Lids & Closures (L801 - L906)

Whether you’re sealing family-size food portions, bulk ingredients in a commercial kitchen, or larger containers for industrial use, having the right lid can make all the difference. The (L801–L906) lid series is crafted to fit a variety of large round containers—often one or two gallons—offering secure, leak-resistant closures that keep your products fresh and safe. Below, we’ll explore notable models like L801, L808, L811, L807FL, L904GTS, and other gasketed, tear-strip options, explaining how they meet diverse packaging needs and why bulk ordering can optimize both cost and operations.

Overview of the L801–L906 Lid Series

Lids in this line are often used for 1–2 gallon buckets or pails. Made from BPA-free, food-grade plastics—usually HDPE or PP—they emphasize leak prevention and strong sealing properties. Here’s a quick look at some popular models:

• L808 – BPA-Free Food Grade Round Lids: Known for a single-seal or double-seal design, ideal for everyday commercial or home use where consistent, reliable closure is paramount.
• L801 – BPA-Free Food Grade Round Lid: A straightforward, versatile option offering snap-on convenience. Great for quick-service restaurants or meal-prep businesses needing a fast lid application.
• L811 – BPA-Free Food Grade Round Lids: Typically features a recessed or standard top that locks firmly onto compatible containers—helpful for stacking in warehouse or commercial fridge settings.
• L807FL – Food Line Food Grade Round Lids: Suited for large quantities of foods, boasting a sturdy build that endures frequent handling or high-volume storage.
• L904GTS – BPA-Free Food-Grade Gasketed Tear-Strip Lids: Features a tamper-evident tear strip plus a gasket for enhanced leak resistance and product security—a must for retail or shipping applications.

With these variations, you can choose the exact lid style—recessed, gasketed, tamper-evident, or standard snap-on—that best fits your container’s purpose and your operational needs.

Why Buy Lids in Bulk

Cost Savings & Reduced Overhead

For large-scale kitchens, caterers, or businesses packaging multiple gallons of product, bulk purchasing drastically lowers the price per lid. This approach also cuts down on shipping costs and the administrative hassle of frequent reorders, letting you keep your focus on food quality and efficient service.

Reliable Inventory

Having a consistent stock of lids prevents downtime or production slowdowns—particularly crucial during peak seasons or large order fulfillment. Staff can continuously pack products without pausing to hunt for compatible closures.

Cohesive Branding

Using the same lid style across all product lines or container sizes yields a unified, professional appearance. Bulk orders make it easy to maintain this consistency long-term, reinforcing brand identity.

Key Features of the L801–L906 Series

• Food-Grade, BPA-Free: Safe for direct contact with edible goods, preventing chemical leaching or contamination.
• Tamper-Evident & Gasketed Options: Models like L904GTS feature tear strips or gaskets for extra security and leak prevention.
• Recessed or Standard Tops: Improve stacking efficiency or align with brand-specific packaging aesthetics.
• Long Skirt Designs (e.g., certain lids within this line): Provide enhanced grip and stability, particularly useful for freezer storage or heavy products.

Best Practices for Using These Lids

Confirm Container Compatibility

Ensure you pair lids like L801 or L904GTS with the correct container size. Even a slight mismatch can result in weak seals or minor leaks, undermining quality.

Keep Lids Clean

Store bulk lids in their original boxes or sealed plastic in a sanitary, temperature-controlled area. If handling sensitive foods, a quick wipe or rinse (based on manufacturer guidelines) prior to use adds an extra layer of hygiene.

Press or Pry Properly

For snap-on lids, apply even pressure around the rim to secure a tight seal. Pry-off lids—often tamper-evident—require careful removal of the strip or ring; once it’s broken, the lid will reclose but won’t retain its tamper-proof status.

Label & Rotate Inventory

For commercial kitchens, labeling or color-coding lid styles can reduce confusion and speed up packing. Also, rotate older stock first to maintain consistent product appearance and avoid potential plastic discoloration over time.

FAQs

Q: Are these lids compatible with hot-fill processes or microwave use?

A: Many PP or HDPE lids handle mild heat, but not all are designed for extended microwaving or extremely hot fills. Check each model’s temperature rating for best results.

Q: Can they withstand freezing temperatures?

A: Some lids in this series (especially those labeled “freezer-friendly”) handle cold storage well. Still, it’s wise to confirm any specific temperature limitations to prevent warping or seal failures.

Q: Are they recyclable?

A: Most lids are #2 HDPE or #5 PP, which many recycling programs accept. Local regulations may vary, so check with your municipality for details.
