500ml Snap Tub & Lid - (Box of 100 units)
The PackNet 500ml Snap Tub is the go-to rigid food container for SA food producers selling achaar, pickles, dips, and condiments at retail. Manufactured from food-safe polypropylene with a snap-on lid that closes with a clean, audible confirmation, this tub is stackable, tamper-resistant, and instantly recognisable to South African food buyers.
The SA Food Market Standard
Walk into any South African supermarket or spaza shop and you will find the 500ml snap tub. It is the container format that food buyers associate with achaar, curry paste, mayonnaise, peanut butter, and deli salads. Using a format that buyers already recognise builds trust at shelf level before they have even read the label. The clear PP body gives full product visibility - essential for any product where colour and texture are part of the buying decision.

What SA Producers Use This Tub For
The 500ml snap tub is used for achaar and pickles, mayonnaise and aioli, peanut butter and nut spreads, deli potato salad and coleslaw, curry pastes, hummus, and soft cheese. The snap-on lid creates a reliable resealable closure for products that consumers open multiple times before finishing. For single-use or takeaway applications - restaurant portions, meal kit components - the tub seals cleanly and stacks efficiently for service prep.

FAQÂ
Q: Is the 500ml snap tub food-safe?
A: Yes. The snap tub is manufactured from food-grade polypropylene (PP), BPA-free, and approved for direct contact with food including wet, oily, and acidic products like achaar, pickles, and mayonnaise.
Q: Does the snap lid create a watertight seal?
A: The snap-on lid provides a secure, resealable closure suitable for thick and semi-liquid foods. For products requiring a fully liquid-tight seal under pressure, a screw-top container is recommended.
Q: Can the 500ml snap tub be microwaved?
A: Polypropylene is generally microwave-safe, but confirm with PackNet for your specific application. Always remove the snap lid before microwaving.
