Food and Beverage | Ecusterine Media Blog https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog Mon, 11 Jul 2022 10:27:36 +0000 en-US hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=5.5.11 Why is storing water in a Glass Bottle more useful than storing it in a Plastic Bottle? https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/why-is-storing-water-in-a-glass-bottle-more-useful-than-storing-it-in-a-plastic-bottle/ Sat, 15 Jan 2022 06:36:36 +0000 https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/?p=2285 What do we have in the market as options for a water bottle?

At present, there are several options available in the market to carry our water in; the multi-coloured ones, the fancy ones, the ones that can work as medicine for us and most popular the economic ones. And the common material that is being used to make these bottles are Plastic, Copper, Steel, Mud etc.  But what if we want something that does not put anything into the water and just maintains the quality and purity of water, the minerals the water has in it at the time of packaging. That does not allow water to compromise on any of its factors. The material that we are talking about is GLASS.

Why is water necessary for us?

Water is one of the necessities without which we cannot imagine our life on earth. Some of the very important and popular facts known to us are that Planet Earth is made up of about 71 per cent of water, a human body consists of up to 60 per cent of water (different organs in our body require different percentages of water for their proper functioning) and our blood is made up of 90 per cent of water. These facts are adequate to teach us the significance of water.

It is a general suggestion by experts that one should drink 6 to 8 glasses of water per day.

The safest, healthiest, and economical option for everyone is to carry a bottle of water that can be refilled throughout the day. And the material chosen to fill your product can greatly affect the health of your product’s consumer.

Why pack drinking water in Glass Bottles?

Protecting the environment and individual’s health is the one major consent of our Centre Govt., so amendments and new policies have been implemented. So, for these reasons, we as a glass packaging solution providing company urge our clients to switch from plastic water bottles to glass water bottles. It is not only eco-friendly but maintains the purity and crisp taste of your product even after being packed for several days, gives a fascination to your customers by its aesthetic look and last but not the least good for health by not allowing any chemical leaching. Let’s discuss some more benefits in little detail.

Let’s get a deeper insight! 

Glass Bottle don’t hold the odours and after taste of the liquid that is kept in it unlike plastic or metal bottle 

This is the quality that a client expects from a water bottle. When consumers purchase a product, they usually reuse the packaging containers. But if the water bottles are used to pack juices or any other liquid that has a particular taste or a particular smell and is being absorbed by the bottle then that bottle will remain of no use to the consumer. In short, a consumer expects value for money. Sometimes it’s not the liquid that leaves smell or after taste. It’s the packing material that leaches into the product. To avoid all the above-mentioned issues, a product manufacturer should opt for Glass Bottles.

Glass Bottle helps us to maintain the cleanliness and freshness of the water all day long

The chances are very high that any unwanted element may flow into the water during the filling or capping process and consuming it might affect the health of the consumer and might make a company liable to face legal issues. As glass is a transparent material, we ensure that the water, packed in the bottles is clean and free from any contaminants. And in addition to that, the freshness and taste of the water are also intact.

Maintaining the hygiene of a Glass Bottle is very easy

The see-through property of a glass water bottle allows us to identify whether the bottle is properly washed and sterilized before the bottle is placed on the filling machine. When the consumer purchases the product from the market as stated in the above point he/she will get value for money as the bottle can easily be cleaned with a soft brush or can be placed in a dishwasher and is ready to be reused. Yes, a glass water bottle is safe to use in dishwashers also. Product manufacturers may also have this doubt that if their product consumer tried to clean the bottle at home in the dishwasher, the bottle will break and this decreases the trust of the consumer in the brand. The dishwasher temperature will neither break the bottle nor melt the glass, as the melting point of the glass is very high, which might not be attained in household activities. So you can stay rest assured for consumers’ loyalty to your brand.

Glass Bottle is eco-friendly

A glass bottle is eco-friendly as the main raw material used for making glass is sand. Glass bottles are 100 per cent recyclable which is an advantage. Instead of occupying space in landfills, crushed glass also known as Cult can be separated according to colour and will be used as a raw material. This will save energy, resources majorly also there will be fewer emissions in the environment.

In short, a glass bottle is a packaging material that is the need of the hour with many benefits to the product manufacturers, environment and consumer’s health.

Your Brand Name Looks Much Beautiful On Glass Bottle As Compare To Plastic Bottle https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/your-brand-name-looks-much-beautiful-on-glass-bottle-as-compare-to-plastic-bottle/ Sat, 04 Sep 2021 12:00:11 +0000 https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/?p=2247 While it takes a few seconds to analyze the first impressions of a person, it only takes a fraction of that time for a customer to examine your goods against the competition on the shelf. A buyer may not taste your item before coming to a decision. Instead, they may judge a book by the cover or an item by its packaging. It is where the material comes into play. The vast majority of jars, bottles, and jugs on the aisles comprise glass or plastic, and there are a few compelling reasons why Glass Bottles, in all its bulky beauty, is preferable to plastic.

Perceived Quality

Food products packaged in Glass Jars have a higher level of attractiveness than those packaged in plastic. Glass provides a premium experience in terms of look, feel, and weight. It is important for luxury fruit drinks, craft iced lattes, and other products that wish to project a refined image for advertising.

Characteristics And Chemical Compatibility

Glass’s inertness and impermeability make it suitable for sensitive items in the pharmaceutical and personal care industries and liquids that must be stored for long periods, such as spirits and other alcoholic beverages. Because it is less permeable to CO2 and O2, it keeps fizzy drinks bubbling for longer. Glass Containers can withstand a wide range of temperatures and will not distort when pasteurized.

Environmental Factors and Recycling

Even though glass requires more energy to create and ship, it is 100% recyclable. It means that when glass is recycled, the end product maintains its quality. Because glass can be washed and sanitized, one can reuse it. Although you can recycle most plastics, they do degrade over time. It implies that when you recycle a plastic bottle, it is often used for synthetic garments or carpets rather than making another bottle.

Toxicity

Glass containers are non-toxic, free of potentially dangerous compounds, and do not have links to any detrimental health effects. It has a lower porosity than plastic. Even when confined for extended periods, it has excellent resistance to seeping into your goods. As public awareness of bisphenol A (BPA) and other possibly toxic substances in plastics grows, people want to use organic or all-natural goods like glass items.

Why Should You Love Glass?

Glass is more hygienic than plastic. Glass has a nonporous surface that does not absorb microorganisms (and smells). You may safely clean glass in your dishwasher at extreme heat. You may reuse and recycle your glass jars multiple times, which saves you money. You don’t have to wait for the food to cool completely before storing leftovers inside glass containers. In contrast to ceramic or SS containers, glass allows you to see what’s inside. You can securely monitor food while reheating without touching the lids because you can look inside a Glass container.

When opposed to its plastic alternative, anything served from a Glass Container absolutely tastes better. Unlike plastic, glass is free of hazardous compounds including phthalates, and polycarbonate. As a result, nothing can seep into the liquid you’re drinking from a Glass Container. Aside from the recycling issue, you’re most likely to reuse your glass jars, jugs, and containers repeatedly and in inventive ways.

Aside from not needing to worry about harmful chemicals seeping from a petroleum-derived substance, glass is just more durable and endures the passage of time. Glass is a stunning material. It contains our ancestors’ and forefathers’ history. It’s romantic and nostalgic. You wouldn’t put a message in a plastic bottle and chuck it into the water, would you?

Consumers love glass packaging because of its engaging design. Drinks and food packed in glass containers have numerous advantages for your business. Glass bottles are attractive, clean, long-lasting, and durable.

Glass bottle packaging has been around for a long time. Ecusterine Media has been supplying high-quality glass bottles to the packaging industry at low prices for many years. Consumers seek environmentally friendly and best packaging for their products, so switching from plastic to glass containers has gained favor in recent years. Below are some of the essential advantages of glass packaging, so you can see why it is the ideal packaging option.

Design

The clarity of glass packaging ensures that your product is visible, allowing it to stand out on any shelf or table. The transparency movement is most prevalent in the beverage industry. Glass containers designed by experienced designers with years of experience in the glass packaging industry are sold by Ecusterine Media. You may get sophisticated designs that are ideal for keeping liquids at Ecusterine Media.

Healthy

Glass packaging is a hygienic material that, since it is nonporous and impermeable, preserves the flavor, purity, and quality of whatever you store in it. Glass containers allow drinks and food to be heated and cooled without risk of contamination. Because glass is a more heat-resistant material, it does not melt and release particles that could mix with the substance it contains when heated in the microwave, oven, or stove.

The nature of glass bottles and jars prevents harmful chemicals from contaminating foods and liquids. Chemical interactions are almost non-existent in the glass. As a result, consumers who prefer glass-packaged goods or beverages avoid potential risks while also benefiting from various advantages.

Sustainability

Glass is a completely recyclable material with an unlimited cycle of renewal. As a result, it may be recycled and reused indefinitely, lessening the environmental effect. Sustainability is one of Ecusterine Media’s fundamental interests, and this concern reflects in the design of our goods. As a result, we have chosen glass as the primary raw material for our packaging.

Preserves Freshness

Glass is the most excellent material for food and beverage containers for a reason. It has a non-porous, non-toxic surface with a high impermeability rate that prevents contaminants from leaching into your food or beverages. As a result, glass bottles are an excellent material for liquids that need to be kept for a long time, such as wine or liquor, because the flavor of the pleasant goods is conserved. It also holds smells and carbonation well, making it an excellent choice for water and soda storage.

Aesthetics

Glass packaging is luxurious and visually appealing. Because glass has been such a popular packing method for so long, it exudes a vintage or retro vibe. When a customer hands a glass bottle, their emotions are incredibly different than when they hold a plastic bottle because of the smooth, excellent texture.

Natural

Glass packaging comes from readily available natural materials. Combining these natural components gives a single clear component which is glass. The manufacturing process does not require the addition of any extra materials or chemical layers.

Reusable

Most plastic packaging degrades immediately after the product is used or consumed. As a result, consumers nowadays opt for reusable glass packaging. Glass bottles and containers are good because you can reuse them with straightforward cleaning techniques. Businesses are beginning to develop bottle return systems, and some are even rewarding customers who participate. Ecusterine Media can provide your company with glass bottles that may be purchased and delivered to your location.

The Best Packaging Option

Package decisions are never easy to make, but when the decision is made to offer products in plastic packaging, line items like cost and logistics are often top of mind. While these factors are crucial, there are numerous other reasons to use glass packaging.

Companies are increasingly adopting more environmentally friendly packaging for their products. Manufacturers of alcoholic beverages, sauces, juices, oils, and other products significantly gain from glass packaging adoption. These industries can credit some of their success to product packaging, and they have a good understanding of who their products appeal to. Once you’ve identified your ideal customer, make sure your packaging reflects them at every point of the buying process.

Tips For Packaging Your Food In The Glass Bottles https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/tips-for-packaging-your-food-in-the-glass-bottles/ Sat, 10 Jul 2021 10:57:20 +0000 https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/?p=2132 Let’s look at the advantages and disadvantages of glass packaging, which has been used for many years, particularly in the food and beverage industries. You’ve almost certainly sipped a cold beverage from a glass bottle and remember how it felt in your palm. Glass has a distinct look and many appealing features, but it isn’t without flaws. It’s important to understand the advantages and disadvantages of adopting glass as your primary container or packaging material before making a decision.

Alcoholic beverage packaging is the most popular application in the global glass packaging industry. The expanding use of glass packaging in food and pharmaceutical packaging is a major driver of this market. Glass packaging’s significant qualities of long-term preservation, recycling, and reuse are projected to boost the glass packaging market over the forecast period. Glass packaging is strongly reliant on cutting-edge design and technology. High costs and a preference for plastic over glass packaging are limiting the global glass packaging business.

Glass is a naturally occurring material

Glass is made from natural resources that are readily available. These components are combined to form a single material through alchemy. It is possible to finish it without using any additional materials or chemical layers.

A better presence of carbon

Finally, as a seller or retailer, you must consider the benefits and drawbacks of glass packaging for your particular products. Do you value recyclability above everything else, or would you rather save money on shipping? Consider each factor carefully, analyze your budget, and keep in mind the type of brand image you want to present to your target market. Many commodities and merchants benefit from glass containers and packaging, but it may not be the best option for everyone.

Glass is completely recyclable

Glass recycling is a closed-loop system that generates no waste or waste products. Glass is one of the few materials that can be recycled multiple times without deteriorating in quality.

Maintains the freshness of the meal

There’s a good reason why glass is so often used in food and beverage containers. It has a non-porous, non-toxic surface with a high rate of permeability, which means it won’t leech contaminants into your snacks or drinks, which is a risk with plastic containers. As a result, glass is a wonderful material for liquids that will be preserved for a long time, such as wine or liquor, because it preserves the flavor of your tasty goods. It also holds odors and carbonation well, making it an excellent choice for perfume, seltzer water, or soda.

Product security

Food and beverage packaging made of glass is one of the safest materials available. It is non-toxic and does not necessitate the use of any additional lining materials. Because glass is GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by the FDA, it is the only widely-used food packaging material to do so.

Appeal to the eye

Glass has always been of the greatest quality and will continue to be so. The colour of a glass bottle never fades and it has a long shelf life. Bottles from Ajanta Bottles are clear, allowing your product to shine. It’s also a good idea to use different glass tints to incorporate your brand’s colours and/or overall identity.

Aesthetic and Feeling of High Quality

It’s crucial to think about how your customers will feel when they use your products, and glass offers a distinct sense of luxury. Because glass has been such a popular packaging option for so long, it gives off an antique or retro vibe. When a customer grabs a glass bottle, their sensations are considerably different than when they hold a simple plastic bottle because of the smooth, chilly touch. Glass is frequently viewed by consumers as providing a more pleasant, premium, and conventional experience.

Wrap up

Finally, as a seller or retailer, you must consider the benefits and drawbacks of glass packaging for your particular products. Do you value recyclability above everything else, or would you rather save money on shipping? Consider each factor carefully, analyze your budget, and keep in mind the type of brand image you want to present to your target market. Many commodities and merchants benefit from glass containers and packaging, but it may not be the best option for everyone.

Honey in Glass Jars – 6 Important Factors to Know https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/honey-in-glass-jar/ Thu, 29 Oct 2020 06:23:07 +0000 https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/?p=1969 Honey in glass jar is the ideal packaging practice followed worldwide.

Since ancient periods, honey has been used as both food and medicine. It is very high in beneficial plant compounds and offers several health benefits, and that is why that is consumed widely all over the world.

It is a great substitute for sugar and is less harmful than sugar for people with diabetes. But the product may not be able to deliver its core benefits and utility if it is delivered in the wrong packing material. 

Hence, anyone who is investing in a premium sweetener like all-natural raw honey, then spending a bit more time to consider the right packaging material, is utterly important.

The packaging that is considered best and is also widely used is glass.

The points below discuss the same.

It is important to store honey in airtight containers because it helps to protect the water content of the honey.  If water is allowed to evaporate and the water is thus extracted from the honey it will crystallize quicker.  If water is allowed to enter the honey then it will have high chances of fermentation.  Honey will not ferment if its water content is under 17.1%. The glass bottles/jars which has gas and moisture barrier will prevent any contact between air, moisture, and liquid with packed honey, and thus honey in glass jar is the right choice.

These jars are sealed with airtight metal caps, which are opened only when consumed by customers. Hence to ensure longer life of your honey and to lessen cost associated with contamination or spoilage of honey due to air and moisture, honey in glass jar is packed by many producers.

There is no contest between plastic and glass bottles in terms of looks and attractiveness. Packing honey in glass jars or bottles surely makes the product look premium and classy and greatly increases the chances of sales as it is in everyone’s subconscious to buy or prefer something that looks better and attractive. 

Also, the transparency of glass allows for a clear showcase of the product, which ensures the customer that everything is perfect with the product. While an original logo and label communicate your brand ultimately, but the selection of incorrect packaging material can make your brand look dull. Hence it is of utmost importance to select packaging material like glass bottles or glass jars that fulfills this criterion exceptionally well.

In recent times, due to the extreme emergence of DIY (do it yourself trend) decorations, the glass jars or bottles do not become useless as honey finishes but offer additional utility in terms of home decorations. Many people have posted several ideas on social media of how the empty and useless glass bottles can be used for different types of decorations on festivals like Diwali, Christmas etc. 

Other than that, these glass bottles or glass jars can also be used to store different stuff like spices, oils, staples etc. Every time the consumers use these stored products in glass jars, they actually get a reminder of the actual product they purchased earlier, which increases the chances of purchasing the same product again.

And finally, due to increased demand for those products which are packed in materials that follow 3R’s of sustainability and reduce waste generation, there is actually a fairly higher chance that your product will be bought if it is packed in material like glass bottles.

7 Reasons to Pack Pickle in Glass Jars https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/7-reasons-to-pack-pickle-in-glass-jars/ Mon, 26 Oct 2020 10:25:29 +0000 https://cyprue-commerce.aphroecs.com/blog/?p=30 Pickle in glass jars is the choice made by many leading brands. To keep the pickle freshness and quality for a long time, it is important that it maintains a proper seal and a maximum shelf life.

In this regard, selection of the right packaging material for pickles assumes great importance. 

Below are the seven critical reasons why pickles should be packed in glass jars:

1. Pickle in Glass Jar Get Extended Shelf Life:

While packing spices, it must be ensured that the container is airtight and does not allow any contact between the spices and the moisture and air.

Spices are hygroscopic, so they can interact with the moisture in the air. Air brings moisture, which can cause some powdered spices to cake. Air can also result in spices losing their flavor due to the loss of volatile oils by evaporation.

When exposed to humidity, the mould develops which not only spoils the spices but also produces mycotoxins that are genotoxic, carcinogenic or lead to food-borne illnesses. 

Since glass jars come with metal tight caps and gas barrier properties, the spices remain safe from the above-mentioned threats which help in extension of their shelf life.

2.Glass Preserves the Originally Intended Aroma of the Pickle:

It should not alter, change or react with the ingredients of pickles that cause a change in the taste or flavor of the pickle. Glass meets this requirement as it is made from inert and natural materials which helps the companies provide the intended taste and flavor of the pickle or jam or honey to the consumers.

3. Pickle in Glass Jar receives Protection against Oxygen and Moisture:

Oxygen gives the harmful microorganisms one leg up. That’s because oxygen encourages the spread of spoilage microbes. Any exposed pickle becomes a breeding ground for the harmful microbes if the packaging is allowing the oxygen to enter. Although the oils and other ingredients slow this process but still prolonged interaction with oxygen can be dangerous. Similarly, exposed to moisture, pickles can turn rancid and bitter in taste. Oil is not water-soluble; hence, water can destroy the surface of the pickle by not dissolving in the oil content. It may cause fungus to develop on the layer of the pickle, spoiling most of the product. 

Pickle in glass jars are protected from the moisture and oxygen in the environment because of the airtight metal caps and gas barrier property of glass itself. Therefore packing pickles in glass jars can surely prolong its life.

4. Glass is Unreactive to the Acids and Oils Present in the Pickles:

The packaging material used for pickles should be unreactive to the tartaric acid present. For example, if we pack pickles in metal containers, a chemical reaction between metal and acid would cause the formation of different kinds of salts and hydrogen that will make the pickle content toxic and would release a terrible odor. 

Since glass bottles are made of synthetic and natural material, it makes them unreactive to most of the acids and protects the pickle in glass jars from chemical contamination.

5. Glass makes the Product Look Attractive and Premium:

A company can make a good quality pickle, but if it is packed cheaply or in an unattractive way, it can inevitably cause some potential customers to not buy it. It is human nature that everyone wants their product to look attractive. Therefore glass jars win at this point as well. They are attractive, allow product visibility, and appear premium in the eyes of customers. Thus, pickle in glass jars definitely score high.

6. Glass Provides a Comfortable Experience with the Product:

For example, when a pickle packed in the plastic jar is used over time, it loses its shape and design as it bends inward on different sides or shifts its shape to an inconvenient form. This can cause problems when your customers are trying to take out the last bits of the product. Glass always stays in the same shape regardless of how much a consumer tries to bend it or twist it.

7. Glass is the Only Material Recognised as GRAS:

Glass is the only food packaging granted the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) status. It is regarded the trusted and proven packaging for health, taste, and the environment. Therefore glass jars are considered best for packing products such as pickles widely all over the world.

Boutique Jam/Marmalades in Glass Jars https://www.ecusterinemediaecommerce.com/blog/boutique-jam-and-marmalades-by-home-chefs-in-glass-jars-5-things-to-know/ Mon, 26 Oct 2020 08:48:31 +0000 https://cyprue-commerce.aphroecs.com/blog/?p=33

Packing Boutique Jam and Marmalades at Home in Glass Jars: – 5 Things to Know

Are you a product owner who is packing jam and marmalades at home in glass jars and selling commercially or someone who is planning to enter this segment.
Please ensure you follow these five important steps before you pack your jam in a glass jar.The process is quite simple and straightforward, as explained below:
1. When the glass jars arrive at your doorstep packed in shrink/cartons, the first important step is inspection, that is, to open the box and then invert every glass jar.
This step is necessary to find out the presence of any foreign particle and dust as well as to check for any breakage in the glass jars.
2. The second step deals with washing the glass jar. This process helps prevent the growth of bacteria or food-borne botulism. You just need to wash these glass jars in running warm water.
The next question that arises is that what should be the temperature of the water?
The glass jars should be washed at room temperature plus maximum 42 degree celsius. For example, if the room temperature is 30 degree celsius, then glass jars can be washed at a temperature of about 72 degree celsius.
Please note that a sudden variation of 42 degrees or more, either upwards or downwards can lead to micro checks formed in the bottle, which will lead to breakages afterwards.
3. The third step relates to drying/removing extra water. You do not need any special, chemical cleaners or fancy wipe tissues to wipe the glass jars.
Invert the glass jar to remove excess water and start the filling. Please do not wait for the glass to dry completely because if this is the case, then it might break when you fill the jam.
4. Filling constitutes the fourth important factor to take care of. Ensure that the jam you are packing is at a temperature of at least 90 degrees, and the glass jar temperature is at least 50 degree at that time.
Further, as soon as the jam goes inside the clean jar, cap it immediately.
When the jam cools down, you will see that cap automatically sucked in by the vacuum thus created, forming a strong seal. The jam is packed and good to go.
Packing of jam at a right temperature is necessary to increase the shelf life of a product. If the jam is packed at a lower temperature, vacuum will not be formed leading to fungal growth.
5. The fifth step deals with avoiding a big mistake that jam makers at home commit quite often, and that is heating the glass jar after the jam is packed.
This can be a major reason for glass jar breakage, leakage and raises questions on the quality of glass jar.
There is absolutely no need to heat the glass jar after it is packed with jam.

Please ensure that these steps should work like an assemble line. For instance if you are alone, then also first wash, invert, fill and cap in one go taking one bottle at a time.

That’s all there is to it.
Simple, isn’t it?
