Best Practices for Honey Storage

Container Selection

  • Material: Always use food-grade HDPE or PET plastics
  • Seal: Choose airtight lids to prevent moisture absorption
  • Size: Match container size to your harvest and sales volume
  • Color: Clear containers showcase honey quality; opaque protects from UV

Storage Conditions

  • Temperature: Store between 50-70°F to prevent crystallization
  • Humidity: Keep below 60% to prevent fermentation
  • Light: Store in dark areas to preserve color and enzymes
  • Stacking: Use sturdy buckets that support weight when stacked

Why Proper Storage Matters

Honey is hygroscopic—it naturally absorbs moisture from the air. Using proper food-grade containers with airtight seals:

  • Maintains honey's low moisture content
  • Prevents fermentation and spoilage
  • Preserves natural enzymes and nutritional properties
  • Keeps honey market-ready for extended periods

Understanding Food-Safe Materials for Honey

PET #1 (Bottles)

  • Crystal-clear for honey visibility
  • Lightweight yet durable
  • Excellent moisture barrier
  • Safe for room temperature storage
  • Widely recyclable

PP #5 (Lids & Accessories)

  • High heat resistance
  • Flexible for easy application
  • Chemical resistant
  • Reusable and recyclable

All our honey storage containers are 100% BPA-free and meet FDA standards for direct food contact.

Frequently Asked Questions About Beekeeping Supplies

What makes a container "honey-safe"?

Honey-safe containers are made from FDA-approved, food-grade plastics (HDPE #2, PET #1, or PP #5) that won't interact with honey's natural acids or enzymes. They're BPA-free and designed to maintain honey's purity.

Can I store crystallized honey in these containers?

Yes! Our buckets can handle temperatures up to 160°F, making them perfect for storing crystallized honey or gently warming honey to re-liquefy it. The Gamma seal lids make it easy to access crystallized honey.

What's the best container size for hobbyist beekeepers?

For hobbyists, we recommend starting with 1-3.5 gallon buckets for smaller harvests and a variety of bottle sizes (12-32 oz) for sharing and selling. No minimums mean you can order exactly what you need.

How long can honey be stored in these containers?

When properly sealed with our airtight lids, honey can be stored indefinitely. Our containers maintain the low moisture environment honey needs to prevent fermentation.

Do you offer custom labels for small apiaries?

Yes! We have the lowest minimums in the industry—starting at just 60 units for pressure-sensitive labels. Plus, our free design service helps create professional branding for your honey.

Are the bear bottles good for farmers markets?

Absolutely! Bear bottles are customer favorites at farmers markets. They're nostalgic, easy to squeeze, and the clear PET plastic beautifully showcases your honey's color and clarity.
