Epoxy: light sensitivity

I notice that all epoxy components come in opaque containers, is this because the unmixed components are UV/light unstable. I am just considering how I will store the last 50mls out of the 5 litre containers (free up a little storage space until next time). I have some nice size plastic containers but they are not completely opaque
thanks
