Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I choose between a manufacturer and a supplier?
A manufacturer (like Verescence or O-I) actually blows the glass. They are great for massive orders and custom molds. A supplier (like Kaufman or Berlin) acts as a bridge, offering stock bottles and adding decoration (printing/frosting). Suppliers are usually better for brands that need lower order quantities and more design help.
Can I get a 100% custom bottle shape in the USA?
Yes, but be prepared for the "mold fee." Custom glass molds usually cost between $10,000 and $30,000, and manufacturers typically require a minimum order of 20,000 to 50,000 units. If you aren't ready for that volume, "custom decoration" on a stock bottle is the better route.
What is the lead time for perfume bottles in the USA?
Lead times vary wildly. Stock bottles might ship in 1–2 weeks. However, custom-molded glass can take 6 months or more from design to delivery due to production schedules and mold testing.
