Custom-Designed Bottles

Custom Perfume Bottles From 500 Pieces

Custom-designed perfume bottles start from 500 pieces at YAMEI, and production bottles on a fully automatic line start from 5,000 pieces. This page explains both routes, what each depends on, and what to send for a quote, so you can choose the right one before you ask.

01

Two routes for a custom-designed bottle

A custom-designed bottle is made to your own shape and your own mold, rather than taken from the catalogue. YAMEI offers two routes. The first starts from 500 pieces and suits display bottles for exhibitions and showrooms, where a small number of distinctive bottles must exist before any full production run. The second is a fully automatic IS-machine line that starts from 5,000 pieces and suits bottles that will be produced in volume.

The 500-piece route uses a different process, so the unit price is higher than a catalogue bottle or a bottle from the automatic line. The automatic line has a higher minimum but a lower price per bottle at volume. Mold and development sampling fees are separate on both routes and are quoted after your design has been reviewed.

02

Who the 500-piece route suits

Choose the 500-piece route when you need your own bottle shape for an exhibition booth, a showroom, a launch presentation or a brand display, and you do not need thousands of bottles. Tell us the plan before you decide. If you intend to fill and sell the bottles in volume, we will say plainly whether the automatic line is the better fit.

If your design is flexible, a catalogue bottle with your logo is cheaper and starts lower, from 300 pieces. It is often the practical choice for a first sellable run, with a custom-designed bottle used where the shape itself has to stand out.

03

What the price depends on

The unit price depends on the size, the glass weight, the complexity of the shape, the colour and the finish. The mold fee depends on the shape and on how many parts the mold needs. Because these vary from one design to the next, YAMEI does not publish a single price for the 500-piece route. Send the brief and you receive a quotation that sets the unit price, the mold fee and the sampling fee out separately.

For reference figures on the automatic line, stock bottles, caps, decoration and packaging, see the prices page. Those ranges are published in US dollars and are confirmed against your exact specification.

04

Lower minimums when the shape can be shared

Catalogue bottles with screen printing or hot foil start from 300 pieces, and custom boxes made to your exact design also start from 300 pieces. Colour spraying starts from 3,000 pieces. A complete set follows the highest minimum among its bottle, cap, pump, decoration and box.

Because each component has its own minimum, it helps to decide which part of the set must be unique. A distinctive box or cap on a catalogue bottle can reach a strong result at a lower quantity than a new bottle shape.

05

What to send for a quote

The more complete the brief, the faster the design can be reviewed and quoted. A sketch is enough to start, but a drawing, a 3D file or a physical sample removes most of the questions.

  • A sketch, drawing, 3D file or physical sample of the bottle
  • Target capacity and neck size, with the cap and pump you plan to use
  • Quantity and intended use: display, presentation or sale
  • Colour, finish and logo decoration
  • Destination country and the date you need the bottles

06

How the project runs

YAMEI reviews the design for feasibility, confirms the route and quotes the unit price, the mold fee and the sampling fee. After you approve a sample and the order is paid, production starts. Bulk production usually takes 15 to 30 working days after the final specification is confirmed, subject to project review, and transit time is separate. Full payment is required when the order is placed.

07

What YAMEI does not provide

YAMEI supplies empty bottles, caps, spray pumps and packaging. It does not supply perfume liquid, fragrance formulas or filling. YAMEI coordinates specialist production stages and does not claim that every process is completed in one factory.

Project Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I order a custom perfume bottle in a quantity of 500?

Yes, for a bottle made to your own design on the display bottle route, from 500 pieces at a higher unit price. Mold and development sampling fees are separate. Bottles produced in volume on the fully automatic line start from 5,000 pieces.

Why is a 500-piece bottle more expensive per piece?

The 500-piece route uses a different process from the automatic line, and the cost is spread over fewer bottles. Your quotation shows the unit price, the mold fee and the sampling fee separately.

Is there a lower minimum than 500 pieces?

Catalogue bottles with your logo start from 300 pieces, and custom boxes made to your design also start from 300 pieces. A new bottle shape starts from 500 pieces.

Can the 500-piece bottles be filled and sold?

Tell us the intended use when you send the brief. YAMEI confirms whether the 500-piece route or the automatic line fits your plan before you pay.
