| Specification | Typical Values / Description | Industry Range | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Application | Bottling of still juices, nectars, cold-pressed juices, smoothies and RTD fruit blends. | — | Formulation pH and particulate content influence material choice. |
| Primary Materials | Soda-lime glass (clear/colored), food-grade PET (biaxially oriented), and specialty borosilicate for hot-fill applications. | Glass / PET / Borosilicate | Material selected for barrier, weight, recyclability and thermal process. |
| Common Capacities | 150 ml, 250 ml, 330 ml, 500 ml, 750 ml and 1,000 ml formats used in retail and foodservice. | 150–1000 ml | 250–500 ml most prevalent for single-serve juices. |
| Neck & Finish | Screw-cap finishes (28 mm variants common for PET), wide-mouth finishes for smoothies; glass finishes tailored per closure specification. | 28 mm / 38 mm / Wide | Neck finish critical for sealing and automated filler compatibility. |
| Manufacturing Process | Injection stretch blow molding (PET); blow-and-blow or press-and-blow (glass); cold-fill and hot-fill compatible options. | ISBM / P&B / B&B | Process chosen based on material and throughput requirements. |
| Typical Line Output | Production lines span laboratory-scale to high-speed; PET high-speed lines reach tens of thousands bottles/hour; glass IS units vary by machine and cavity count. | ~1,000–36,000 bottles/hour | Actual throughput depends on machine configuration, cavity count and bottle shape. |
| Wall Thickness | Glass bottles commonly 2.0–5.0 mm; PET bottles typically 0.25–0.6 mm depending on weight optimization. | Glass 2.0–5.0 mm; PET 0.25–0.6 mm | Thickness affects strength, thermal resistance and transport weight. |
| Typical Empty Weight | 250 ml glass: ~150–220 g; 500 ml glass: ~250–400 g. PET 250–500 ml: ~10–35 g depending on lightweighting. | PET 10–35 g; Glass 150–400 g | Weights vary with design features (handles, shoulders) and safety factors. |
| Dimensional Tolerances | Critical neck finish tolerance tight (typically ±0.05–0.2 mm); body dimensions ±0.5–2.0 mm depending on spec. | Neck ±0.05–0.2 mm; Body ±0.5–2.0 mm | Tolerances validated by CMM or dedicated gauging fixtures. |
| Barrier / OTR | Glass: near-impermeable for oxygen; PET: oxygen transmission rate varies with grade and coatings; barrier coatings or EVOH layers used for extended shelf life. | PET OTR ~0.5–5 cc/m²·day (approx.) | Hot-fill products often use thicker PET or special coatings to maintain shelf life. |
| Thermal Resistance | Glass tolerates pasteurization and high-temperature processes; PET variants available for hot-fill (up to ~85–95°C for short cycles). | Glass high; PET up to ~85–95°C (hot-fill grades) | Borosilicate used when extended thermal shock resistance required. |
| Food Safety & Certifications | Compliance with widely-adopted food contact regulations and standards (e.g., FDA food-contact guidance, EU food contact framework); quality systems like ISO 9001 and food safety management standards commonly implemented. | ISO 9001 / ISO 22000 / HACCP | Certs and testing (migration, extractables) typically available on request for specific SKUs. |
| Surface Finish & Decoration | Silk-screen printing, hot stamping, full-body shrink-sleeves, cold-end coatings, and PVD or vacuum coatings for metallic effects. | Multiple options | Decoration choice impacts recyclability path (e.g., sleeves vs direct printing). |
| Recycled Content & Recycling | Glass is fully recyclable with high closed-loop potential; PET supports post-consumer recycled (PCR) content—typical PCR levels vary regionally and by product specification. | PCR commonly 10–50% (varies) | Local recycling infrastructure strongly affects achievable recycled content. |
| Tooling & Lead Times | Standard SKU lead times short; custom mold/tooling for blow molds or injection molds typically requires multi-week lead times with prototype cycles. | Tooling 8–16 weeks (typical) | Expedited programs and sample runs are often available for new product launches. |
| Quality Assurance Tests | Dimensional gauging, visual inspection, pressure/vacuum testing, leak testing, drop and shock tests, migration and residual monomer analysis for polymers. | In-line & lab tests | Batch certificates and test reports commonly provided for food-contact batches. |
| Sustainability Metrics (Examples) | Regional recycling recovery rates and energy use per kg vary; manufacturers commonly report recycled content, recyclability and CO2 intensity metrics per SKU when requested. | Recycling recovery (region): Glass 60–90% / PET 25–65% | Metrics should be validated per region and production process. |
| Typical Closures | Tamper-evident screw caps, sports caps with spouts, induction liners for vacuum seal, and crown caps for specialty glass bottles. | Screw / Sport / Crown | Closure compatibility must be verified for automated capping lines and product viscosity. |
