We ordered sample HDPE bottles from a variety of suppliers. Within the next few weeks we plan to lock down on a prototype and start working on spray nozzle sourcing and label design. Sounds easy enough, right?
This part of the process (bottle selection) has been most challenging. Ideally, we'd like to use a shape similar to the Wishbone Salad Spritzers, I Can't Believe It's Not Butter or Newman's Own Salad Mist. These bottles are patented and similar shapes are not readily available from manufacturers for sale. It would require a big chunk of capital to invest in a custom mold to create our own design. This is why we are looking at plastic bottles currently on the market. A select few have caught our eye and we should be making a decision soon!
