Why Glass Milk Bottles Are Becoming More Popular
Superior Environmental Performance: Glass is infinitely recyclable, and the energy required for recycling, cleaning, and disinfecting is far less than that required for remanufacturing cartons or plastic bottles. Consumers can receive a reward for returning glass bottles, which not only encourages environmentally friendly behavior but also reduces the environmental impact of packaging waste.
High Safety: Glass is chemically stable and does not react with milk during storage, ensuring the consistency of milk's composition, effectively preserving its nutritional value and fresh taste. It also eliminates the risk of chemical migration, such as the absence of bisphenol A (BPA), providing greater consumer peace of mind.
Cost Advantage: For small-scale manufacturers, carton packaging is complex and expensive, making glass bottles a good alternative. The packaging material cost per 10,000 servings of milk bottled milk is less than a quarter of that of gable-top cartons. Operating costs are also lower than those of Tetra Pak. Cleaning, filling, high-temperature sterilization, and low-temperature refrigeration are all simple and cost-effective. Enhance product image: Glass bottles offer excellent transparency, allowing consumers to immediately see the color and properties of the milk, creating a fresh and intuitive experience. Unique design and patterning can also enhance product value, making the product appear more upscale and satisfying consumers' demand for high-quality products.
Meet emotional needs: Milk in glass bottles carries the memories of a generation, evoking a sense of nostalgia and allowing consumers to reminisce about the good old days. This emotional appeal also makes glass milk bottles popular with some consumers.
Excellent freshness preservation: Glass bottles offer a strong seal, effectively preventing the intrusion of air and moisture, protecting the milk from environmental influences. Furthermore, when refrigerated, glass experiences a slower temperature rise than plastic bottles or cartons, effectively maintaining a cool environment and promoting milk freshness preservation.
