Cause Analysis

Our team examined the bottle structure, glass thickness, base design, and packing conditions. We found that concentrated impact around the base and insufficient cushioning were the main causes.

Solution

As their glass milk bottle factory, Minghanggroup reinforced the base structure, optimized wall-thickness distribution, and introduced better-fitting dividers inside the cartons. Drop and vibration tests were also added before shipment.
