Pretium does not currently sell bottles online, although we do offer small quantities of free sample bottles using our online Product Catalog.
Pretium manufactures plastic bottles and jars, as well as a select portfolio of caps or closures. For pumps and sprayers we would encourage you to review our list of stocking distributors most of these distributors carry a wide variety of closures and components. When speaking with a distributor, tell them the neck finish information (available for every item Pretium sells) and they can find closures that fit Pretium’s SPI finishes.
Pretium offers over 2,000 bottles and jars that we define as “stock” bottles. This means they are available to sell to anyone (as opposed to “custom” bottles which are paid for and owned by a specific customer). All of our stock bottles are listed in our Stock Product Catalogs and can be viewed in our online Product Catalog. Not all of our stock products are in stock at all times; to see what items we have in stock for immediate shipment, please visit our stocking program pages.
Minimum Order Requirements vary by bottle style, manufacturing process and other factors. For our HDPE Pharma Line and many of our core single-stage PET products (such PET packers, narrow-neck rounds, wide mouth jars), the MOQ is just $500 when we have those items in stock, or is often as low as one pallet if we have to schedule a run for you. Please visit our stocking program pages for up-to-date information about what’s in stock now.
As a general rule of thumb of our extrusion blow molded HDPE bottles have a 25,000-piece MOQ; our injection blow molded bottles have a 50,000-piece MOQ; our clear 38mm 2-stage PET bottles have a 25,000-piece MOQ; and other 2-stage bottles typically have a 50,000-piece MOQ. Special reins, including post-consumer resins and bioresins, usually have an 50,000-piece MOQ unless the items are already in stock. Some bottles are only sold in full pallets. Please speak with your Pretium Key Account Manager or customer service representative for the MOQ associated with the items you intend to order.
Yes! Pretium has one of North America’s finest container decoration facilities in our Technigraph decorating facility in Winona, Minnesota. We offer screen printing, shrink sleeving, spray frosting, pressure sensitive labeling and more for your bottles, jars, closures and components.
Lead times vary widely by item type, quantity requested, blow molding platform, plant location, and other seasonal or situational factors. While we can provide estimated lead times at the time of your specific inquiry, lead times can only be confirmed after your purchase order is confirmed.
Pretium has in-house design and engineering capabilities, and we can also build much of our tooling in-house. Our Design Center and Innovation Lab help us expedite your project from a concept to a manufacturable bottle or jar. Learn more.
Special resins such as post-consumer resins, bioresins, biodegradable additives, anti-stat resins and other non-standard resins typically require a 50,000 piece minimum and may also require a set-up fee or purge charge depending on the manufacturing process and bottle size.
Because we have the same machine platforms at many of our plants and routinely move molds to satisfy customer demand, we do not currently publish a list of locations for each blow mold, but your Pretium Key Account Manager can give you information for the bottle or jar you are interested in.
At this time, there is not FDA approval for post-consumer resins (PCR). In lieu of approval, the FDA issues an FDA Letter of Non-Objection which certifies that the collection, cleaning, and processing of the post-consumer materials meets their standards for food-safe plastics.
