All Sizes Can Be Custom Labeled
CustomWater.com produces custom bottled water and private label bottled water in standard plastic sizes, plus custom aluminum bottled water for premium programs. If you need help with artwork, use the free label designer or send your logo and our team can build the proof.
Custom Plastic Bottled Water for Private Label Orders
Most buyers who ask about custom plastic bottled water are looking for filled, sealed bottles with their own waterproof label. That is the same ordering path as private label bottled water: choose your size, send your logo or artwork, approve the proof, and receive finished bottles ready to distribute.
Use this page to compare bottle sizes, then use the private label page for pricing, minimums, and product details. Custom labeled plastic bottled water should support the product page rather than compete with it.
Order by Case, Pallet, or Large Quantity
Custom bottled water orders are packed by the case, with 24 bottles per case for common plastic formats. Larger quantities can ship by pallet for events, offices, hotels, golf courses, dealerships, and promotional campaigns.
