As a manufacturer of glass bottles, we understand the importance of ensuring the safety and integrity of our products during storage and transportation. Whether you are a retailer, distributor or other manufacturer using our glass containers, adhering to proper handling practices is essential to prevent breakage, damage and potential hazards. In this blog post, we will share comprehensive guidelines based on our extensive experience and insights from participating in the Canton Fair this spring and fall, where we present our latest designs and gather feedback from industry professionals.
Temperature control:
Glass bottles are susceptible to thermal stress, which can lead to cracking or crushing. They must be stored in a temperature-controlled environment, preferably between 5°C and 25°C (41°F and 77°F). Avoid exposing them to direct sunlight or extreme temperature fluctuations.
Suitable stacking:
When stacking glass bottles, pallets suitable for heavy objects should be used and materials should be evenly distributed. Avoid piling too high so that the bottom bottle will crush due to its weight. Use protective layers such as cardboard or foam partitions between layers to reduce friction and impact.
Handle with care:
Be sure to handle the glass bottles carefully. Wear gloves to protect your hands from falling or hurting them. When handling large amounts of cargo, mechanical lifting equipment should be used to prevent personnel injury and minimize the risk of damage.
Safe packaging:
Ensure that each bottle is securely packed inside its main packaging (for example, cardboard box or plastic packaging) to prevent movement during transport. Use secondary packaging, such as foam or bubble wrap, to cushion the bottle and absorb shock.
Appropriate labels:
Clearly label all packaging with fragile labels and handling instructions. This reminds transporters to handle their cargo carefully to reduce the risk of damage.
