Packaging Tip

Boston round is one of the most popular shapes when it comes to bottles. SKS carries boston round style bottles in both glass and PET plastic, and a variety of colors for your packaging needs. Boston rounds, sometimes also known as Winchester Quart bottles, originated in the UK during the 19th century. Historically, the most popular style of boston round was composed of amber glass to filter out UV rays and protect products in the pharmaceutical and chemical industries. The boston round construction is characterized by a cylindrical shape, including curved, sloping shoulders and a narrow neck. The neck is threaded for use with a variety of screw caps, from fine mist sprayers to droppers. The boston round bottle is great for packaging products like aromatherapy blends, body care products, beverages, nutritional supplements, and more.
