Existing Mold or Custom Mold — Choose the Right Path

Start with an existing bottle for faster development, or create a proprietary structure when shape, function and brand differentiation require custom tooling.

Option A — Existing Mold

  • Lower development cost
  • Faster route to samples
  • Proven bottle structures
  • Customization through color, closure and decoration

Option B — Custom Mold

  • Proprietary bottle shape
  • Structure developed around project requirements
  • Greater brand differentiation
  • Tooling and trial production before mass production

Custom Mold Development Path

01

Project brief

Application, capacity, material, quantity and target market.

02

Structure review

Shape, neck finish, closure and manufacturability.

03

DRAWING / 3D

Review dimensions and appearance before tooling.

04

TOOLING

Develop the mold according to the approved structure.

05

Trial sample

Inspect the trial bottle and component compatibility.

06

Decoration sample

Confirm color, logo and surface treatment.

07

Approval

Lock the approved project specification.

08

Mass production

Release production after written approval.

Our mold designers and engineers support feasibility review, 3D modeling and prototyping. Trial mold development from design to samples takes 31–45 days; mass-production mold manufacturing takes 31–35 days. The project schedule depends on design complexity and approvals. These are mold development periods, not finished-product delivery times. Explore our mold manufacturing center →
