Glass bottles and jars for dairy products

The non alcoholic bottle anatomy

Shaping performance, from filling line to first sip

Discover a comprehensive range of glass bottles designed to meet the specific needs of non‑alcoholic beverage producers. From understanding bottle anatomy — including finishes, necks, bodies, heels, and bases — to selecting the optimal combination of shape, size, colour, and closure, Vetropack ensures the right fit between beverage, packaging, and filling line. 

Choose narrow‑neck bottles for sparkling waters, soft drinks, iced teas, and functional beverages, or wide‑neck formats for juices with pulp, smoothies, syrups, and dairy drinks. Formats range from convenient single‑serve bottles to family and horeca sizes, aligned with consumption occasions, logistics efficiency, and consumer habits. Flint glass maximizes product visibility and trust, while green, blue, and specialty colours provide UV protection and premium differentiation. To complete the solution, Vetropack offers closures engineered for freshness, safety, and performance — including crown caps, ROPP screw caps, swing‑top closures, corks, and decorative capsules — ensuring optimal sealing, carbonation retention, and consumer convenience.

Colour that performs (and sells)

At Vetropack, clear (flint) glass is the preferred choice for non-alcoholic beverage packaging across Europe, showcasing your product’s freshness and vibrant colour to build immediate consumer trust. European customers value clear glass for its purity and quality, making it the ideal solution for juices, waters, and soft drinks.

For brands seeking extra UV protection or a distinctive look, we offer coloured glass options like green and blue. Bring your brand vision to life with our feeder-coloured glass—enjoy flexible batch sizes, faster turnaround, and custom shades designed to make an impact.
