I'm looking for something to transport jars of honey to work for customers that will protect them from knocks.
I have seen polystyrene types for bottles bit haven't managed to find any smaller for jars.
Any recomendations?
Thank you

How small of a jar are you talking about? You could use some rigid foam sheeting to make dividers for a box, like the cardboard dividers a wine box has, except with foam.

You could find a container and place empty jars in it wrapped in cling wrap or rubbed with some Vaseline then use sprayfoam. Once hardened remove jars and clean them/remove cling wrap and you have a protective case molded to the jars

I'm assuming you are a beekeeper and the jars of honey are one of your products? When I store and/or transport jars of honey I just put the jars back in the case the empty jars came in. I keep a couple of "cut down" case for smaller quantities but can also just place them in a box and jam in some crumpled newspapers.
