Initial Inquiry: May 3, 2025
When this French client first approached us through our official website on May 3, 2025, they immediately shared their vision for developing a brand-new flagship product. The goal was very clear from the beginning: to create a 500ml borosilicate luxury glass water bottle that would be practical for mixing powdered nutritional supplements while also delivering a premium and elegant appearance. The client emphasized that this product would represent the core of their new product line, so both aesthetics and functionality had to be perfectly balanced.
After several rounds of discussions, the final agreed design was a 500ml high-borosilicate drinking water glass bottle paired with a white stainless steel lid. The bottle features a semi-frosted finish, white logo silk-screen printing, and white capacity scale lines. The lid is made from 304 stainless steel, with an internal white plastic insert and sealing gasket, ensuring both durability and leak-proof performance.
Challenges and Solutions
1. Initial Development Stage
In the early stages, before finalizing the design, the main challenge was to determine the most suitable solution for the client’s unique vision. The client wanted the bottle to be visually premium but also easy to use for dissolving powdered supplements. To assist them in visualizing their ideas, we utilized our in-house design resources to create realistic 3D mock-ups of possible bottle decorations. These mock-ups played a critical role in helping the client make decisions.
We then provided two different design options: one with a fully frosted bottle and another with a semi-frosted bottle. In addition, we developed several prototypes, including two versions of silk-screen printing, as well as two variations of lid decoration. Through this iterative process, the client was able to compare and refine their choices. Ultimately, they selected the semi-frosted version with white silk-screen logo and scale lines, combined with the 304 stainless steel lid with white plastic insert and gasket.
2. Pre-Production Sample Adjustments
Once prototyping was completed and the project moved to the mass production stage, we prepared final pre-production glass hot water bottle samples for approval. This step was critical to avoid any quality or functional issues during bulk manufacturing. Although the client’s timeline was extremely tight, they still requested last-minute adjustments. For example, they asked us to reposition the logo so it would be perfectly centered, and they wanted the scale lines to reflect the actual water capacity with high precision. Despite the time pressure, we fulfilled every request to the client’s satisfaction, ensuring the final product met their exact expectations.
3. Tight Delivery Schedule
Another significant challenge was the client’s delivery requirements. They requested two different shipping methods for this custom glass water bottle 500ml: one batch by air freight to be received by the end of August, and another batch by rail freight to arrive by the end of September. To guarantee these deadlines, our team closely monitored production progress, coordinated with the factory at every stage, and overcame numerous logistical difficulties. Thanks to this strict control, we successfully completed the shipments within the required deadlines. If you want to find a professional glass water bottles manufacturer.
