What is Rigid Packaging?

Rigid packaging retains its shape under normal handling and includes bottles, jars, cans, tubs, trays, and rigid containers. Materials commonly include plastic, glass, metal, and paperboard. Rigid packaging provides structural protection and can support stacking and product presentation. It is widely used in food, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, and household products. Material selection depends on strength, barrier, product compatibility, and cost considerations.
