Case Study: How a Glass Water Bottle Supplier Fixed Breakage Issues for Italy Brands

Discover how a glass water bottle supplier solved sea-freight damage for an Italy water brand with reinforced bottle design and transit-tested packaging.

Tło

Glass water bottle supplier was the key phrase an Italian premium water brand searched for after repeated transit damage hurt their retail expansion. They needed custom szklane butelki na wodę designed for both horeca channels and supermarket shelves. The final design was a 750ml slim cylindrical bottle with a long neck, heavy base, and a slightly recessed label panel. The client requested extra-clear flint glass, a consistent crown-cap finish, and optional screen printing for limited editions. They chose Yeboda because we offered stable mass production, strict dimensional control on neck finishes, and a packaging engineering team that could solve breakage from the root—not just replace bottles.

Wyzwania

High Breakage During Sea Freight

The brand reported random cracks and shoulder chips after container shipments, especially during peak summer transport.

Inconsistent Strength Between Batches

Some lots passed drop tests, while others showed weak points near the heel and base, causing unpredictable losses for distributors.

Analiza przyczyn

Packaging Was Not Matching Bottle Geometry

Our engineers found the carton partitions were too tight at the shoulder, creating pressure points during vibration and stacking.

Thermal Stress + Uneven Glass Distribution

Inspection data showed slight thickness imbalance between the heel and lower body, increasing risk when bottles faced rapid temperature changes in transit.

Rozwiązanie

Reinforced Bottle Structure Without Changing Appearance

We optimized the glass distribution by strengthening the heel zone and smoothing the transition from body to base, improving impact resistance while keeping the same elegant silhouette.

Tightened Process Control on Annealing and Finish

To reduce hidden stress, we adjusted annealing parameters and added stricter checks on neck finish tolerance to ensure caps sealed consistently.

Transit-Tested Packaging Upgrade

We redesigned the inner partitions, introduced micro-buffer spacing at the shoulder as well as tested the new packaging with vibration and stacking simulations.

In two production cycles, the client realized that there was a considerable decrease in transit damage and there were better consistency between batches. Their distributors were receiving less complaints and the brand was expanding in two new EU markets without having any doubts. Above all, the Italian employees attested that they had at last discovered a long-term glass water bottle supplier, which could provide the high quality glass bottles with beauty and strength.
