Custom Bottle Designs? - tanTALK

sjolie · 07-15-2009, 07:14 PM

Hello, First post here so if Im in the wrong category, Im sorry.

We are looking at creating our own brand of tanning products , but when it comes to bottles, we cannot find a place that can create the "exciting unique" bottles that you see most tanning products in these days. Is there a recommended bottle company most people use?

Thanks for any information, my search on the site didn't turn up much.

from my understanding u needto spend serious money to get nice bottles..all the private label bottles are but ugly and very generic looking..i would think if there was a company that easily offered nice bottles the private label companies would have them avaialable as a extra cost option

You can do anything u want if you are willing to invest.

My question is more of "WHO" to talk to about creating nice professional bottles/labels. Is there a industry standard of professionals who people can recommend?

When that genius they call JOETAN is ready he will be able to help you out. Not yet ready though.

been there, done that....did all the research.

made in China. Minimum order is anywhere from 1,000 - 5,000 MINIMUM order per bottle style.

nobody makes the bottles in North America for the high end bottles, even the bottle manufacturers here have a catalog of the nice bottles which are made in China. Much cheaper to buy from china than it is to make it themselves.

Start googling "acrylic bottle manufacturers china"

here are some in the USA to get your started...

and then you find out the pumps are all defective and very expensive and everyone hates them cause they leave $25 worth of lotion at the bottom of an impossible bottle...

Everything seems like a good idea.

For instance, I was thinking of doing a line in this bottle and ordered samples:

Well, it LOOKS good but the god dam thing is NOT AIR TIGHT as in USELESS!
