Before approving a glass food container for production, check the exact model, capacity, lid and pack you intend to order. A catalogue photo helps you shortlist a product; the approved sample and written brief record what you expect to receive.
1. Match the sample to the model and size
Record the model, shape, nominal capacity and external dimensions. For example, the PB2614 900 ml version is listed at 19 × 14.5 × 7.4 cm. Check that your sample matches that specific size and measure the space it will need on the shelf or in a set.
2. Check how the lid fits and works
Review the lid material, how evenly it sits on the glass rim and how it opens and closes. PB2412 uses a silicone and tempered glass lid; PB2405 uses polypropylene (PP), silicone and tempered glass. On a sample with a vent plug, check where it sits, how it closes and how it interacts with the sealing ring. Record the version you tested.
3. Check the evidence for each use claim
Confirm care and use instructions for the glass body and lid separately. If the packaging will make a leak resistance, temperature or appliance use claim, request the supporting test conditions and check that the documentation covers the selected configuration and destination market. See our product documentation page for what to specify.
4. Confirm the retail pack and shipping carton
Review the pack, protective inserts, artwork, barcode position and what is included in each set. Request units per carton, external carton dimensions and gross carton weight for the exact model, size and packaging combination. If one pack changes, recheck these figures before booking freight.
5. Record the approval and recheck changes
Keep dated photos, the sample revision, packaging artwork and any approved exceptions together. If the glass body, lid, insert or retail pack changes, confirm what needs to be checked again before production.
Request a sample and include the model, capacity, target market and any lid or packaging changes you want to review.
