About Ash2o ミネラルウォーターボトル

Ash2oは、プレミアムミネラルウォーターのためのパッケージデザインである。このボトルには、中国・新疆ウイグル自治区の天山山脈にある天池の水が満たされている。シルエットは山並みの稜線をなぞり、多面体状の幾何学的な面が峰々の形を想起させる。ボトル本体はガラス製で、キャップはフロスト加工のプラスチック製である。三角形のフォルムは、開栓時や手に取って使用する際に独特のグリップ感をもたらす。複雑な角度を持つ面を成形するために、マルチスライド式の金型システムが開発された。水を飲み終えた後も、ボトルは再利用することができる。

Unique Properties
This mineral water packaging design features water sourced from Heavenly Lake (Tianchi) in Xinjiang, China, nestled within the glacier-rich Tianshan Mountains. Located in a temperature inversion layer, the lake benefits from stable, mild temperatures due to atmospheric circulation, resulting in uniquely pure and naturally mineral-rich water abundant in beneficial elements like calcium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and metasilicic acid.

Production Technology
The bottle features a glass body with a frosted plastic cap. Its multifaceted geometric design demanded extreme precision in mold engineering the asymmetrical angles required careful calculation of draft angles to prevent sticking. Ultimately, we implemented a multi-slide mold system to successfully achieve demolding for these complex surfaces.
Design Challenge
The design and manufacturing process for mountain-shaped bottle molds requires extremely high precision in blow molding and injection molding techniques. We use customized precision molds, creating multiple 3D-printed prototypes for testing. The mold's runner design and cooling system are repeatedly adjusted to ensure proper plastic flow and stable shaping during the molding process.
Research
Unique packaging helps brands stand out, allowing products to charge higher prices in the market. This approach offers reference for business breakthroughs in niche markets. The reusable bottle design aligns with sustainable development principles, encouraging consumers to recognize the value of packaging recycling and promoting environmental awareness in daily life.
Inspiration
For this premium mineral water project using Tianchi Lake's water source, we took inspiration from the Tianshan Mountains' glacial features. The bottle's silhouette mimics the mountain range's profile, with faceted geometric surfaces recreating the peaks' majestic contours. This unconventional design serves as both a direct visual reference to the water's origin and a bold shelf presence that breaks through category conventions.
Project Duration
The project started in Shenzhen in December 2024, was completed in Shenzhen in May 2025, and exhibited in Shenzhen in June 2025.
Operation Flow
Adopting a three-dimensional mountain shaped design, the opening logic of the top bottle cap conforms to daily drinking habits. At the same time, the unique grip feel of the triangular bottle body allows users to obtain a different operational perception from conventional water bottles during opening, holding, and drinking, enhancing their memory points during use.
