The Advantages of Glass Packaging and Uses of Glass Vials

What’s classic, timeless, and beautiful to look at? Decent glass vials and containers. Whether it’s small glass vials, square containers or jars, there are tons of advantages to using glass packaging!

Let’s take a look at some of them:

Conserves the brilliance of the flavors:

One of the top advantages of packaging food and beverages in glass bottles is that there’s no need to worry about the products losing their flavor. Glass containers provide an outstanding barrier against outside influences; they keep the air out and preserve the products’ aroma, freshness and flavor.
Moreover, unlike plastics that can melt under extreme heat, the shape or material of glass vials aren’t affected by extreme temperature—this ensures that the products remain fresh at all times! Glass packaging provides exactly what food products need: long-term preservation of the product quality.

A Safer and healthier option

Glass is not only recyclable but it is also one of the safest materials that can be used for consumable products. It doesn’t require any material lining and is non-toxic. FDA has recognized glass packaging as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe), making it a widely-used food packaging material, and a great choice for beverage and food manufacturers.
Since glass is chemically inert, owing to its natural composition, this means that it isn’t made up of reactive chemicals. There’s a high barrier between the contents in the container and different external substances, meaning your product is less likely to be contaminated and remains fresh for longer.

Sustainable

Let’s not forget the environmental benefits of glass packaging; after all sustainable packaging and environmental consciousness is a big selling factor for tons of consumers.
Glass is 100% recyclable and can be recycled endlessly without loss in purity or quality—something only a few beverage and food packaging options can claim. Apart from its endless recycling life, glass vials also have fast recycling turnover times; a new glass container is ready to use within 30 days. Moreover, consumers can repurpose these glass bottles and containers for decorations and crafts.

Uses of Glass Vials

To many, glass containers have an impression of being boring old containers, which are widely used for medicinal uses. However, the function of these small bottles is manifold—all you need is a little imagination! Let’s look at some clever ways of using glass vials:

Perfume and essential oil bottles

The UV glass technology of the glass containers ensure that the fragrant substances within the bottles don’t oxidize or go stale. Additionally, the air tight and water tight seals prevent spillage. Premium Vials offers a wide range of cylinder and square glass bottles with screen labels, perfect for consumers’ on-the-go.

Contact lens solution bottles

Caring for contact lenses is a delicate job; you need to store your contact lens solution in an impenetrable container that protects it from foreign materials. That’s where euro dropper bottles come in! These bottles maintain the potency of the solution with dropper inserts and tamper-evident caps.

A more plausible alternative that we suggest is screen printing. Let’s take a look at some other benefits: Flexible design options From a branding perspective, you can use the entire bottle as a canvas and play to the max of your designing capabilities.
