Soy sauce bottle vinegar bottle packaging market development trend

Soy sauce and vinegar can be regarded as representatives of liquid seasonings. There are many kinds of seasonings such as cooking wine and seasoning oil. In the planned economy, glass bottles were once packaged with soy sauce and vinegar. It can be said that liquid condiments are still one of the last few positions in glass containers. Glass bottles do have their advantages: transparency, good barrier properties, low price, and ease of reuse.

In recent years, the situation has undergone great changes. The pattern of dominating the glass bottles has been broken. Plastic bags, PET bottles, and sunken buckets have entered the liquid condiment market one after another.

PET bottles are similar in size and capacity to glass bottles, but they are lighter and have better gloss than glass bottles, and have caps that can be used repeatedly. PE buckets have a large capacity and are suitable for occasions where consumption is relatively fast. The fit is also very good.

Although the glass bottle packaging still occupies a dominant position, it is worth mentioning that in the past, the single crown cap closure style on glass bottles has changed. It can be said that the imperfection of the crown cap is the fatal weakness of the glass bottle packaging. Many glass bottles have now been improved in terms of caps, and plastic caps have been used to facilitate their use. Some manufacturers also have a plastic benefit bottle hanging in the crown cap glass, so that after opening the crown cap can be replaced with this plastic cap repeatedly.

Small-capacity liquid seasonings such as mustard oil, chili oil and certain high-grade raw soy sauces are still mainly used for glass bottles. However, all plastic caps have been used. There is no ideal alternative packaging for this market.

Glass bottles still dominate the packaging field.
