Product Definition

Borosilicate glass drinkware refers to teapots, cups, and mugs crafted from a specialized glass composition rich in boron trioxide. This material grants exceptional thermal and chemical resistance, making it ideal for serving hot tea, coffee, or cold beverages directly, without risk of breakage from sudden temperature changes, thereby redefining safety and durability in kitchenware.

For B2B buyers and glassware suppliers, finding drinkware that combines aesthetic appeal with uncompromising durability is a key challenge. Our high borosilicate glass teapots and cups provide the definitive solution. As an experienced glassware manufacturer, ZGS Glass leverages the inherent strengths of this premium material—known for its low thermal expansion coefficient—and enhances it through artisan glassblowing and extensive customization.

F (Feature): The fundamental feature is the borosilicate glass composition itself. Unlike standard soda-lime glass, our formula incorporates over 12% boron trioxide. This scientific alteration fundamentally changes the glass's molecular structure. Furthermore, each piece is hand-blown by master craftsmen, allowing for the integration of custom textured surfaces such as smooth, hammered, vertical rib, horizontal stripe, or polka-dot patterns directly into the glass body. Handles can be fitted in any color from our pigment library.

A (Advantage): This material science translates into clear performance advantages. The borosilicate composition enables remarkable thermal shock resistance, safely enduring temperature swings from -20°C to 120°C. This means products can go from freezer to hot beverage service without cracking. The hand-blown technique ensures superior thickness consistency and a unique, premium feel compared to pressed glass cups. The textured surfaces not only provide visual and tactile appeal but also offer an improved grip.

B (Benefit): For your business, these advantages deliver significant benefits. You can market a line of glassware that promises safety and longevity to end-consumers, reducing potential returns and building brand trust for home decor and kitchenware collections. The ability to customize textures and handle colors from a client's CAD drawing allows you to create signature product lines that stand out in a crowded tabletop market. An MOQ of 1,000 pieces per design provides a feasible entry point for developing exclusive, high-margin collections.

E (Evidence): Our expertise is validated by rigorous testing and scalable processes. Each batch of raw material is verified for composition, and finished samples undergo cycle testing from ice water to boiling water. Our production capability is anchored by our "From Design to Production" Assurance Program. Utilizing our Intelligent Design Collaboration Platform, we transform your concept into a 3D prototype for approval within days. Our manufacturing, backed by international approvals like BSCI, ISO, and WCA, ensures every custom glass beverage dispenser or teapot meets consistent quality standards. As a long-term supplier to major retailers, our systems are proven for global volume orders.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions):

1. Q: What exactly makes borosilicate glass more heat-resistant?
   A: The key is its low coefficient of thermal expansion (about one-third that of regular glass). The boron trioxide content reduces how much the glass expands when heated and contracts when cooled, preventing internal stresses that cause common glassware to shatter.

2. Q: Are the colored handles also heat-resistant and durable?
   A: Yes. We use specially formulated, heat-stable pigments and resins to craft the handles. They are designed to withstand the temperatures of the liquid inside the vessel and are firmly bonded for long-term use.

3. Q: Can you create a matching set including a glass whiskey decanter or wine decanter in borosilicate glass?
   A: Absolutely. Our customization expertise and material capability extend across product categories. We can develop a cohesive tableware or drinkware line using the same borosilicate glass, textures, and color accents for a unified brand presentation.

4. Q: What is the typical lead time for a custom 1,000-piece order?
   A: After final sample approval, production typically takes 50-65 days. The initial prototyping and sampling phase can be completed in as little as 10-15 working days using our rapid 3D modeling and sample production system.

5. Q: Is the glass dishwasher and microwave safe?
   A: Yes, our borosilicate glass is highly resistant to thermal shock and chemical corrosion, making it dishwasher safe. It is also microwave safe for heating beverages. However, components like handles or lids (if made from other materials) should be checked per the specific product guidelines.
