Glass Bottle Decoration Techniques

There are a variety of deep processing of glass bottles used to express different effects, such as the beauty, brightness, and color of the product, which enhance the artistic expression of the product, and better reflect the brand promotion effect.

Screen Printing and Hot Stamping: Screen printing is to make professional design and plate making first, then use printing ink to  print the logo on the surface of the bottle manually or by machine; Hot stamping is a second process of overprinting with hot stamping paper after screen printing, which can make the gold or silver color brighter, generally used for logo production

Decal: Sticking floral paper directly on the surface of the glass bottle, and then heating it through a furnace to solidify, generally used for logo production

UV printing: Using ultraviolet rays to solidify varnish on the bottle and perform varnishing treatment, generally used for logo production

Frosting and Sandblasting: Frosting is mixing hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid with chemical raw materials and water into a liquid in proportion, and then soaking the glass bottle in it to make the surface of the bottle white atomized; Sandblasting is done by using a sandblasting machine to spray different levels of sand grains with different thicknesses onto the surface of the bottle through high-pressure airflow,  which has the same effect with frosting after polishing, generally used for cosmetic packaging bottles, medicinal glass bottles, and daily necessities glass bottles.

Spray Painting and Electroplating: Spray painting is using a spray gun to spray paint into a mist on the surface of the bottle and then heat through a furnace to solidify; Electroplating is to use of the principle of electrolysis to cover the bottle with a metal coating and then heated through a furnace to solidify, generally used for wine bottles, food and beverage bottles, candle jars, glass vases or glass crafts.

Water Transfer Printing: Printing the pattern on special water transfer paper and transfer the pattern to the surface of the bottle by soaking it in water, generally used for bottle caps.

Mosaic Patches: Using glue or caulking agent to stick the glass mosaic on the surface of the glass bottle for decorative purposes， generally used for candle jars or handicrafts

Bottle body flocking: Cover the surface of the glass bottle with a layer of velvet, generally used for perfume bottles.

Bottle body cover: Cover the surface of the glass bottle with stainless steel leather, generally used for glass storage jars, oil bottles, and glass seasoning bottles.

Laser engraving: Using CNC technology as the basis and laser as the processing medium, the glass is instantly melted and vaporized to physically deform under laser irradiation to achieve the purpose of engraving patterns; generally used for logo production

Colored Drawing: Artificially paint colors on the surface of the bottle and then heat through a furnace to solidify, generally used for aesthetic purposes.

Cutting, Punching, and Polishing: Cutting and punching are to use of machine tools to divide or drill glass bottles, which are generally used for glass candle jars, lamps, and crafts; Polishing is to use of abrasive tools to finely grind the surface of glass bottles, making the surface brighter, generally used for perfume bottles.
