Line overview

One protected route for glass bottled water.

Plan the complete line around the actual bottle drawing, closure, water specification and required output. Each handoff is designed to limit glass contact while keeping the filler and downstream equipment balanced.

FAQ

Glass-line decisions, clarified.

Early technical questions are collected here so the main production route stays easy to follow.

How is glass-bottle line output selected?

Start with the required saleable bottles per shift, bottle volume and available production hours. Then allow for cleaning, format changes, planned stops and realistic line efficiency before the filler and downstream equipment are selected.

Can the line handle returnable glass bottles?

Yes, but returnable bottles require a different upstream route, normally including crate handling, bottle washing and inspection. The current concept shows the empty-bottle depalletizing route and must be adapted when returnable bottles are confirmed.

Which closure types can be used?

Crown caps and aluminium closures are common options. The bottle neck drawing, closure sample, required seal and opening experience must be reviewed before the closing machine is specified.

Should we use case packing or film wrapping?

Glass bottles usually need more protection than PET. Cartons or cases, with dividers where required, are typically reviewed first. A film route should only be selected after bottle stability, contact and transport tests are confirmed.

How is water treatment determined?

Use a source-water laboratory report, the target finished-water profile and local regulations. These inputs define filtration, membrane, disinfection, storage and cleaning requirements.
