Screw-Top Lid includes a pre-inserted pressure-sensitive liner. Other sealing options may be available for qualifying projects.

Customizable Stone Paper Tamper Bands, tamper-evident labels, specialty seals, paperboard outer packaging, and inserts are also sold separately unless specifically included in a custom quote.

Confirm the complete jar, closure, liner, seal, tamper-evident feature, and secondary packaging configuration before ordering.

Yes. Sana Packaging offers child-resistant topical packaging, but a jar is not child-resistant on its own.

Child-resistant configurations include:

• 1oz glass jars paired with compatible 38-400 child-resistant screw-top lids

• 2oz, 3oz, and 4oz recycled glass jars paired with compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lids

• 4oz ocean-bound plastic jars paired with compatible 53-400 child-resistant screw-top lids

Liners, labels, tamper bands, seals, and paperboard boxes do not provide child resistance on their own.

Confirm the certification, testing standard, complete package configuration, and regulatory requirements applicable to every market where the finished topical will be sold.

Most Sana Packaging primary topical packaging components are food-grade and FDA-compliant, including select glass jars, ocean-bound plastic jars, lids, and liners.

Documentation varies by jar, material, closure, liner, seal, printing method, and complete package configuration. Contact Sana Packaging for current food-contact, child-resistance, and material documentation for the exact components being considered.

Food-grade or FDA-compliant packaging does not establish the safety, stability, efficacy, shelf life, or regulatory compliance of the finished topical. It also does not replace cannabis packaging, cosmetic, drug, labeling, or therapeutic-claim requirements that may apply to the product.

Select jars, closures, liners, and seals may provide airtight, odor-resistant, moisture-resistant, or leak-resistant performance. Sana Packaging does not make a blanket airtight, odor-proof, or leakproof guarantee for every topical and package combination.

Performance depends on:

• The jar, lid, liner, and seal

• Applied closure torque

• Product viscosity and fill level

• Oils, fragrances, terpenes, solvents, and other formula components

• Filling and storage temperatures

• Package orientation during transportation

• Repeated opening and closing

• Product-to-package compatibility

Packaging cannot prevent separation, melting, hardening, oil migration, fragrance loss, discoloration, or other changes caused by the formulation or storage conditions.

Test the complete package with the actual topical before production when leakage, odor retention, shelf life, temperature changes, or material compatibility is critical.

Child resistance and tamper evidence are separate packaging functions.

Cannabis topical packaging is not automatically tamper-evident unless the product listing or custom quote specifically includes that feature. Compatible options may include:

• Perforated Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Tamper-evident labels or stickers

• Liners and sealing options

• Specialty seals

• Sealed paperboard outer packaging

• Other project-specific tamper-evident constructions

Adding a tamper-evident component does not make a non-child-resistant package child-resistant. Confirm both requirements before finalizing the packaging system.

Available packaging and accessory materials include:

• Standard Type III soda-lime glass

• High-content recycled glass containing more than 50% recycled glass

• 100% reclaimed ocean-bound HDPE jars and screw-top lids

• Traditional paperboard, post-consumer waste paperboard, and hemp paperboard

• Stone Paper Tamper Bands made from approximately 80% calcium carbonate and 20% polyethylene

Recycled content, recyclability, biodegradability, and compostability are different attributes.

Glass and pure-resin plastic components are recyclable where local programs accept them. Labels, liners, seals, residual product, component size, and package color can affect recycling acceptance.

Confirm the appropriate disposal method for the complete package in every market where it will be used.

Yes. Available customization options include:

• Traditional labels

• Label printing and application

• Digital printing on eligible screw-top lids

• Custom colors for eligible plastic jars or lids

• Customizable Stone Paper Tamper Bands

• Paperboard boxes and inserts

• Compliance and product-information labeling

Custom colors for eligible plastic components require high-volume production minimums that vary by product. Labels, printed lids, tamper bands, paperboard packaging, and other specialty projects have separate minimum order quantities and production requirements.

Available printing methods, printable areas, artwork requirements, minimum order quantities, lead times, and pricing depend on the selected package and customization method.

A digital proof is provided for approval before custom production begins.

Stock topical packaging is sold by the case, pallet, or roll, depending on the product. Current quantities include:

• 256 units per case for 1oz Glass Jars

• 5,000 units per pallet for 2oz Recycled Glass Jars

• 4,000 units per pallet for 3oz Recycled Glass Jars

• 3,000 units per pallet for 4oz Recycled Glass Jars

• 500 units per case for 4oz Ocean Jars

• 1,500 units per case for 38-400 Ocean Screw-Top Lids

• 1,000 units per case for 53-400 Ocean Screw-Top Lids

• 4,000 Stone Paper Tamper Bands per roll

Jar and lid quantities differ, so plan the required case or pallet ratio when ordering a complete packaging system.

Samples are available for most products. Use samples to test:

• Target net weight, volume, and desired headspace

• Product-contact compatibility

• Filling temperature and process

• Closure torque and liner performance

• Child resistance and tamper evidence

• Leakage, odor, oil, and temperature performance

• Labels, printing, seals, and outer packaging

• Storage and transportation

• The intended customer experience

Blank, in-stock packaging generally ships the next business day. Labels and many other customization projects typically require approximately four weeks after final proof approval, although timing varies by project.

Yes. Sana Packaging can help pair creams, salves, ointments, balms, and other compatible topicals with jars, child-resistant lids, liners, seals, tamper-evident features, labels, printing, inserts, and paperboard outer packaging.

When requesting a recommendation, provide:

• Topical type and formulation

• Target net weight and volume

• Product density and viscosity

• Desired headspace
