Homemade adjika and khrenovina (horseradish relish) at the bazaar, mustard for kholodets (meat aspic), tomato paste for lagman and shorpo, pepper sauce for ashlan-fu: hot and spicy pastes are packed in small buckets for the market stall and large ones for cafe kitchens. HTI makes food-grade buckets from 560 ml to 21 L. The lid seals into a double rim to keep odors in, the wide opening lets a spoon reach the bottom, and the OPEN tamper-evident tear strip shows whether the bucket has been opened.
Hot pastes are used by the spoonful and by the ramekin. Choose a bucket and a measure: the tool shows how many servings one bucket holds and how many buckets you need for a thousand servings. You can also set your own serving size in milliliters.
Calculated at the nominal capacity of the packaging: how many whole portions it yields.
We ship in full pallets, so the number of pallets is rounded up.
Calculated by the top size of the packaging, in a single layer, with no gaps between neighboring items.

234 mmMayonnaise and ketchup are mild, but adjika, horseradish, and mustard are products with character. They smell strong, stain everything red, and lose their heat if left open too long. That's why makers of hot pastes have their own questions about packaging, and below are answers to the four main ones.

Horseradish and mustard lose their potency in open air, and in an open bowl their bite fades noticeably. The flat lid snaps back into the double rim after every scoop and keeps garlic and pepper odors from spreading through the cold room.
Over time, tomato and pepper pastes can stain the inside wall, just as they stain any plastic container. So don't reuse an adjika bucket for dairy or cream. Stick to a simple rule: one container, one product.
Paste is thick: you don't pour it, you scoop it. The tapered body widens toward the top, so a spoon or spatula runs along the wall all the way to the bottom without leaving residue in the corners. In a cafe where paste is scooped dozens of times per shift, that saves both product and the cook's time.
At the bazaar, people buying hot paste worry that it's been watered down or tasted with a dirty spoon. The OPEN tamper-evident tear strip under the rim comes off only on first opening, and an intact bucket on the counter is more convincing than any sales pitch.
Hot pastes aren't used by the liter: the cook adds a spoonful of tomato paste to the lagman, and the server sets a ramekin of mustard next to the meat. That's why bucket size is easier to measure in servings. In the table, nominal capacity is converted into 15 ml tablespoons and 30 ml ramekins, rounded down. Compare the figures with how many dishes your kitchen serves a day.
| Volume | Model | Opening, mm | 15 ml spoonfuls | 30 ml ramekins | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 560 ml | PKS560 | 118 | 37 | 18 | homemade adjika at the bazaar |
| 900 ml | PKS900H | 127 | 60 | 30 | mustard and horseradish for retail |
| 1 L | PK10 | 132.5 | 66 | 33 | family supply, small cafe |
| 2.3 L | PK23 | 175 | 153 | 76 | shashlik cafe, small canteen |
| 3.8 L | PK38 | 200 | 253 | 126 | cafe serving local cuisine |
| 5.6 L | PK56 | 224 | 373 | 186 | lagman house, busy kitchen |
| 11.5 L | PK115 | 295 | 766 | 383 | paste producer, wholesale shipments |
If a lagman house uses one spoonful of tomato paste per serving and dishes out a hundred and fifty servings a day, a 2.3 L bucket covers one shift and a 5.6 L bucket lasts two or three days. Mustard and horseradish are used more slowly and lose their heat in an open container, so choose a smaller size than the calculator suggests.
For spicy pastes, choose the size by how quickly the paste gets eaten once opened, not by how much you produce. The slower it goes, the smaller the bucket. If your recipe is acidic and contains vinegar, test it in a trial batch of buckets before switching your whole output over.
Adjika and mustard usually sit next to mayonnaise, pickles, and marinated meat. Each of those products has its own sizing guide.

Buckets for picklessauerkraut, cucumbers, tomatoes, wild garlic1-18 LAdjika and tomato pastes are mostly made in the fall, when peppers and tomatoes get cheaper, so you need packaging for the whole canning season at once. Empty buckets arrive nested in stacks, so a month's supply for your shop fits in a corner of the storeroom. You can pick up from the factory warehouse in the Bishkek Free Economic Zone (FEZ), Ak-Chiy village, and our own trucks deliver across Bishkek and Chuy Region, including Tokmok and Kant. We ship buckets to Karakol, Osh, Jalal-Abad, Talas, and Naryn via a freight carrier, and to producers in Shymkent, Almaty, Taraz, and Astana by the pallet within the EAEU. Your sales manager confirms delivery time and cost when you place your order. If you buy your peppers and tomatoes in the south, it's easy to collect empty buckets from the factory on your way back through Bishkek.

Yes, food-grade polypropylene buckets are used for adjika, mustard, horseradish, and tomato pastes. For recipes with vinegar and lots of spices, run a trial batch and test the product and packaging together before launching full production.
Spicy pastes have a strong smell, and a bucket can hold on to it even after washing. That's why buckets that held adjika or horseradish aren't reused for dairy products or baked goods. Keep a dedicated set of buckets for your product, and pack each new batch in new buckets.
Work out how many spoonfuls of paste go into one serving and how many servings you make a day. A busy lagman house usually does well with the 5.6 L bucket, a small cafe with the 2.3 L. Large 11.5 L buckets are handy for storage and production.
Our sales manager prices each order based on size, quantity, body color, and printing. Call +996 222 600 292, tell us your products and seasonal output, and you'll get a quote for the full set of sizes at once.
Yes, with a label or in-mold labeling (IML). An IML label is fused into the wall during molding and doesn't come off in the wash, so red drips rinse away without damaging the design. One bucket mold can carry different designs for hot, medium, and mild adjika.
Yes, by the pallet within the EAEU to Shymkent, Almaty, Taraz, Astana, and other cities. Your sales manager confirms delivery time and cost when you place the order. One pallet holds 7,200 of the 900 ml buckets or 1,920 of the 5.6 L buckets.
Clear buckets show off the bright color of adjika and pepper paste on the counter. White ones hide any staining on the walls and make your branding stand out, so cafes and wholesale buyers choose them more often.
The catalog lists every bucket from 560 ml to 21 L, with dimensions and handle options. For milder sauces, see buckets for mayonnaise and sauces; for spicy salads, see buckets for Korean-style salads.
Tell our sales manager which pastes you make and who buys them: bazaar shoppers, stores, or cafes. You'll get sizes matched to each channel, a pallet count for the canning season, and tips on fitting the product name and heat level on the bucket wall. If you also make pickles or Korean carrot salad alongside adjika, mention those too: one size often works for several products at once.
