# Jars packaging EPR Ireland: what a glass jar costs per 1,000 packs, 2026

Last verified: November 4, 2026 · https://instica.com/epr/jar/ireland

<a id="answer"></a>

In Ireland, 1,000 glass jars of the Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) size (201 g) carry an estimated packaging fee of €3.77 to €4.30 on the 2026 schedule. The range comes from the published rates that fit each part of the pack. Instica estimates it; you confirm the weights, then sign and submit.

<a id="what"></a>

## What this page estimates for a glass jar in Ireland

The glass jar on this page is a jar closed by a metal lid with a plastic seal, with a paper label stuck on the glass. It has 3 components, each matched to the published rates of the 2026 schedule of Repak Regular and Scheduled Members fees for Ireland; weight times rate gives a fee per 1,000 packs in EUR. The figures are estimates built on starting weights.

<a id="anatomy"></a>

## What is in a glass jar

The jar has three components: the glass body, the metal lid and the paper label. Each is matched to its own published rate.

Starting weights, an Instica estimate for a typical pack and not a measured weight: jar (glass, 190 g), lid (steel, 9 g), and label (paper, 2 g).

- **Jar**: glass, 190 g (Instica starting estimate)
- **Lid**: steel, 9 g (Instica starting estimate)
- **Label**: paper, 2 g (Instica starting estimate)

<a id="worked-example"></a>

## Worked example: 1,000 glass jars in Ireland

One glass jar of the Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) size weighs 201 g in total. For each component the table gives its weight, the matched published rates, and the fee for 1,000 packs.

<a id="worked-example-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 glass jars in Ireland, in EUR**

| Component | Weight each | Matched published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | ---: | --- | ---: | ---: |
| Jar | 190 g | Recycled glass | €3.64 | €0.0036 |
| Lid | 9 g | Recycled aluminium (non-DRS) to Recycled steel (non-DRS) | €0.05 to €0.58 | €0.0000 to €0.0006 |
| Label | 2 g | Recycled paper / cardboard | €0.08 | €0.0001 |

<a id="calc-total"></a>Ireland: 1,000 glass jars of the Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) size are estimated at €3.77 to €4.30 in packaging fees.

Added together, the estimate for 1,000 packs is €3.77 to €4.30.

Divide by 1,000 for a single pack: about €0.0038 to €0.0043.

## Which published rates were matched in Ireland

4 published rates were matched to the pack in Ireland from the 2026 schedule. Each is quoted from the programme’s own fee table; the page does not change the rate or round it.

<a id="sizes"></a>

## How size changes the fee for a glass jar

The weight of a glass jar depends on its size. The table prices each of the 4 sizes with the same matched rates, so the only thing that changes between rows is the weight.

<a id="sizes-table"></a>**Fee for 1,000 glass jars by size in Ireland, in EUR**

| Size | Weight each | Fee per 1,000 packs, lowest rates | Fee per 1,000 packs, highest rates | Per pack, lowest | Per pack, highest |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Small (about 4 oz) | 118 g | €2.18 | €2.60 | €0.0022 | €0.0026 |
| Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) | 201 g | €3.77 | €4.30 | €0.0038 | €0.0043 |
| Large (about 12 oz) | 252 g | €4.73 | €5.32 | €0.0047 | €0.0053 |
| Extra large (about 16 oz) | 315 g | €5.93 | €6.64 | €0.0059 | €0.0066 |

Each component of the glass jar priced at every size, at the matched rates for Ireland.

<a id="matrix"></a>**Fee per 1,000 packs by component and size, Ireland, in EUR**

| Component | Small (about 4 oz) | Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) | Large (about 12 oz) | Extra large (about 16 oz) |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Jar | 110 g: €2.11 | 190 g: €3.64 | 240 g: €4.59 | 300 g: €5.74 |
| Lid | 7 g: €0.04 to €0.45 | 9 g: €0.05 to €0.58 | 10 g: €0.05 to €0.65 | 12 g: €0.06 to €0.78 |
| Label | 1 g: €0.04 | 2 g: €0.08 | 2 g: €0.08 | 3 g: €0.12 |

<a id="options"></a>

## What if the glass jar used another material?

Suppose the main component of the glass jar, weighing 190 g, were made of another material. The table prices the same weight in each material class that Ireland publishes a rate for, at the lowest published rate in that class.

<a id="options-table"></a>**Same weight, different material, Ireland, in EUR per 1,000 packs**

| Material | Lowest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate | Highest published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs at that rate |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | 41.60 EUR/tonne | €7.90 | 41.60 EUR/tonne | €7.90 |
| plastic | 165.70 EUR/tonne | €31.48 | 165.70 EUR/tonne | €31.48 |
| glass | 19.14 EUR/tonne | €3.64 | 19.14 EUR/tonne | €3.64 |
| aluminium | 5.14 EUR/tonne | €0.98 | 5.14 EUR/tonne | €0.98 |
| steel | 64.76 EUR/tonne | €12.30 | 64.76 EUR/tonne | €12.30 |

<a id="options-all"></a>**Every matched rate of the other materials at 190 g, Ireland, in EUR**

| Material | Category | Published rate | Fee per 1,000 packs | Fee per pack |
| --- | --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| paper and board | Recycled paper / cardboard | 41.60 EUR/tonne | €7.90 | €0.0079 |
| plastic | Recycled flexible plastic | 165.70 EUR/tonne | €31.48 | €0.0315 |
| aluminium | Recycled aluminium (non-DRS) | 5.14 EUR/tonne | €0.98 | €0.001 |
| steel | Recycled steel (non-DRS) | 64.76 EUR/tonne | €12.30 | €0.0123 |

A fee comparison only: another material changes weight and protection too.

<a id="volume"></a>

## What a larger run of glass jars costs in Ireland

Fees scale with the number of packs, because the schedule charges by mass. The table repeats the worked example for larger runs of the Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) glass jar in Ireland. Nothing else changes between rows: the same weights and the same matched rates apply.

<a id="volume-table"></a>**Fee by run size for the glass jar in Ireland, in EUR**

| Packs | Total weight | Fee at the lowest rates | Fee at the highest rates |
| ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| 100 | 20.1 kg | €0.38 | €0.43 |
| 500 | 100.5 kg | €1.88 | €2.15 |
| 1,000 | 201 kg | €3.77 | €4.30 |
| 5,000 | 1,005 kg | €18.83 | €21.51 |
| 10,000 | 2,010 kg | €37.66 | €43.03 |
| 50,000 | 10,050 kg | €188.30 | €215.13 |
| 100,000 | 20,100 kg | €376.61 | €430.26 |
| 500,000 | 100,500 kg | €1,883.03 | €2,151.32 |
| 1,000,000 | 201,000 kg | €3,766.06 | €4,302.64 |

<a id="calc-pack"></a>Ireland: a single glass jar is estimated at €0.0038 to €0.0043 in packaging fees.

<a id="calc-blended"></a>Ireland: across all its components, a glass jar is priced at €0.0187 to €0.0214 per kilogram of packaging.

Taken as a whole, the pack is priced at €0.0187 to €0.0214 per kilogram of packaging, so a heavier pack costs more in proportion to its weight.

Flat fee bands, registration fees and minimum charges sit outside this per-kilogram table.

<a id="schedule"></a>

## The fee schedule behind these figures for Ireland

The rates come from the 2026 schedule of Repak Regular and Scheduled Members fees for Ireland, effective January 1, 2026. The facts below record where it was published and what else the schedule charges.

<a id="fee-source"></a>Ireland: the 2026 fee schedule of Repak Regular and Scheduled Members fees, effective January 1, 2026, is the source of the per-kilogram rates used on this page.

<a id="other-stage-materials-manufacturer"></a>Ireland: the schedule lists a further fee, “Regular Member fee, Materials Manufacturer stage”, of 1.00 EUR per tonne.

<a id="other-stage-converter"></a>Ireland: the schedule lists a further fee, “Regular Member fee, Converter stage”, of 1.00 EUR per tonne.

<a id="other-stage-retailer"></a>Ireland: the schedule lists a further fee, “Regular Member fee, Retailer stage”, of 2.00 EUR per tonne.

The schedule also lists 3 other fees, which are not part of the per-kilogram estimate on this page.

<a id="levers"></a>

## Ways to lower the fee on a glass jar

Glass is heavy, so glass weight dominates the total. A lighter jar for the same volume lowers the fee more than any change to the lid or label.

The metal lid and the paper label are small in mass, but they are priced as steel and paper, which can cost more or less per kilogram than glass.

Where a programme publishes a separate rate for coloured glass or for refillable glass, the colour and the reuse model of the jar can change the line it falls under.

Food and cosmetics sellers often change jar size by a few grams between suppliers, which is why the size table above shows each size on its own.

## Questions sellers ask

### <a id="q1"></a>How much is the EPR fee for a glass jar in Ireland?

For 1,000 glass jars of the Medium (about 8 to 9 oz) size, the estimated fee is €3.77 to €4.30 on the 2026 schedule, from the published rates that fit each component.

### <a id="q2"></a>Is this the amount I will pay?

No. It is an estimate for the packaging alone. Registration fees, flat fee bands, eco-modulation and thresholds sit outside the per-kilogram figure. Instica prepares the data; you check, sign and submit it, and Instica never stores regulator login details.
