Where can you order custom made glass bottles?
Rockwood is the largest European-owned glass bottle factory in China. It designs and manufactures 500+ million custom bottles for some of the most prominent premium brands in the spirits and beverages arena annually. Its location in a Duty-Free Zone (officially referred to as a Free Trade Zone) outside Shanghai means that client orders for custom design glass bottles are exempt from import duties and VAT. Premium quality becomes synonymous with cost efficiency as well as short lead times, thanks to streamlined port and customs operations.
What is a custom design glass bottle?
It is a tailor-made bottle designed exclusively for any single client who wants to create a unique glass bottle for its liquor, spirit, or beverage brand.
When it comes to storing consumable liquids like spirits, liquors, and other beverages, choosing the right packaging material is crucial. Glass has long been revered as the ideal medium for ensuring the safety, quality, and taste of its contents. Its exceptional properties make it a superior choice over plastic bottles. In addition, when glass reaches its softening point during the manufacturing process, it becomes very malleable, meaning that it lends itself to creative and authentic designs while maintaining its durability.
Companies that come to Rockwood Glass for their exclusive glass bottles are assigned an in-house design team for the conception of their specialty bottle. Depending on the client brief and branding strategy, bespoke bottle designs can range from minimalist and refined, to striking or eccentric. Works of art that promise results on store shelves.
The decorative options available for customized glass bottles are:
- Serigraphy
- Silk-screening
- Embossing and de-bossing
- Frosting
- Engraving
- Spray painting
- Sandblasting
- Accessories
Glass bottles can also be hand-painted or hand-finished to add a layer of craftsmanship to the final product. This option is frequently chosen by companies creating a special edition bottle or a beautiful one-off piece that can even stand alone as a collector’s item.
What type of glass is used for specialty bottles?
Rockwood Glass produces glass bottles in a variety of colors and qualities. The bottles can be made of flint glass, which is a clear and colorless glass that is commonly used for wine and liquor bottles. They can also be made of super flint glass, which is a high-quality, ultra-clear glass that is often used for premium spirits and cosmetics. Black glass and cobalt blue glass are also popular options for custom glass bottles, as they provide a distinctive look.
