Spice grinder durability and longevity are factors that play a key role in your overall reputation. While some grinders are used once before being recycled, others are used for refill packs. For consumers, refills offer an affordable way to enjoy their favourite seasonings without the need to purchase new bottles. This means that grinders and bottles need to be durable enough to last through their life cycle.
What factors affect durability and longevity? More importantly, how can you, as a producer, do to ensure that your spice grinders can be reused for years to come? In this guide, we’ll take a look at how you can maximise quality to keep your grinders working as well as they work now and down the line.
The Importance of Spice Grinder Durability
From choosing the right suppliers all the way to choosing the right bottle, here are a few ways to increase spice grinder longevity.
Select your supplier carefully
First things first, it is essential to choose your supplier carefully. A trusted supplier will be your partner, working with you to find the best products to suit your specific needs. The benefits of a trusted supplier go far beyond providing a large grinder range. A good supplier will offer value-added services, too. This includes everything from tamper-proof lining to custom branding. You’ll also always know that you are working with someone who understands the spice manufacturing industry, ensuring best practices throughout every stage of the production process.
Choose quality over quantity
Quality should always be your number one concern. You may think that saving on costs will allow you to place larger orders, getting more stock out there onto the market. Cheaper grinders mean poorer quality in the majority of cases. The fastest way to reduce durability is poor quality grinders. Cracks in lids, grinders that jam after a few months, bottles that let air in after use, and products that need to be replaced by consumers will have a negative effect on your reputation. ISO certification is vital when choosing grinders, to ensure total peace of mind that you are getting the best quality.
Consider the grinder mechanism
What type of grinder mechanism are you choosing for your seasoning? Will it last the entire time it is used by consumers? Can it last longer once the bottle is refilled? Will it jam over time or will it still work well, even after a refill? Grinder mechanisms should be made to last. Consider the type that works best for your specific seasoning. Here at Global Grinders, we offer a wide range to suit every type of product.
Select the best bottle type
The bottle type is another thing to consider. Glass bottles are often a good choice, as they are designed to last for many years. They are also a good option for consumers who value sustainability, as they can be easily recycled. PET bottles are another eco-friendly option. These are made with safe materials that are non-toxic and safe for reuse. Avoid plastic bottles that are made from cheap materials. Non-recyclable bottles should also be avoided. Make sure that you choose quality bottles that will not leave residue from spices or develop cracks or other damage after single use.
