Jars & Lids

Ball® and Kerr®  Brands of Glass Jars and Closures go beyond fresh preserving to help you with serving, creative décor, and gift-giving.

Our trusted Ball® and Kerr® Brands of Fresh Preserving Lids have been crafted for quality for generations. A quality seal is one of the most important aspects to home canning; it ensures that no oxygen returns into the jar after processing and that your food will remain preserved just the way you created it.

When shopping for fresh preserving products, look for quality from the brands you trust in both Ball® and Kerr® Brands of Lids for Preserving.  Our manufacturing facility in Muncie, Indiana produces each lid with pride.  We use our custom, time-tested sealing compound to help ensure you get quality seal when fresh preserving.  In addition, we use an underside coating on each lid to ensure the natural acids in your food will not react with the lid.

Our Fresh Preserving Jelly, Half-Pint, Pint, and Quart jars are also manufactured right here in the USA as well as our lids.
