Lids & Closures (L700 - L711)

When it comes to packaging bigger batches of food or industrial products, having the right lid is crucial for preserving freshness, maintaining safety, and simplifying handling. The (L700–L711) lid series features a wide range of food-grade, BPA-free lids—some tamper-evident, some freezer-friendly, others featuring a pry-off design—to fit larger round containers and pails. Below, we’ll break down notable models (like L704PR, L700R, L709SPLCP, L70Z, and L70SPRTS), discuss how they’re typically used, and explain why buying them in bulk offers significant advantages for both small and large-scale operations.

Overview of the L700–L711 Lid Series

Each lid in this lineup is designed to fit compatible round containers—commonly 1-gallon pails or containers. Constructed from durable, FDA-approved plastics (often HDPE or PP), these lids emphasize leak prevention, user-friendly features, and tamper-evident options. Here are a few standouts:

• L704PR – BPA-Free Food-Grade Round Pry-Off Lid: Offers a pry-off design—ideal for creating a tight seal and ensuring tamper evidence. Popular in both commercial kitchens and retail packaging.
• L700R – Food Grade Round Recessed Lids: Features a recessed top that aids in stacking, making it easier to store and transport multiple containers without slipping.
• L709SPLCP – SuperLift Plastic Lid: Known for its robust construction and secure closure, often paired with tall pails or heavy-duty containers that require reliable, leak-resistant performance.
• L70Z – 1 Gallon Pry-Off Lid: Designed specifically for 1-gallon pails, featuring a pry-off mechanism that can be tamper-evident or vacuum-sealed.
• L70SPRTS – Food Grade Pry-Off Round Lids with Tear Strip: Includes a tear-away tab for quick opening and tamper evidence, ideal for retail or shipping scenarios requiring extra security.

By mixing and matching lids within the L700–L711 family, you can accommodate a broad array of packaging needs—from easy snap-on closures to tamper-evident pry-offs that provide added peace of mind.

Why Buy Lids in Bulk

Cost Savings

Purchasing lids in bulk significantly lowers your per-unit expense. This is crucial for high-volume producers—like caterers, meal kit services, or retail brands—aiming to keep overhead manageable while offering competitive pricing to customers.

Reliable Inventory

Maintaining a uniform stock of lids ensures you won’t run out mid-service or mid-production. Employees can package goods swiftly, avoiding downtime or the need for emergency reorders, especially during busy periods or large orders.

Unified Branding

Using the same style of lid across all your containers yields a polished, professional look. Bulk purchases mean you can stock enough of one design, so you don’t have to switch lids for different product lines—maintaining brand consistency.

Key Features of the L700–L711 Series

• Food-Grade, BPA-Free: Safe for storing both edible and inedible products, without chemical leaching or contamination.
• Varied Closure Types: From pry-off (tamper-evident) to standard snap-on designs, ensuring you can match the lid to your product’s needs.
• Recessed or Long Skirt Options: Helps with stable stacking or improved freeze/thaw cycles, especially if your operation involves cold storage.
• Leak & Tamper Resistance: Enhanced features—like tear strips or vacuum seals—provide assurance against spills and unauthorized access.

Best Practices for Using Lids

Match Lid & Container Properly

Make sure your container’s diameter and rim finish aligns with the chosen lid, such as L704PR or L70Z. A perfect match is critical for maintaining an airtight seal—especially with liquids or high-value products.

Confirm Temperature Tolerance

If you’ll fill containers with hot soups or freeze them, verify each lid’s heat and cold range. Some lids handle moderate heat well, while others are primarily intended for cold or room-temperature storage.

Keep Lids Clean & Organized

Store unopened cases in a dry, cool area. Ensure staff can quickly find the correct lid style or size during rushes by maintaining orderly shelves or labeled bins.

Use Proper Sealing Technique

For pry-off or tamper-evident lids, check the ring or tab after closing to confirm it’s intact. If it’s a snap-on type, press around the perimeter evenly to avoid partial closures or leaks.

FAQs

Q: Are these lids microwave-safe or freezer-friendly?

A: Many BPA-free, PP-based lids can withstand mild heating or freezing, but it’s best to check each product’s specs. For certain items requiring a wide temperature range, look specifically for lids labeled freezer-safe or heat-tolerant.

Q: Do pry-off lids have a reusable seal after opening?

A: Typically, pry-off lids with a tamper-evident band may not reseal as securely once the tab is broken. Some can still snap back on, but the tamper-proof guarantee is lost.

Q: Are they recyclable?

A: Most lids in this series use #2 HDPE or #5 PP, often recyclable in curbside or drop-off programs. Check local guidelines to confirm acceptance.
