Emotional connections drive consumer behavior. The most successful brands are able to create an experience their consumers can share, carving out a unique identity and spark to stand out on shelves.
Increase packaging effectiveness and build stronger brands with iconic glass bottles and jars that set brands apart. With O-I’s glass bottle design capabilities, packaging can be just as unique as the product it protects. The glass bottle shape, size, color, and 3D embossing come together to create an emotional impact on consumers. With one-of-a-kind glass bottle design, brands are easily recognizable, even without a label.
This unique glass bottle has curved edges throughout and is off-center to mimic the shape of an agave pineapple – a key ingredient in this tequila. The bottle design came to life through creative thinking, collaboration across teams, and innovative engineering techniques.
This bottle is more than protective glass packaging – it’s a work of art – demonstrating how brilliantly glass brings brand stories to life to illuminate a brand’s image. The glass bottle has an intricate, crocodile-skin design for an attention-grabbing, one-of-a-kind design.
Jacobite launched this rum in a glass bottle from O-I’s Contemporary Collection, showing glass packaging can be both sustainable and elegant. The result was a bottle that tells the brand’s story while supporting their sustainability journey.
This project – replicating the artwork of Hugo Guiness on a glass bottle – utilizes flat print, embossed elements, multiple colors, different transparency levels, full height of container print, and a premium bottle shape.
This glass wine bottle embodies key defining features of O-I: EXPRESSIONS – flat print, embossed elements, multiple colors, and a premium bottle shape. It features a 360° digitally printed design and is worthy to be any dinner party centerpiece.
O-I developed the diamond-shaped glass bottle for Knorr for their fish sauce in Vietnamese markets. Since fish sauce is widely used throughout the country, standing out on shelves in a unique bottle was essential.
Leverage neuroscience to develop the most impactful glass packaging design for your brand: Our partners at Brand Aviators have created the Wheel of MotivesTM, which is groundbreaking work that connects deep human motives with shopping behavior and brand choice.
We leverage that framework to align brands with their motives and translate this into the right packaging design cues to create emotional connections. This means brands can focus on the messaging that resonates more clearly and effectively with shoppers.
The Straight Wall is an evolution of modern glass bottling. The design features a perfectly symmetrical body with a wide opening, proposing a perfectly balanced experience to bring the consumer closer to the product. This balance gently draws the eye up from the label to the mouth of the bottle.
A revolutionary beer bottle design, the Misfit pushes all boundaries. Featuring an asymmetrical shoulder, unique label positioning and opposing angles, the design rejects traditional profiles. These elements perpetuate a defiant motive with a striking shelf presence sure to differentiate from the ordinary.
Based on a classic shape, the Shoulder is designed to bring a sense of security in familiarity. The repetition of cylindrical forms creates a sense of symmetry and peace that one can trust and rely on. On the shelf, the shoulder stands out with its elevated presence and reassuring stance.
A wide mouth opens the consumer to a balanced, full-sensory experience of the product, inviting aromas and mouthfeel to balance flavor.

Glass bottle packaging is more than about functionally protecting food and beverages. Glass is a transformative packaging material that plays with the senses of sight, sound and touch to connect with consumers in ways other packaging materials simply can’t. Plus, glass bottles are inert and leave products as pure as the producer intended.
We’re more simply glass manufacturers: we’re designers; we’re market analysts; we’re brand partners and problem solvers. We do it all.
When you partner with O-I Glass, you unleash the transformative power of glass packaging with long-time leading experts in brand-building, design, and manufacturing. If you want brand-building glass bottle packaging that disrupts the shelf, connects with consumers, and drives brand loyalty, our teams at O-I Glass are the experts at unlocking the power of glass packaging.
The reasons are endless. You can unleash your brand’s potential through glass. Glass is the ideal material to transform a brand story and connect with consumers. Glass creates packaging so iconic; brands are recognizable even without a label. Even more, glass is the most sustainable packaging option available. It’s virtually inert, meaning it won’t interact with the product inside. Glass is also the healthiest packaging option – it doesn’t allow for any chemicals to leach into the food and beverages packaged inside.
Consumers take 3-7 seconds, on average, to make a purchasing decision, so it’s vital to stand out on the shelf and make an immediate impact. Glass packaging from O-I allows brands to do that. With glass packaging, you can turn it into shapes, give it colors, and play with its transparency. Glass is a premium packaging material able to transform occasions – just imagine the “clink” that happens between 2 bottles in celebration. Glass is also the healthiest packaging option – it doesn’t allow for any chemicals to seek into the food and beverages packaged inside.
Yes! O-I’s designers will collaborate with design agencies that brands already have a working relationship with.
