Thickened borosilicate glass, which handles thermal shock and survives long-haul freight far better than the thin-wall glass that dominates the low end of this category. The closure seals inverted, which is the only test that matters for something that travels in a bag.
Also on the buyer’s checklist here: lid, students, promotional, giveaways, custom decoration.
What that looks like on the bench: The closure seals under inversion, not merely closes. A carry handle or cord, so it travels attached rather than loose. The print carries the product on a crowded shelf, which is what a differentiated SKU has to do. The closure seals under inversion rather than merely closing, which is the only test that matters for something carried in a bag. The glass clarity shows the drink properly, which for tea and infused water is half the product.
Also on the buyer’s checklist here: lid, leaking, sealing, leak-proof when inverted, no paint flaking.
When we ask why they reordered, the answers cluster: the size lands with the widest slice of end users, which is what a retailer cares about more than any single feature; complaints are rare enough that the buyer stops budgeting for replacements; the entry quantity is low enough to trial without a warehouse full of stock; the complaint rate is low enough that they stopped budgeting for replacements. Reorders are the only honest measure in this business: a first order tells you the price was right, a third tells you the product was.
Also cited on repeat orders: appearance, students, acceptance, consistent at the end-user level, lid, sealing.
Buyers rarely arrive knowing which model they want — they arrive knowing the brief. This table is the fastest way to check whether TR-1041 is the right answer or whether a sibling fits better. The row highlighted is the one you are looking at. Every model listed runs from 500 pieces per design.

Every model above ships from 500 pieces per design. Mixing several of them in one container is normal — a 20ft container holds roughly 26 m³ of cartons, so a mixed load is planned on carton volume rather than on piece count. Send the full list at enquiry rather than model by model.
A supermarket chain in London orders this one regularly. It also goes through a retail chain.
Also on the buyer’s checklist here: promotional, giveaways, looks, restock, consistent retail.
Where it ends up: party favours and school-year gifts; promotional giveaways; staff welfare and corporate packs; gifting; event giveaways; school procurement. Each of those puts a different demand on the product, which is worth saying out loud when you brief us.
Also on the buyer’s checklist here: students, promotional, giveaways, event gifts, custom decoration, gifting.
One order that tested it: A buyer in Saudi Arabia across mixed colours timed to a seasonal peak. We ran the line on overtime and moved their batch up the queue, and we worked the freight booking through with them rather than handing it over at the gate. They have reordered 2 times. Worth knowing because it shows what the line can absorb when a date is genuinely fixed, rather than what we would promise on a quotation.
Also in play on that job: promotional, expedited, sea freight, reorder.
This model packs 50 per carton (35cm×28cm×40cm for the base size — the full carton table is in the spec above), and that number decides how many pieces fit a 20ft container far more than the FOB price does. What decides your landed cost here is the carton, not the unit price: ask for the container plan before you fix a retail price, because a wide-body jar fills a 20ft on volume long before it hits the weight limit. We quote EXW Yongkang, FOB Ningbo or Shanghai, or DDP door to door, and we will say which of the three costs you least given where you are rather than defaulting to whichever is easiest for us.
On TR-1041 the stock range is 3 colours (blue, pink, yellow), so a Pantone match is only worth the 1,000-piece run if none of those is close enough. Budget it as three lines, not one: decoration sits inside the unit price, a matched Pantone is its own spray run from 1,000 pieces, and packaging is separate with its own tooling and proofing round. Brands that budget these as a single number are the ones surprised at quotation: decoration sits in the unit price, a matched Pantone is a separate spray run from 1,000 pieces, and a printed colour box carries its own tooling and one proofing round. We sign an NDA before you share artwork, and a shape you tool for stays reserved to you — the same terms we have run with Hallmark since 2017 and with KRAUS for over ten years.
TR-1041 packs 50 per carton, so a 12-store drop lands on a clean carton multiple rather than a split case. Retail-ready means more than a colour box: UPC or EAN printed and scan-tested before the carton is sealed, carton marking to your own packaging manual, and inner counts that match what your DC expects. A barcode that fails at the till becomes a chargeback, and it is entirely preventable at our end: we print and scan-test every UPC or EAN before the carton is sealed. Ask for the retail packaging spec sheet with your first quote — it lists carton dimensions, inner counts and the UPC placement we scan-test before sealing.
TR-1041 is a single-capacity line, which is the fastest thing we can turn around when a date is already tight. Work backwards from the in-hands date, not forwards from the order date: 7–10 days for a pre-production sample, about 30 days production after approval, then 30–35 days sea freight to Europe or 25–30 to the US west coast. Production is 30 days after deposit and artwork approval, plus 7–10 days for a printed pre-production sample, plus sea freight — roughly 30–35 days to Europe, 25–30 to the US west coast. Late artwork is normal in this business; a date discovered late is not survivable — artwork approval is what starts the 30-day production clock, not the deposit. Tell us the date at enquiry and we will say honestly whether it is achievable.
TR-1041 ships in a 35 cm × 28 cm × 40 cm carton — send us your FBA plan and we will confirm whether that splits cleanly under the dimension cap before you book. FNSKU labels, Prop 65 and suffocation warnings applied here, cartons built to FBA dimension limits, and we can split a shipment across fulfilment centres if you send the plan. Doing it at the factory removes a prep-centre handling fee and about a week of transit on every restock. Watch dimensional weight on this category — the carton is light for its size, so FBA usually bills on volume.
These are the failures buyers describe when they explain why they are switching. None of them are exotic — they are what gets cut when a quote has to come in lower.
The most common complaint we inherit: a container that seeps into a bag once is never bought again. Ask any supplier to run an inverted seal test with liquid in it, not just show you the gasket.
Cheap outer paint scratches through within weeks and the product looks second-hand on a shelf long before it stops working.
Thin-wall glass arrives cracked, and breakage on long-haul shipping is what decides whether a glass programme is profitable at all. We use thickened borosilicate for exactly this reason.
Eight workshops in Yongkang, Zhejiang, running since 1998 — mould development, vacuum welding, injection moulding, spray painting, laser marking, printing, assembly, inspection and packing, all in one building. For TR-1041 the stage worth watching is glass forming and controlled annealing.
Glass is the category where the step you cannot see decides your loss rate. After forming, every body goes through a controlled annealing cycle, cooled slowly so internal stress comes out. Shorten it and the glass looks identical, passes a drop test, then cracks somewhere between Ningbo and your warehouse. That is why we specify thickened borosilicate rather than soda-lime, and why we ask about the sea leg before quoting inner packaging. Decoration runs on our own lines: laser etching frosts the glass wall itself so the mark cannot lift, screen print for flat colour, UV digital for photographic artwork.
We inspect 8% of every batch rather than a fixed sample per shipment. Buyers are welcome on site — eight workshops in Yongkang, Zhejiang, running since 1998, about three hours by road from Ningbo port and two from Hangzhou airport, which makes a factory visit a realistic side trip rather than a separate journey. Ask to see that bench specifically; it is where the difference shows — we check vacuum integrity on 100% of bodies at the semi-finished stage, before assembly and coating, because a micro-leak is undetectable once the jar is built.
Importers & wholesalers — A good fit — this one already ships in mixed-colour containers for buyers testing which colours move. Stock colours are blue, pink, yellow, and 500 pieces per design gets you started rather than 5,000.
Brand owners & private label — Yes. Three separate lines to budget: the logo sits in the unit price, a matched Pantone is its own run at 1,000 pieces, and packaging is third — this model ships in a plain white box as standard, and anything else is a separate tooling and proofing round.
Retail chains — Currently on shelves through buyers in this channel. Retail-ready colour boxes, printed UPC or EAN, and we scan-test the barcode before the carton is sealed.
Promotional & gifting — One of the stronger uses for this model. Give us the in-hands date at enquiry rather than after artwork approval — we work backwards from it and tell you honestly whether it is achievable.
End users & institutions — Suited to schools and campus retail. For institutional buying, specify laser engraving rather than print — a printed logo on a coated body typically fades within one season of daily commercial dishwashing, while an engraved mark is cut into the 304 steel and does not.
Not the right pick if… — you need food to stay hot for hours. This model is not vacuum insulated — it is a container, not a flask. Look at our vacuum range instead and we will point you at the closest equivalent.
This one runs 300 ml, and it is the one with. End users are students and school lunches, supermarket retail, gifting programmes, promotional giveaways. The other models in this range answer different briefs. Describe the end use and we will tell you which one actually fits.
No — borosilicate handles thermal shock far better than ordinary soda-lime glass, which is exactly why we use it rather than the cheaper alternative. It is also why this survives long-haul freight at a loss rate a glass programme can live with. What it will not survive is a direct flame or a drop onto tile; glass is glass.
Stock colours are blue, pink, yellow — those run from 500 pieces per design. A matched Pantone is a separate spray or resin run and starts at 1,000 pieces. Mixed-colour containers are normal here: several buyers deliberately split a container across colours to see which ones move before committing to one.
Silk screen handles one to three flats; anything photographic goes UV digital. What glass will not take is laser engraving, which is a steel process. Where the body is flat rather than curved, artwork lands closer to how it was drawn — worth knowing when you choose between models in this range.
Entry quantity is 500 per design. Custom Pantone doubles that to 1,000, since the colour is a separate spray or resin run rather than a stock item. Production runs 30 days after deposit and artwork approval, sample in 7–10 days. Packing is 50 pcs per carton at 35cm × 28cm × 40cm. Terms are EXW, FOB Ningbo / Shanghai or DDP door to door — whichever suits how you already import.
