			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When one thinks of luxury hotels, the image of, well, luxury comes to mind and this goes down to the smallest detail&#8211;including custom bottled water. Some hotels do have bottled water that may have their label on it, but why not take things a step further and offer not only your customized label to the water, but also your own special water in the bottle? Now that&#8217;s luxury which guests will remember long after the meals and customer service have fallen into distant memory.</p>
<h2>Custom bottled water has many uses and benefits for luxury hotels, but here&#8217;s just a few to consider:</h2>
<p><span id="more-395"></span></p>
<p><em>You Get to Choose Your Own Label</em></p>
<p>So maybe your usual label is ok, but it&#8217;s definitely not you. This is because most print shops can only go so far and perhaps you are limited by the fact that you have to put the brand name of some other water company on the label. This means that the water your guests are drinking isn&#8217;t your hotel water; it&#8217;s someone else&#8217;s water. When you older custom bottled water, you get to ask for a label design which is unique to your company and that means the hotel is recognizable, branded, and memorable. And a memorable hotel is one more likely to be used again and again.</p>
<p><em>What&#8217;s In the Bottle? &#8211; You Decide!</em></p>
<p>Remember what we said before about labels being hampered by the fact that you may have to give credit to whoever created the water inside it? Well the biggest advantage of custom bottled water is that you decide what&#8217;s in the bottle, making the water unique to the luxury hotel. Glas Water can help you create tasty water that is entirely your own. Whether it is water that is infused with delicate flavours such as lavender or water infused with minerals and vitamins, you can decide what water best encapsulates the personality of your luxury hotel.</p>
<p><em>Have Fun With It!</em></p>
<p>It must be admitted that choosing water for the hotel room fridges is a bit… well, dull. But if you can choose every aspect of the water, from the flavor to the oxygen levels, then the bottle itself and the label seems a lot more personal and it&#8217;s easier to get enthusiastic about. Enthusiasm has a habit of leeching off onto others&#8211;and furthermore, if the hotels is showing a personal touch all the way to the water guests are drinking, it certainly shows a level of care and that&#8217;s always a good thing in the service industry.</p>
<p>Also, if your luxury hotel does things like catering events or hosting events, you can even let event coordinators choose the right water for that event! Now that will be considered an awesome level of care and service&#8211;and only you need to know how easy it all was.</p>
<p>What&#8217;s going to be more memorable? A flavorful mineral water with your company logo on it or some generic water which is branding a different company? The answer should be clear as water! Make your luxury hotel water into a wonderful, completely customized experience for yourself and your guests.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For many people, the water that comes out the tap is, well, OK, but it’s hardly interesting! There are plenty of people who know that they should be drinking their eight glasses a day, but can’t bring themselves to drink something tasteless. The same holds true whether you’re at home or at an event; water will always be there, but water that stands out will stay in the minds of those around you. That’s why flavored (or fortified) water will always be a crowd-pleaser and Glas Water is here to help you. What better way to boost your company’s visibility and brand with ease than with tasty flavored or fortified water?<span id="more-373"></span></p>
<p>There are lots of flavored and fortified waters on the market, but you don’t want standard water with another company on it; you want your own flavored water with your own brand on the label. Glas Water can easily fulfill both needs; we not only gives you custom labels to put on your bottles, but can also fill those bottles with something unique for every event you host. So the real question to ask yourself is, what kind of <a href="http://www.glaswater.com">custom bottled water</a> would you like?</p>
<h2>Flavored Water</h2>
<p>Glas Water provides a wide range of flavored waters for you to commission and use at events. Flavored water is always welcome! Popular flavors include berry, fruit, and vanilla, as well as some herbs like mint. Flavored water is particularly popular with children and with young adults for whom plain water is just too boring. You can use flavored water in a variety of ways at social functions: match up the flavor of your water with your event in some way (for example, a spring fling could feature berry water; Christmas, mint!). But no matter what kind or kinds you choose, your water will be a hit and that means people will remember and you and your brand. If you’re feeling really daring, you can create something unique and name it after your company! Why not? </p>
<h2>Fortified Water</h2>
<p>Glas Water provides fortified water which can be used for things like sporting events, athletic meets and other events where water that is filled with something other than oxygen and hydrogen is needed! Our water is strengthened with electrolytes, vitamins and minerals and the rounded off with a flavor of your choosing (should you choose any at all). Fortified water is the next step up in water and it’s something which many people rely on in order to stay healthy while they work hard. </p>
<p>Now, fortified water will not cure anything or make you into a super man or anything, but many athletes, hands on workers, and those who are doing strenuous work all day find that water infused with electrolytes keeps them going longer&#8211;so it’s a great way to strengthen your brand if you’re in this sort of field and help others at the same time.</p>
<p>When you think of turning <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottled_water" target="_blank">bottled water</a> into a calling card for your company, you probably go as far as the label and stop there. However, what’s inside the bottle counts for even more than what’s on the outside! Give your clients and guests something to talk about: give them custom flavored and fortified water from Glas Water. We’re waiting to help you bring that extra special touch to the most important fluid in the world. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When it comes to figuring out ways to improve your business brand, you may have to think outside the box just a little! Perhaps your business can benefit from creating custom bottled water which can be used at events. After all, if there&#8217;s one thing people need, it&#8217;s water!</p>
<p>You may not have thought much about it, but using <a href="http://www.glaswater.com/">private label bottled water</a> at events is an easy way to boost the visibility of your company. Everyone will be drinking bottled water with your label on it, and you will be gaining visibility that will cause your brand <span id="more-366"></span>to soar! You could have your branded bottles at parties, fundraisers, big dinners, award ceremonies, or just about any event you can think of.  And if your customized water bottle is seen by the media, even better! Your logo on the bottle could be seen in photographs and TV, and this is the best kind of publicity which gives you a quick and powerful boost in visibility.</p>
<p>There are lots of ways to create custom water for your brand which can then be shown off in events. There is of course, the standard sort of labels which are designed to your specifications and include things like the name of your company, the name of your water and contact information. But how about going the extra mile? Take advantage of the fact that you can choose different shapes and sizes for your bottles, different designs done by a professional ad designer, and you can even use fortified and formulated water! These can range from the simple mineral water all the way to fortified water with rare botanicals in them (available in large shipments). The more memorable you can make your custom bottled water, the more memorable your business will be and the more likely it is that people will come to you.</p>
<p>It’s not just bringing about the people who drink your water though, people will talk to others about it. In the information age of social networking and blogging, people talk fast. You can take advantage of this by using custom bottled water that event goers will not only enjoy, but if it&#8217;s interesting to them, will talk about later. And all of those people will have friends who will hear about you so your brand message can get those people as well with absolutely no additional effort on your part. The joy of the internet is all the free advertising you can get just by letting people talk about you, and of course, giving them something positive to say.</p>
<p>It’s not just the ease by which your name will be passed around though, it’s also cost effective. Getting your brand out by other means can be pricey: it costs money for advertisements, online and offline; it costs money to run ads on television, radio, print and online&#8211;and many people ignore these ads anyway! But custom bottled water is not only relatively affordable, it’s also something solid that people have a hard time ignoring. You are giving people a tangible product and advertisement to hold onto which always makes people more inclined to pay attention to your brand. Aren’t you more inclined to buy something when you get to try a sample of it first or when you see it on something you use and the thing you’re using is interesting or great in some way?</p>
<p>So, if you want to boost your brand, using custom bottled water at big or small events is not only a creative way to break out of the standard sort of advertising, but it’s also very effective and adds value to the consumer!  Break free of the common methods of advertising and give yourself and your clients with something better. Boost your business brand by showcasing your custom bottled water at events and beyond and watch your brand fly high.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Let&#8217;s talk about the most important substance on the planet: water! Without it no biological life could exist. In recent years, bottled water has become a popular item on the shelves of supermarkets, in the cupboards at homes, and on the dining tables of hotels and in their rooms.</p>
<p>By using <a href="http://www.glaswater.com">custom bottled water</a> in the hospitality industry, you are sending a powerful message to your clients. It is an effective means of promoting your brand and an essential element in your advertising effort. All business owners will tell you just how costly traditional advertising is and you are hardly able to determine its effectiveness.<span id="more-354"></span></p>
<p>When one advertises in print media, the cost for one insertion is very expensive. In the case of the hospitality industry, you will require several insertions. The same can be said for Television and Radio Advertising. They all have the same draw backs and are more expensive. For the hospitality industry, however, using custom bottled water is an effective way of advertising because the people will leave your establishment&#8211;and pass your brand on&#8211;with a custom label water bottle.</p>
<p>The use of custom bottled water as a form of advertising delivers a high quality message that is designed based on your specification. And with the rising popularity of bottled water, your service message and brand will be delivered all over by the persons who your serve.</p>
<p>The main theme of custom bottled water is to push your brand by emphasizing quality. This will be seen by customers in the label, quality of the product&#8217;s appearance&#8211;and even more importantly, the purity and quality of the water itself.  These are all critical elements.</p>
<p>The design quality, combined with crystal clear taste, will substantially strengthen your brand&#8217;s message. If you decide only to focus on the quality of the label and not the taste, this will greatly reduce the positive impact of the brand. This why it is extremely important to emphasize quality.</p>
<p>If you are a part of the Hospitality industry, you stand to benefit greatly from using private labeled bottled water.</p>
<p>There are several companies that produce custom bottled water for the hospitality industry, however most do this as a secondary business, so adequate emphasis is not placed on quality. There are, however, specialized bottled water suppliers that place great emphasis on advertising and product quality. The end product is one that consumers will enjoy as it leaves a positive brand impact that is far reaching in the way of mouth to mouth advertising.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In a cut-throat marketing environment you need a product that will stand out among the rest. Consumers just do not have the time when shopping to read what your product has to offer, so their first instinct is to choose the product that is most appealing to their eyes. Studies have showed that a consumer will most often purchase a product based on appearance alone.  Currently there are just over 100 brands of bottled water on the United States market alone. <span id="more-345"></span>With this statistic you need to give your product an advantage that will allow it to stand out among the rest.</p>
<p>Marketing experts will tell you that by creating a proprietary bottle for your <a href="http://www.glaswater.com">privately labelled bottled water</a>, you are giving you product a better chance of being seen and purchased. With Custom Shape Water Bottles, you can personalize and say to potential consumers that your product is a cut above the rest.</p>
<p>It is important that you use a company that is capable of transforming your concepts into a custom shape bottled water product that consumers will enjoy seeing and using.  There are two product types available: The first type of mold is available in 16oz and 20oz sizes; for clients who are not interested in designing their own mold, they can choose to have their logo molded into a smooth custom water bottle designs. The neatly molded logo will leave plenty of space to include your proprietary label.</p>
<p>Many clients are seeking to distinguish themselves in the marketplace. At Glas Water we are capable of turning your concepts into a reality through custom designs. The cost of a custom design is completely dependent on what you the customer wants and the design complexity.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>
<p>The chemical bisphenol A that poses a number of serious health threats that include cancer and endocrine disorders has now been banned in the manufacture and production of baby bottles in California. This comes as a major relief for a number of parents who were hoping that their children would be protected from the harmful effects of this troublesome chemical. Studies that indicate a harmful effect to no risk ratio of 9:1 led the EWG to pass the Toxin-Free Infants and Toddlers Act. There has been fierce opposition from all chemical industries against this legislation that bans <span id="more-330"></span>the use of BPA or bisphenol A (that disrupts hormones) in sipping cups and baby bottles. Protective measures such as AB 1319 that help reduce the exposure to BPA shed light on the steps being taken by the leadership to safeguard the health of fetuses, infants, and children who are extremely vulnerable to chemical hazardous agents that disrupt the normal functioning of their endocrine system, their brain, behavior, and prostate gland.</p>
<p>As a part of the bill, <a href="http://glaswater.com/products.html">manufacturers</a> have also been asked to use the least toxic alternative substance for manufacturing these products thought major retailers and manufacturers stopped using BPA in their bottles from 2006. With the amount of literature available on the dangerous effects of these chemicals on infants and children, it is imperative that parents choose the right and the safest products for their children. There are some companies that have been extremely conscious of the devastating effects of BPA and their plastic water bottles are completely <a href="http://glaswater.com/products_bpa_free.html">BPA free</a>. While polycarbonate bottles use BPA as a part of their production process, PET (Polyethylene Teraphthalate) plastic bottles never use BPA as a chemical building block for any of the materials employed in the manufacture of PET plastic.</p>
<p>It is recommended that people choose bottles made of porcelain, glass, and stainless steel over plastic bottles for babies because glass does not contain any of these controversial chemicals. More often than not, hard plastic bottles that are marked grade 7 along with the recycling symbol may contain BPA, so the best bet is to buy it from manufacturers who clearly label their products <a href="http://glaswater.com/about_glas_water.html">BPA free</a>. Microwaving plastic bottles is a big no no because they break down over a period of time and seep into food and water. So, buying only those plastic labels that are marked Class 1 is advisable.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling" target="_blank">recycling industry</a> for PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is huge mainly due to the advantageous physical properties and the chemical alertness of this material that also makes it suitable as a food grade packaging plastic. As the case with most plastics, PET is also derived from the polymerization reaction between an acid and an alcohol in oil. Though it was initially used as a substrate for photographic, video, and x-ray film and also as a <span id="more-342"></span>synthetic fiber due to its excellent properties of wash and wear, it was only a few years later that its modifications began to appear in extruded and injection molded products.</p>
<p>The 3 D structures that were produced using a wide array of blow molding techniques in the early 1970s saw the quick adoption of this material for the manufacture and production of beverage bottles. It was an ideal material with its light weight, toughness, appropriate gas barrier performance, and incredible optical properties. The IBWA (international bottled water association) reported a 500% increases in the sales of bottle water over the last ten years with 1.5 million tons of plastic being used to bottle water annually. Apart from being the fastest growing beverage industry in the world, <a href="http://www.glaswater.com">custom bottled water</a> has stormed the markets in its new recyclable form through the concept of 100% recycled PET bottles.</p>
<p>The initiative to reduce, reuse, and recycle plastic as an eco friendly movement has given rise to the industry of plastic recycling and <a href="http://glaswater.com/products_rpet.html" target="_blank">PET bottle recycling</a> comprises a major segment of these ‘Go Green’ efforts. Statistics indicate that the United State’s recycling rate has risen to 32% from a low 9.6% in 1980 wherein less than 6% of plastic was recovered from its municipal waste in 2005. While the levels of production and consumption remain at an all time high, the purpose of recycling is not to promote but to decrease the overall usage of plastic.</p>
<p>There are numerous incentives in place to promote recycling efforts that include refunding a fraction of the cost of the beverage when the container is returned to the store along with legislations around container deposits in countries across the globe as well as in some American states. Recycled PET plastic bottles or rPET are now manufactured using processes that reduce the requirement of virgin plastic resins and they have also received the approval of the FDA and Health Canada for the food packaging due to their new levels of purity.</p>

<p>Water that is fortified with essential vitamins and minerals has stormed the markets and the latest offering from the beverage industry is now taking center stage in North America. <a href="http://glaswater.com/products_formulated_water.html">Fortified water</a> is premium bottled water that is custom formulated to meet the customers’ specific needs and requirements and there are few companies that possess the technical expertise apart from having all the necessary equipment to manufacture vitamin enriched water that has the perfect formulation. <span id="more-339"></span>These water bottles are now sold at local eateries and convenience stores and they are also available in a variety of colors and have a number of interesting names like Endurance, Power-C, and focus.</p>
<p>People like picking up a bottle of fortified water not because they need something refreshing and tasty to drink, but because of the promise made by the beverage manufacturers of the water being loaded with vitamins that boost energy and performance levels. These advertising gimmicks have been around for quite a while now and the truth is the vitamin and mineral absorption levels of these active components by the body is minimal compared with their absorption through the dietary intake of foods that are rich in minerals and vitamins. The sugar and calorie counts of these drinks must also be taken into account as each bottle may contain as much as 32 grams of liquid sugar or crystalline fructose than amounts to 125 calories a bottle.</p>
<p>However, the flipside is that there are a number of tasty flavors and types of fortified mineral water that are currently available. These contain as little as ten calories per serving to 0, so people on a diet need not stay away from them if they really need to meet their daily consumption of vitamin water. Additionally, vitamin and mineral water is a much better option when compared with regular soda that is loaded with calories that do not improve the overall state of healthy in any way apart from giving people a fast energy boost. This water also contains various combinations of herbs that can benefit people based on their exercise regimen, daily dietary requirement of vitamins and minerals, or just their mood and it is ideal for people who are diet conscious and have adapted a healthy lifestyle. This water also contains electrolytes that prove beneficial for people who are suffering from flu or who are involved in an intense physical activity and tough workouts.</p>

<p>There are scores of progressive <a href="http://www.glaswater.com/">water bottling companies</a> today that offer customers a wide range of products that includes altered states of water and each of these represents a unique biochemical modality that are developed, defined, and marketed by them. The industry of ready-made beverages and a highly competitive and intensely dynamic marketplace for this type of water is expanding by leaps and bounds both domestically as well as internationally. Ordinary drinking water that has been enriched with oxygen gas or O2 is referred to as oxygenated or superoxygenated water. On an average, the total amount of dissolved oxygen in ordinary drinking water at room temperature is <span id="more-335"></span>8 mgw per liter, which can be further increased by introducing oxygen gas into the water to 40 mg per liter per each standard atmosphere of pressure. Research indicates that there is no evidence to prove that drinking water which has supplemental oxygen boosts athletic performance and increases stamina apart from improving overall brain functions and shortening the recovery period involved after strenuous physical activity. Studies were conducted by Human Performance Research Lab at the University of Wisconsin and it sponsored by the ACE (American Council on Exercise).</p>
<p>When people drink oxygenated water immediately after opening a pressurized container, most of the extra oxygen bubbles out due to the release of pressure. Only a few oxygen molecules find their way into the digestive tract and a negligible amount of oxygen really finds its way into the bloodstream. Organs like the lungs and components of the blood like red blood cells absorb oxygen molecules and nutrients for their biological activity and the absorbed oxygen is then distributed to the other cells of the body. Compared to the digestive tract, the lungs are a lot more efficient in absorbing oxygen, so it is recommended to work on increasing your respiratory rate rather than drinking oxygenated water alone to increase the concentration of oxygen in the blood.</p>
<p>The extra oxygen that is pumped into the water is used by the cells of the body after it is absorbed by the digestive tract ad some people swear that they have felt better when they drink oxygenated instead of tap water. So, this seems to be a good product for people who are health conscious and love investing in water that comes packaged in these great looking bottles. The <a href="http://glaswater.com/about_glas_water.html">oxygen enrichment market</a> includes concentrates as well as small bottling companies that release the oxygen in a more bio-available format from the body’s cells. Considering the fact that the physical characteristics of water and far less definitive that its chemical characteristics, there are an increasingly growing number of research, development and marketing efforts to understand the structured and memory aspects of water in more detailed and systematic way.</p>
