| Attribute | Typical Value | Notes / Units |
|---|---|---|
| Nominal Capacity | 16 fl oz (473 ml) | Standard US fluid ounce and metric volume |
| Primary Material | PET (Polyethylene terephthalate) | Food-contact grade, widely recyclable (Resin ID #1) |
| Typical Wall Thickness | 0.30 – 0.50 mm | Depends on mold and structural design |
| Neck Finish | 28 mm (common) | Thread diameter for standard screw caps/closures |
| Closure Type | Screw cap (tamper-evident option) | Polypropylene liners commonly used for sealing |
| Typical Empty Bottle Weight | ~18 – 28 g (typical ≈ 22 g) | Depends on design, shoulder shape and base reinforcement |
| Volume Tolerance | ±1% – ±2% | Typical manufacturing and filling tolerance |
| Recommended Fill Temperature (Hot-Fill) | 85 – 95 °C | Used for hot-fill pasteurization of juices to extend shelf life |
| Pasteurization / Thermal Process | HTST: e.g., 90 °C for 15–30 s (process dependent) | Alternative: aseptic or UHT processes for ambient stability |
| Shelf Life (Unopened) | Refrigerated: 30–90 days; Aseptic: 6–12 months | Depends on process (hot-fill vs aseptic) and preservative use |
| Light Transmission | High (clear PET) or Reduced (UV/opaque options) | UV-blocking additives or sleeves recommended for light-sensitive juices |
| Oxygen Barrier | Standard PET: moderate; Barrier PET/EVOH: low | Use barrier materials or oxygen scavengers for extended shelf life |
| Recyclability | Widely recyclable (PET #1) | Local recycling rules apply; lightweight design lowers transport emissions |

| Typical Sugar Content | 8 – 12 g / 100 ml (varies by fruit) | Natural sugars vary; concentrate and added sugar change values |
| Typical pH Range | ~2.8 – 4.5 | Most fruit juices are acidic; pH influences preservation |
| Viscosity Range | Clear juices: ~1–10 mPa·s; pulpy: 10–200 mPa·s | Viscosity affects filling equipment selection |
