5Lt Rectangle PET Bottle - (Pack of 16 units)
The PackNet 5 Litre Rectangle PET Bottle is the catering and bulk beverage format for SA juice producers, water brands, and food service operations. Crystal-clear PET at 5L gives the product visibility of a premium retail display, while the rectangular profile maximises shelf and storage efficiency. At 5 litres, this bottle serves the gap between single-serve retail and commercial drum packaging.
The Catering and Food Service Standard
Schools, restaurants, event caterers, and corporate canteens all need beverages in volumes larger than a single serving but smaller than a commercial drum. The 5L PET rectangle bottle fills that gap precisely. It is light enough for a single person to lift and pour from comfortably (a full 5L weighs approximately 5kg), and the rectangular profile means cartons of these bottles stack cleanly in delivery vehicles and cold rooms without wasted space.

FAQ
Q: Is the 5L PET bottle suitable for juice with pulp?
A: Yes. The 38mm neck on the 5L rectangle PET bottle is wide enough to accommodate juice with fine pulp. For juices with large pulp pieces, a wide-mouth format is recommended.
Q: How does PET compare to HDPE for a 5L beverage bottle?
A: PET offers crystal clarity - important for premium juice and beverage presentation. HDPE is opaque or translucent and better suited to chemical and industrial applications. For food and beverage, PET is the standard choice for product visibility.
Q: What is the pack size?
A: The 5L rectangle PET bottle is supplied in a box of 16 units. Contact PackNet for bulk pricing on larger quantities.
