· 8 min read · By Bottles4You Team
## Choosing the Perfect PET Bottle for Your Juice Brand Starting a juice brand is exciting, but choosing the right bottle can make or break your product's success on the shelf. ### Why PET Plastic for Juice? PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) has become the industry standard for juice packaging: - **Crystal clarity** — glass-like transparency showcasing your juice's natural colors - **Lightweight** — 90% lighter than glass, reducing shipping costs - **Shatterproof** — No breakage risk during transport or in stores - **Food-safe** — Approved for food contact, BPA-free - **Recyclable** — #1 plastic, the most widely recycled type ### Key Factors to Consider #### 1. Size Matters - **10oz (296ml)** — Juice shots, wellness drinks, premium single-serve - **14.5-16oz (430-473ml)** — Sweet spot for cold-pressed juice - **500ml (16.9oz)** — Standard single-serve - **700ml (23.7oz)** — Large single-serve, meal replacement - **1L (33.8oz)** — Family size, value packaging #### 2. Neck Finish - **38mm Wide Mouth** — Best for thick juices, smoothies - **28mm Standard** — Works with most capping equipment #### 3. Shape & Shelf Presence - **Round** — Classic, versatile, efficient - **Square** — Premium feel, excellent label space - **Bullet/Tapered** — Modern, distinctive ### Our Recommendation For most startup juice brands, start with the **436ml Wide Mouth Juice Bottle**. Most popular size for cold-pressed juice with a 5,000-unit MOQ. [Contact us for a free sample →](/contact/)
