Typically our shipments go out on 48″ x 40″ wood pallets and are transported by a trucking company. The footprint is similar to the footprint of your fridge at home. These pallets of bottled water can weigh up to 2000lbs for a full pallet. Due to our significant volume and quantity of shipments the freight carriers provide us special negotiated rates that we pass on to you to make shipping as cost effective as possible.

These shipments of bottled water can be delivered to your home, your office, your warehouse, etc. Give us a shout and we can figure out the most cost effective solution for your needs.

If we have your artwork on file, repeat orders are super easy. Just give us a call or shoot us a message and we will get started on your custom labeled water right away. It is as easy as that! We keep all of the information related to your imprinted water bottles on file and can easily place the same exact order as you initially placed, with no added costs! In many cases, you will find savings on follow up orders.

Our team works fast. Once label artwork is approved, personalized water bottle orders are typically filled in 3-4 weeks for first time orders. We can ship re orders in 10-12 business days. Recurring orders can take as few as 7-10 days, sometimes less. Depending on your proximity to our water bottling plants and warehouse facilities, deliveries can take place next day or up to 4 days after the product is produced. We do our best to communicate a clear timeline and follow up with tracking information as soon as your order of custom labeled bottled water ships.

No, they will print looking very fuzzy, grainy, or “pixelated”. Images from the web are designed to download on your computer quickly (makes websites seem very fast). Images and artwork intended for print take much longer to download but include a wider range of colors and cleaner edges. You can see an example of web vs vector graphics on our label setup page.

High quality artwork is typically produced in vector format (Ai, EPS, SVG, PDF). We do have the ability to vectorize (recreate) your logo — if need be — to make it print clean and clear. Please ask.

We can print any and every color in the rainbow at no extra cost. In art nerd speak, we print full color process (CMYK). If you are trying to reference a brand color, please provide the PMS code and we will do our best to match.

The first step to creating your own water bottle label is to download our water bottle template. Once you have our template you can begin placing your content, placing copy, and changing colors. Most of the water bottle labels that we print involve some combination of a company name or logo, a website url, phone number, address, slogan, promotional message.

Once your water bottle label design is ready please be sure to give us a call and we can handle the printing, bottling and label application process for you.

We use a polymer (plastic) material for the vast majority of our labels. If the lowest cost is the primary objective then occasionally we run a paper product, or a semi-gloss (paper with a gloss coating).

The trick to making a waterproof label is to print on a poly or plastic material which use for the majority of our projects at Custom Water. The plastic waterproof label material may add a bit of cost when compared to paper labels, but we find that it is a great investment in the overall custom bottled water experience and product quality. Water resistant (gloss coated paper), or paper labels tend to saturate once submerged in water or ice and can leave a mess on your hands. For best results, water bottles with paper labels are best placed on a countertop and kept away from moisture.

Printing on water bottles themselves is very rare. That is typically done with a special printing press and bottle combination. Nearly all of the commercial products you see on the shelves or offered at local businesses are actually labeled water bottles. Meaning we print a label then apply to the bottle. We have found that by printing on clear material we can create the illusion of printing on the actual bottle. The clear plastic material is see through and once the ink has cured and bottle wrapped it becomes very difficult to tell that the label was applied rather than printed directly onto the bottle.

If you do not have the ability to design a label – no worries. Just send us your logo and info and let us handle the placement of your branding on the label. Once the label concept is complete, our team will send you a virtual label to review and approve. If you are interested in creating your own water bottle label you have several options. Many of our clients that are designing their own labels use Adobe Illustrator. Adobe Illustrator is the best option as the program outputs vector artwork. Vector artwork is the best option for printing clear and crisp graphics. Other alternatives include Adobe Photoshop, GIMP, or the online service canva.com.

Not anymore. We found that our clients were sourcing our high quality labels and attempting to place them on the flimsy low quality bottles typically sourced at Costco or Walmart. After seeing the end result (and time required), our clients would often call us back and ask us to apply the labels onto our bottles for them. Can you find someone who will sell just the label? Sure. Is it worth it? Depends on your time and what you are willing to accept as the final product. This is not something we recommend though.

The cost of custom label bottled water is typically between $0.25 and $0.48 cents per bottle. The difference in cost is driven by the quantity ordered and produced at one time. The more you order the lower the cost becomes.

To place your brand on a water bottle all you need to do is email us your logo and info. We will put together some label concepts for you and your team to review. Once you are ready we can begin the order and bottling process.

Brands and names are printed on labels which are then applied to the bottle. Either you or we can design your label. Once approved, we can print and apply your custom labels to bottled water and ship them to you. When you receive the water bottles they will be ready to drink, sell, or giveaway.
