Types of Packaging Accessories We Offer
McKernan carries a wide selection of accessories designed for a variety of packaging applications. Explore our accessory categories below to find the right fit for your produt and industry needs.
Sets & Kits
Sets and kits are a fit for cosmetics, beauty, gift-focused packaging, automotive and more brands that want a matched, ready-to-fill package instead of sourcing components separately. A nail polish set combines a bottle, cap and brush in one complete unit. McKernan carries jar sets, bottle sets, dropper tip sets, airless packaging, tins, collapsible tube sets, make-up packaging sets and more.
Droppers
Droppers are a popular choice for essential oils, tinctures, serums and pet care liquids that need precise, drop-by-drop dispensing. They're a staple in pharmaceutical, personal care and pet product lines. McKernan stocks plastic and glass pipette styles, tamper evident, graduated and child resistant closures for regulated products and metal shelled droppers for a more premium look.

Metal Tins
Metal tins work well for balms, salves, solid perfumes, candles and specialty food products where a reusable, giftable container adds to the products appeal. McKernan carries sizes from a quarter ounce to twenty-two ounces, with many available in-between with sliding, flat or press-on closure options.
Measuring Cups & Spoons
Measuring cups and spoons are built for products where accurate dosing matters, including drink mixes, supplements, medications, laundry products and home and garden items. McKernan carries both single-measurement and graduated styles in polypropylene (PP), in a range of colors.

Aerosol Cans
Aerosol packaging shows up across personal care, household and automotive lines, from hairsprays and dry shampoos to cleaners and lubricants. McKernan carries a variety of aerosol cans in a straight-sided, round and bullet shapes, along with matching valves, actuators and caps.
Cans & Can Ends
Cans and can ends fit food and beverage and household non-pressurized packaging applications. McKernan carries metal and metal/composite cans without one or both ends, plus can ends to fit many non-aerosol cans, in plain styles or with a pull tab.
Plugs
Plugs are a fit for fragrance, essential oil and herbal extract products that need controlled dispensing or a finished look on a bottle, including sample perfume vials. McKernan carries orifice reducers, dropper tip reducers, nasal applicators and Euro style orifice reducers for continuous thread closures.

Dip Tubing
Dip tubing keeps sprayers and pumps working correctly across whatever bottle height a product line calls for. McKernan offers custom dip tube lengths for fine mist sprayers, lotion pumps, treatment pumps, foamer pumps, trigger sprayers and crimp sprayers. We can also rework many sprayers or pumps to a different length for an additional fee.
Other Accessories
Other accessories include an assortment of components such as portion cups, pails, bags, trays, collars, applicators, fitments, sealing discs and stoppers. This category is consistently changing with new items added weekly. Because the assortment is so broad, we recommend requesting samples to test compatibility with your specific product.
