- Top-Notch Seal: The airtight seal is genuinely impressive for preserving oils and vinegars.
- A Bit Bulky: Its robust build means it takes up more fridge space than slimmer bottles.
Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Rutland Pantry, a small delicatessen in Oakham, wanted to elevate the packaging for their popular homemade salad dressings. Their previous plastic bottles didn't reflect the premium quality of their products and weren't airtight, leading to a shorter shelf life.
"We switched to the Kilner clip top bottles and the difference was immediate. Customers love the look, and we know our dressings are staying fresh. They feel substantial and look fantastic on the shelves. It really reflects the quality we stand for."
Michael Davies – Owner, The Rutland Pantry
Since making the switch, the deli has seen a 30% increase in dressing sales, with many customers returning to refill their reusable glass clip top bottle.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- Before first use, always wash the bottle and rubber seal in warm, soapy water and rinse thoroughly.
- Ensure the rubber seal is properly seated around the glass lid, with no twists or gaps.
- Check the metal clip for smooth operation before filling with your chosen liquid.
- When closing, press the lid down firmly before bringing the metal clasp over to secure it.
Keeping It Going
- The glass bottle is dishwasher safe, but we recommend hand washing the rubber seal to prolong its life.
- To deep clean, the wire clip assembly can be carefully removed and reassembled.
- Avoid using abrasive scourers or harsh chemicals, which can scratch the glass.
- Replace the rubber seal if it becomes stretched, brittle, or cracked to maintain the airtight seal.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the Kilner CZ880 bottle suitable for carbonated drinks?
A: It's not recommended for fermenting or high-pressure carbonation, but it's perfect for serving already carbonated drinks like sparkling water or lemonade.
Q: Can I put hot liquids in this bottle?
A: You should avoid pouring boiling liquids directly into the bottle as the sudden temperature change (thermal shock) could cause it to crack. Allow liquids to cool first.
Q: Is the rubber seal replaceable?
A: Yes, Kilner produces replacement rubber seals, which allows you to maintain a perfect airtight seal for years, making this a very sustainable choice.
Q: How do I sterilise the bottle for preserving?
A: You can sterilise the glass bottle by washing it in hot, soapy water, rinsing, and then placing it in an oven at 160°C for about 15 minutes. The rubber seal should be removed and placed in simmering (not boiling) water for a few minutes.
Q: Is the bottle freezer-safe?
A: No, we do not recommend freezing liquids in this bottle. As the liquid freezes and expands, it can cause the glass to break.
Q: What is sodalime glass?
A: Sodalime glass is the most common type of glass, known for its clarity, strength, and resistance to thermal shock. It's ideal for everyday items like bottles and jars.
Q: What's the best way to clean the metal clip?
A: The metal clip can be wiped down with a damp cloth. If removed for a deep clean, wash it with warm soapy water and dry it immediately and thoroughly to prevent any risk of rust.
Q: Is this suitable for selling my own products in?
A: Absolutely. Its classic look and trusted brand name make it a fantastic choice for giving homemade oils, sauces, and drinks a professional, high-quality finish.
The Kilner Heritage: Over 180 Years of Trusted Quality
When you choose a Kilner bottle, you're not just buying a piece of glassware; you're investing in a legacy. For over 180 years, the Kilner name has been synonymous with preserving, quality, and quintessentially British design. This heritage brings an immediate sense of trust and authenticity that resonates with customers. In a busy commercial environment, that reliability is invaluable. These bottles are designed to be used day in, day out, without the seal failing or the glass chipping easily. The long-term value lies in its reusability; this isn't a disposable item but a permanent fixture in your kitchen's toolkit. By choosing a durable, reusable glass clip top bottle, you're also making a smarter, more sustainable choice, reducing waste and demonstrating a commitment to quality that goes far beyond what's inside the bottle.
Explore more from KilnerHow Kilner’s Airtight Seal Locks in Freshness
Ever wondered what makes that 'pop' sound when you open a clip top bottle so satisfying? It’s the sound of a perfect seal at work. The Kilner system uses three key parts: a durable rubber ring, the glass lid, and a metal lever. When you clamp the lever down, it creates immense pressure on the rubber ring, forcing it against the rim of the bottle. This action pushes all the air out and creates a vacuum-like seal.
Think of it like a miniature submarine hatch for your liquids. The lever securely bolts the 'door' (the lid) shut, and the rubber gasket ensures not a single bit of air can get in or out. This is why it’s the gold standard for preserving things like cordials or oils, as it stops oxygen from spoiling the contents, keeping them fresh for weeks or even months longer than a standard screw cap.
