  1. The ones I know are: Universal Specialties in BC Canada Seriegraphie Richford in Montreal Canada Stanpak in On, Canada Hanes Erie in PA Buffalo Circuits in NY Etched images in CA The others are either not worth considering or I don't know them. Good luck, Frank
  2. Coop. Send me your email so that I can send you the drawing, my upload limit has been reached on the ADI Price is 0.78$ per bottle Fob Montreal on bulk pallets of 1421. Thanks, Frank
  3. Hi Don, Glass costs 0.78$ Fob Montreal one pallet contains 1421 bottles bulk. Cases are possible but the costs have not been studied yet! Cheers, Frank
  4. Hi, After some positive responses from the market (thank you for your replies) we have decided to invest in a new private mold for all you whiskey and rum bottles out there. It is a generic European looking whiskey bottle with a bartop finish. The bottle will be available at very competitive prices at the end of the year. As we are bringing in 1 truckload, please indicate your volumes if you are interested in this glass. I can send you a technical drawing for your review. Cheers, Frank 450-622 1600 ext 235
  5. I definately agree with this! I urge the craftdistiller to think outside the box. I mean you are using perhaps a few pallets of glass per year, why not make the best out of it instead of going the safe route. Lets take Saver glass, beautiful glass, expensive looking, high end and top of the line. Neverthless, I have found 15 distillers using the Oslo, 14 using the Ariane, 7 using the Neos. My personal view is that if you go safe you will not stand out, therefore will not book huge sales even if your product is outstanding. Some have great ideas of decorating a simple looking bottle into a work of art, using low cost additions to embelish the glass (wax, silkscreen, frosting, bartops). What we need is a 'refreshment' in the glass industry, whether personalized molds or changes in design such as www.selective-line.com offers. Imagine: a bottle that looks like it is made out of wood, or velvet (...) or looks like an old metal object. All is possible nowadays and believe me it will write itself off, because your sales will go up. I might toot my own horn, but you will see that the packaging experts, whether us or other distributors, can really help you get the edge.
  6. Check it out, our company was mentioned in Packworld. We contributed to the success of the Modern Spirits packaging. Check out 'my link' and Happy reading! This bottle is sold for 1.20$ and can be supplied in cases (16.90$ per case of 12) On stock now! My link
  7. Paul, It is maybe after the fact, we are distributing for Selectiveline.com. If you guys want to be a little different than the Oslo, Ariane and Neos of this world, do consider this new line of glass. With your help I can get some interesting quantities in, which I could keep on stock for you or the coop. Prices are competitive with the Saver glass. Let me know. Frank
  8. Absolutely, just tell me what kind (wood, PVC, Alu)
  9. We have now the 22 mm cork available. As an introduction we offer these at extremely competitive prices. The corks are monblock, metalhead or woodhead. On top of this we have high volume discounts. Minimum order: 1500. Please contact me for samples and prices. Happy distilling! Frank 1 877 762 1867 ext 235
  10. Dear friends, In my quest to offer you a better or equivalent product at lower prices, I have the pleasure to anounce the launch of a Fidji style bottle from our South American glass makers. The glass is clear flint, lower in weight and has a beautiful design. This is not a copy, it is an established mold to which the Saver Fidji is the nearest example. Note that for you craftdistiller on the West Coast you reduce shipping cost and energy cost because we would boat this glass to your door. You would be green while saving money. Contact me for samples and terms. Quoted prices are based on less than full load quantities. Minimum order 1 pallet bulk (1350). Introductory price: 1.50$ per bottle FOB Montreal 1877 762 1867 ext 235
  11. Are you still looking? I might have the 750 ml version. Send me an email so that I can reply to you with the scanned image: frank.hoytink@unitedbottles.com
  12. Dear all, for those who haven't received my personal email, I have the pleasure to introduce our new bottle made in Europe which will proudly become part of our spirits line. Call for prices and specs. I look forward to saving you money and have you benefit from the excellent services we provide. Minimum order: 1 pallet (bulk or in cases) Call me! 1877 762 1600 ext 235. Cheers, Frank
  13. Dear all, After considerable interest from the market we are now carrying a nice line of bartops from sizes 18-19-20 OD. Do call for prices and samples. Minimum orders 2000, European made. They fit really well on our glass, call me at 1 877 762 1867 ext 235 www.unitedbottles.com
