Screen printing on bottles
– Advantages, disadvantages and a comparison to digital printing

Anyone looking to have glass bottles or water bottles printed will, sooner or later, face an important decision: should the design be produced using screen printing or digital printing?

Both methods have their merits and produce high-quality results. Nevertheless, they differ significantly in terms of durability, colour effect, cost-effectiveness and design options.

Printing technology plays a key role, particularly when it comes to reusable bottles. The bottles are used, transported and cleaned on a regular basis. The print must therefore retain its high-quality appearance over time and reliably represent the brand.

In this article, we explain how screen printing works, what the advantages and disadvantages of the process are, and when digital printing might be the better choice.

What is screen printing?

Screen printing is one of the most tried-and-tested printing methods for glass bottles, water bottles and packaging. In this process, the ink is transferred directly onto the surface of the bottle using a fine-mesh fabric – known as a screen.

A separate screen is created for each ink. This allows the inks to be applied with great precision and high opacity.
Screen printing is particularly suitable for:
Company logos
Lettering
Pictograms
QR-Codes
Graphic elements
Solid colour areas
Screen printing has been an established standard for decades, particularly for glass bottles, as the process delivers high colour vibrancy and excellent durability.

Why screen printing is commonly used for bottles

When it comes to printing on bottles, there are usually three key requirements:
High durability
Exact brand colours
Cost-effective production
This is precisely where screen printing really comes into its own. It is one of the most popular finishing techniques, particularly for glass bottles featuring a company logo or catering bottles with permanent branding.
Printing directly onto the surface creates a high-quality finish that looks significantly more durable than adhesive labels.
Would you like more information on print data?
We have summarised all relevant information for you in a clear and concise manner.

What colours are used in screen printing?

Different colour systems are used depending on the requirements.

Ceramic paints

Ceramic inks are fired onto the glass after printing, forming a permanent bond with the glass surface.
Advantages:
– maximum durability
– excellent dishwasher resistance
– ideal for reusable bottles
– excellent scratch resistance
Typical applications:
– catering
– hospitality
– mineral water bottles
– durable branded bottles

UV inks

UV inks are cured using UV light.
Advantages:
– high flexibility
– fast production
– cost-effective implementation for many applications
Typical applications:
– promotional bottles
– promotional items
– small and medium print runs

The benefits of screen printing on bottles

Durability
One of the major advantages of screen printing is its durability.
Printed bottles are regularly washed, transported, handled and reused.
Particularly with fired ceramic inks, the print remains intact even after many wash cycles.
Exact Pantone colours
For many companies, maintaining their corporate identity is crucial.
Screen printing allows for the highly precise reproduction of Pantone colours and defined corporate colours.
This ensures that logos and brand colours appear particularly consistent across different batches of bottles.
High colour brilliance
Screen printing produces rich, opaque colours with a high-quality finish.
This produces particularly elegant results on glass surfaces.
Logos appear crisp, high-contrast and professional.
Cost-effective for larger print quantities
Setting up the printing process involves some initial effort.
However, as print runs increase, this cost is spread across a large number of products.
As a result, screen printing is often more cost-effective than digital printing, particularly for medium and large print runs.
Premium feel
Depending on the pressure applied, a slightly textured surface is created.
This added quality is particularly appreciated in high-quality glass bottles.
Wide range of materials
Screen printing is suitable for a wide range of materials and surfaces. In addition to glass bottles, it can also be used to print on drinking bottles made of Tritan, plastic or metal.

This makes it possible to implement consistent designs across different product ranges.

Are there any disadvantages to screen printing?

Despite its many advantages, screen printing is not the best solution for every project.

Photorealistic images are only possible to a limited extent

Complex images with many subtle shades or soft colour gradients are usually easier to reproduce using digital printing.

Customisation is more labour-intensive

If each bottle is to be given a different name or number, digital printing is usually the more flexible option.

Having lots of colours adds to the workload

As a separate screen is required for each colour, the effort and costs increase as the number of colours rises.

How durable is screen printing on glass bottles?

This is a question we are asked very frequently.
The durability depends on various factors:
– the printing system used
– the bottle material
– frequency of use
– cleaning methods
Ceramic screen printing, in particular, is considered one of the most durable finishing methods for glass bottles.
That is why it has been used for many years on beverage bottles, returnable packaging systems and high-quality branded packaging.

What is digital printing on bottles?

With digital printing, the design is transferred directly onto the bottle from a digital file.
Unlike screen printing, there is no need to create screens.
This makes the process particularly suitable for:
– small print runs
– personalised bottles
– photographic designs
– colour gradients
– illustrations

When is screen printing the best option?

Screen printing is particularly recommended when:
– a company logo is to be printed
– corporate design colours must be matched exactly
– large quantities are being produced
– a long-lasting finish is required
– the bottles are to be used over the long term
Typical examples:
– Staff bottles
– Conference bottles
– Catering bottles
– Hotel water bottles
– Club bottles
– Promotional items featuring a company logo

When is digital printing the best option?

Digital printing is particularly suitable when:
– photographic images are used
– colour gradients are required
– small print runs are planned
– each bottle is to be customised
– creative campaign designs are to be produced
Typical examples:
– event bottles
– onboarding gifts
– limited editions
– personalised water bottles

Our recommendation based on practical experience
As specialists in the finishing of glass and plastic bottles, we handle numerous printing projects across a wide range of industries every year.

In practice, we opt for screen printing for the majority of our standard bottle projects. The reason is simple: hardly any other process combines colour vibrancy, Pantone accuracy, durability and cost-effectiveness so convincingly.

Screen printing is often the most technically sound solution, particularly for glass bottles featuring a company logo, bottles for the catering industry, or returnable bottles in a corporate design.

Digital printing really comes into its own when customisation, small print runs or particularly creative designs are required.

FAQ on screen printing

Is screen printing dishwasher-safe?

Yes. Ceramic screen printing, in particular, offers excellent resistance to frequent washing.

Conclusion
Screen printing is one of the most important printing processes for glass and plastic bottles, and with good reason. The process offers impressive durability, precise colour reproduction, a strong brand impact and cost-effectiveness for larger print runs.

Digital printing, on the other hand, offers advantages for small runs, photorealistic designs and personalised designs.
Which technique is the right one ultimately depends on the design, print run, budget and intended use. However, for classic company logos and durable reusable bottles, screen printing is often the first choice.

A spectacular start for new trainees

Creative gifts for a great start

For many trainees, the first day of training is a mixture of excitement, nervousness and the faint hope that they’ll be able to remember everyone’s names straight away.

With creative and well-thought-out welcome gifts, companies show their appreciation from day one and create a positive start to working life. At the same time, high-quality and sustainable gifts for employees strengthen their sense of belonging to the company and ensure that new trainees feel welcome straight away.

Why a good start to an apprenticeship is so important today

Starting an apprenticeship is more than just a new job. New procedures, new colleagues, new responsibilities – and sometimes your first encounter with the legendary “Could you just…?”.

This makes a professional and warm onboarding process all the more important. Companies that create a welcoming atmosphere from day one build trust and foster loyalty to the training organisation right from the start.

A well-thought-out welcome pack conveys:
Appreciation
Attention
Corporate culture
and, best case scenario, a little smile too

Personalised water bottles – practical, sustainable and used every day

Personalised water bottles featuring a logo are a particularly popular gift idea for the start of a training programme. They combine practicality with a high-quality brand image and are a perfect fit for modern companies.

Whether in the office, at vocational college or on the go, personalised water bottles accompany apprentices every day whilst also ensuring a visible brand presence. High-quality glass bottles or durable water bottles come across as significantly more sustainable and of higher quality than traditional promotional items.

And let’s be honest: a high-quality water bottle is usually better received than yet another USB stick from the promotional items drawer.

They also embody key corporate values such as:
Sustainability
Commitment to quality
Modern employer branding

Which gifts are a real hit with apprentices

These days, there is a particular demand for practical, high-quality products that are actually used in everyday life – and that is precisely why water bottles are a top priority for many companies.

Because let’s be honest: you can always use a good-quality water bottle. Whether at the office, at vocational college, on the way to work or at the gym – it often accompanies apprentices throughout the day. It is precisely this practicality that makes it a particularly popular welcome gift.

Furthermore, younger generations today are paying greater attention to sustainability and conscious consumption. Reusable water bottles fit perfectly with this zeitgeist whilst also projecting a modern corporate image.

Personalised solutions are particularly well received, for example those featuring a company logo, a bespoke design or high-quality finishes. This results not only in a practical everyday companion, but also in a product with high brand recognition.

A small gesture with a big impact

Welcome gifts don’t have to be overly large or particularly extravagant. It is often the small, well-thought-out details that leave a lasting positive impression.

A personal welcome letter, a thoughtfully put-together starter pack or practical everyday essentials show new trainees:
“We’re glad you’re here.”

It is exactly this form of appreciation that is becoming increasingly important in recruitment and employee retention. High-quality, sustainable employee gifts help companies to present themselves as modern, attentive and personable.
Conclusion: First impressions count
A successful start to an apprenticeship doesn’t begin with induction; it starts right from the moment the trainee is welcomed on their first day. Creative welcome gifts help companies to welcome new apprentices, bring the corporate culture to life and build a positive connection right from the start.

Personalised and sustainable products such as water bottles offer real added value; they are practical for everyday use, make a high-quality impression and leave a lasting impact. In this way, a small gift can quickly create a positive first impression.

Custom design water bottles
– Schritt für Schritt zur individuellen Lösung

Customised water bottles are an effective way to raise brand awareness, streamline processes and provide a practical benefit at the same time. Whether for the catering and hospitality industries, events or as a staff gift, we offer businesses a solution that allows them to design water bottles efficiently and to their exact specifications.

And yes: in the end, you don’t just end up with a bottle, but ideally a product that doesn’t ‘accidentally’ disappear from the office after two days.

‘If water bottles could talk, they’d probably say: “Please, not another run-of-the-mill one.”’
Customised water bottles are more than just everyday items. They promote brands, build brand recognition and remain a constant presence in people’s daily lives. That is precisely why it is worth moving away from standard designs and focusing instead on customisation – tailored to the intended use, the target audience and the brand identity.

Defining the right basis:

1. Choose a bottle

The first step is choosing the right bottle. Requirements regarding material, appearance and function vary depending on the intended use.

Select by material
Glass bottles
→ high quality, durable and neutral in taste
→ ideal for the catering and hospitality industries and for use in businesses

Tritan bottles
→ lightweight, shatterproof and versatile
→ ideal for events, sports or on-the-go use

Select by intended use
Catering & Hospitality
→ Focus on design, reusability and brand impact

Events & Functions
→ Sturdy, lightweight bottles in large quantities (e.g. for promotional purposes or large-scale events)

Staff & Customers
→ personalised solutions featuring individual names or bespoke designs

The combination of materials and intended use ensures that the bottles not only look great, but also perform well in everyday use.
Or to express it differently: Even the most beautiful bottle is of little use if it isn’t suitable for the job.

2. Customise water bottles

Now we’re getting down to business: the design.

Our configurator is designed so that all customizations are directly visible. No guesswork, no “we’ll send you a design in 3 days”.

Your options:
→ Add text to the bottle (e.g. company name or slogan)
→ Upload logos or your own graphics
→ Use and customise design templates
→ Combine different elements

All changes are displayed immediately. This means that what you see is very close to what will eventually be produced.
And, incidentally, this also prevents internal discussions such as:
“I thought the logo was bigger.”

3. Choose a closure

As well as the bottle itself, the cap also plays a role in ensuring that the overall look is both functional and visually appealing.

Your options:
→ Screw cap
→ Swing cap

Just like our bottles, the caps can also be further personalised with your logo, your employees’ names or short messages.

A small detail with a big impact – especially when there are several versions in circulation and no one has to guess which bottle belongs to whom.

4. Full transparency on prices

Something that’s often underestimated in practice: the price. Throughout the design process for your water bottles, the price for your chosen quantity and configuration will be displayed in real time.

That means: no surprises at the end and no “We were actually expecting something different”.
This saves time, particularly in the B2B field, and experience shows that it also cuts down on a number of coordination loops.

5. Efficiently implementing individual names– ideal for employee solutions

Personalised bottles with individual names are particularly popular: for example, as staff gifts or for internal use.

To ensure this doesn’t end up as tedious manual work, the process has been deliberately kept simple:

→ Upload a CSV or Excel file with the desired names
→ Automated processing
→ Full implementation by us

In practical terms, this means: no manual entry of individual names and no endless copy-and-paste sessions.
Are you still looking for inspiration for staff gifts?

6. Direkt bestellen oder unverbindlich anfragen

Once the configuration is complete, there are two options:

Order directly online
→ Your order will be processed immediately
→ All details will be checked again before production begins

Request a no-obligation quote
→ useful if you’re unsure or need to discuss your requirements
→ personalised feedback from our team

This allows the process to be flexibly adapted to internal workflows, whether it involves a quick decision or multiple approval stages.

Conclusion: Design water bottles without any unnecessary hassle

For us, designing water bottles isn’t a complex, specialised process, but a clearly structured one that can be implemented straight away.

Companies benefit from:
→ comprehensive customisation options
→ a transparent pricing structure
→ scalable solutions
→ efficient implementation – even for personalised one-off items

And the end result is a product that not only looks good, but is actually used in everyday life.
Which – to be honest – is still the best measure of quality.

Spring, events and a great atmosphere

Why glass bottles are more effective at events

With the first warm days, one thing happens naturally: people are drawn outside. Terraces open, events are planned, and suddenly it’s event season again.

For many companies, restaurants and event organisers, spring marks the start of numerous events – from company parties and spring markets to Easter celebrations.

And anyone who has ever organised an event knows that
success often lies in the details.
No matter how beautiful the location may be, if the little things aren’t right, sometimes that certain something is missing. This is exactly where our customised glass bottles for events come into play.

When events move back outdoors

Der Frühling ist die perfekte Zeit für Veranstaltungen aller Art. Endlich wieder frische Luft, längere Abende und – mit etwas Glück – Sonne statt Winterjacke.
Typische Events im Frühling sind zum Beispiel:
Corporate events
Spring fairs and town festivals
Open-air events and sport competitions
Catering events on terraces or in beer gardens
Seasonal events during Easter
Easter in particular is a wonderful occasion for many businesses to hold special events – from Easter brunches to spring festivals. And let’s be honest: everyone could do with a little spring after winter.

Charming branding at events

Events are a great opportunity to bring a brand to life. However, the same principle applies here: nobody wants to feel as though they’re standing on a billboard at an event. That’s precisely why subtle brand ambassadors work particularly well.

Individually refined glass bottles with logos are present without being obtrusive and offer numerous possible uses:
Water bottles on tables or buffets
Part of event packages for participants
Giveaways for guests
Drinks for catering

Sustainability at events

Another issue that is becoming increasingly important at events is sustainability.

Many organisers are now thinking more carefully about which materials and products to use. Disposable packaging and short-lived promotional items often no longer fit in with the standards of modern events.

Glass bottles are an obvious solution here:
reusable
durable
high-quality
classic
Two differently printed glass bottles lie on a blanket in a picnic basket next to a green and a red apple.

Small details that guests notice

At events, a lot of time is often invested in major aspects: stage, catering, music, decoration. This is entirely understandable.

But it is often the little things that really catch guests’ attention.
For example, the bottle on the table.

A customised glass bottle immediately appears more sophisticated than a standard bottle from a wholesaler. It blends into the overall image of the event and also ensures that the organiser’s logo or design is visible.

And yes – a beautiful bottle can actually spark conversation.
‘They look great – where are they from?’ is something you hear more often than you might think.

Find more inspiration here:
Conclusion: Spring is the season for events
When temperatures start to climb, so does the desire to attend events. Spring brings people together – at company parties, gastronomic events, markets or events surrounding Easter.

And it is precisely on such occasions that the strengths of well-thought-out details become apparent.
Individually designed glass bottles combine functionality, sustainability and brand presence – and blend naturally into the overall picture of an event.

Or, to put it in other words: sometimes a successful event simply starts with a glass of water.

The best choice for hot drinks during the cold season – heat-resistant, durable and resistant

Borosilicate glass bottles

The days are getting shorter, temperatures are dropping and autumn is gradually arriving. With the cooler months, the desire for warm drinks increases again: whether hot tea, flavoured coffee or a spicy chai latte – they are now our constant companions. During this time, choosing the right drinking bottle plays a decisive role.
A borosilicate glass bottle is the ideal solution here, as it not only keeps your drink at the perfect temperature, but also impresses with its durability and environmental protection. But that’s not all – discover now why borosilicate glass bottles will be your best friend, especially in the cold season!

What is borosilicate glass?

Borosilicate glass is a special type of glass that is characterised by its high heat resistance and chemical resilience. Compared to standard commercial glass (soda-lime glass), borosilicate glass has a crystalline structure, which gives it increased stability at a lower weight. This special composition makes it less susceptible to temperature fluctuations and mechanical stress.

The advantages of borosilicate glass bottles

Borosilicate glass bottles offer a number of decisive advantages over other materials such as plastic, stainless steel or conventional glass:
High heat resistance
A major advantage of borosilicate glass is its heat resistance. Unlike conventional glass, it can withstand sudden changes in temperature and is suitable for both hot and cold drinks without cracking. Ideal for people looking for a versatile and robust bottle.
Environmentally friendly and sustainable
Borosilicate glass is completely recyclable and contains no harmful substances. Many people consciously choose glass bottles in order to reduce plastic consumption and contribute to environmental protection. A long-lasting borosilicate bottle replaces countless single-use plastic bottles and thus significantly reduces the environmental impact.
Flavour-neutral and hygienic
Borosilicate glass does not absorb odours or flavours. Unlike plastic bottles, which can develop unpleasant odours after a certain time, borosilicate glass remains neutral in taste. This means that both fresh lemon juice and tea always taste as they should. The material is also easy to clean, which makes it more hygienic.
Highly break-resistant
Thanks to its special composition, borosilicate glass is more resistant to mechanical stress than ordinary glass. Nevertheless, glass remains more sensitive than plastic or stainless steel. It is therefore advisable to use the bottles with a protective sleeve made of silicone or neoprene to protect them from knocks and scratches.

Heat resistance: more than just an advertising promise

A common reason why many customers choose borosilicate glass bottles is their heat resistance. Whether boiling hot tea or cold water – the bottles can withstand extreme temperatures without any problems. This property is particularly important if the bottles are to be used regularly for hot drinks. Conventional glass could crack at such high temperatures, whereas borosilicate glass distributes the heat evenly and withstands temperature fluctuations without damage.

The bottles are designed to withstand temperature fluctuations from -20°C to +150°C. This means that they can be safely cleaned in the dishwasher or stored in the fridge without having to worry about possible damage.
Glasflaschen mit Sleeves auf einem Baumstamm

Protection against damage – why a sleeve makes sense:

Shock protection: a well-padded sleeve made of silicone, neoprene or fabric acts like a protective cover and absorbs minor impacts that could otherwise lead to scratches or cracks in the glass.

Improved grip: A sleeve provides additional grip and prevents the bottle from slipping out of your hands, which is particularly helpful during strenuous activities such as sports or outdoor adventures.

Heat and cold protection: Some sleeves also have an insulating effect and help to keep the temperature of your drinks stable for longer – hot drinks stay warm, cold drinks stay refreshingly cool.

Individuality and style: In addition to the practical benefits, a stylish sleeve also provides an appealing look and gives your bottle a personal touch.
To summarise: borosilicate glass bottles are the perfect everyday companion
Borosilicate glass bottles combine many advantages: they are hygienic, environmentally friendly, neutral in flavour and extremely heat-resistant. If you are looking for durable and versatile drinking bottles for employees, guests or customers, a borosilicate glass bottle is the perfect choice. In combination with a protective sleeve, the bottle becomes a robust companion for all occasions – whether for a morning coffee or a refreshing drink after a workout.

Now is the time to find the right borosilicate glass bottle for you. Discover our borosilicate glass models in the 0.5 or 1 litre version as well as our wavelength with a capacity of 0.5 or 0.75 litres.

Inspired by the beautiful Rennsteig region in the Franconian Forest, we want to celebrate the passion for hiking and the beauty of nature with this design.
The Rennsteig is one of the most famous hiking trails in Germany and is a popular destination for nature lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. Every year, the region attracts numerous visitors with its breathtaking landscapes and diverse hiking opportunities. We were inspired by this fascination and developed the design of the Wanderer drinking bottle to combine this enthusiasm in a unique product.

This image reminds us how important it is to spend time in nature, to put on our hiking boots and discover new paths.
The Wanderer drinking bottle will be available exclusively during the Rennsteig trade fair in Teuschnitz. So if you are there, you should definitely secure your copy, because the number of pieces is limited! The bottle is not only a practical companion for your hikes, but also a memento of the fascinating Rennsteig region.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Rennsteig Fair in Teuschnitz and presenting our hikers’ drinking bottle to you in person.
