Plastic flip top containers are the pocket format in branded confectionery, small enough to carry all day, practical enough to open one-handed, and useful enough that people keep them rather than discarding them after the first use. The range covers two fill tiers. At 35g, jelly beans, mints, chewy fruits, M&Ms, and Skittles sit in a container that fills a palm and makes a solid giveaway at a trade show table or event entry point. At 20g, mini jelly beans in single or mixed colours, mini mints, and mini M&Ms move into a slightly more refined package that sits in a shirt pocket or jacket pocket with less bulk. Both sizes start from 100 units. The containers come in red, yellow, green, blue, black, and white, which means the case itself can complement brand colours independently of the sticker, giving a co-ordinated presentation before anyone reads the label. Most items carry the Australian Made badge. The flip top hinge opens with one thumb and stays open while filling the hand, rather than requiring both hands to manage a screw cap or pull lid. That convenience is part of why these travel well in bags, pockets, and on airline and train seat trays.
A travel agency handing out branded flip top cases at a trade show gets a giveaway that leaves the venue with every attendee and stays in a bag or pocket for days. The Australian Made jelly bean cases bring a local-made quality signal to a product going to a broad audience.
Matching the case colour to the brand extends the presentation beyond the sticker to the container itself.
Product Knowledge
What is the difference between the 35g and 20g flip top containers?
The 35g container is the larger of the two and holds a more generous fill. It's the practical choice for a trade show giveaway where cost per unit matters and the fill quantity makes the gift feel worthwhile. The 20g container is smaller, holds a lighter fill, and costs more per unit. This counterintuitive combination reflects a higher-quality container or more premium presentation format. The 20g suits contexts where the container is expected to be carried regularly and the compact size is a feature rather than a limitation.
Can the container colour be matched to a brand?
Yes, containers are available in red, yellow, green, blue, black, and white. A business can select the case colour closest to their brand palette and combine it with a matching sticker for a co-ordinated result. A red case with a red and white sticker reads as a cohesive branded piece rather than a generic lolly container with a label applied. This colour range is one of the features that distinguishes the flip top from a plain clear plastic container.
Do M&Ms and Skittles add value over generic confectionery fills?
Yes, M&Ms and Skittles are recognised consumer brands. A branded flip top container filled with M&Ms carries two brand associations at once. The external brand is on the sticker and the M&Ms brand is on the fill. Most people who pick up a container and see M&Ms inside are more likely to keep it than if the fill were an unbranded equivalent. That recognition adds perceived value without adding significantly to the unit cost relative to other fills in this range.
Are these suitable for airline or travel use?
Yes, the flip top container is specifically noted in the range for travel industry use. Airlines, train operators, and travel agencies use them as in-transit branded treats. The container seals fully when closed, prevents spilling in a bag or on a seat tray, and opens and closes repeatedly through the journey. The compact size means it fits in an airline seat pocket, a car door holder, or a jacket pocket without bulk.
