About Zade Chupa ya Mafuta
Zade ni chupa iliyoundwa kwa ajili ya mafuta ya kula. Umbo la mwili unaofanana na tone hudhibiti mtiririko wa mafuta wakati wa kumimina, jambo linalopunguza kurushwa na kudondoka kwa mafuta karibu na shingo ya chupa. Kiuno chembamba, mabega yenye mpito laini na uwiano uliosawazishwa huunda umbo la kisanamu linaloingiliana na mwanga. Chupa hii nyepesi imetengenezwa kwa njia ya kupuliza kutoka kwa preforms za PET katika mifinyanzi ya alumini, na inabeba lebo ya polipropilini iliyowekwa metali ya fedha yenye vanishi ya matte na ya kung'aa sehemu maalum. Mwili wa uwazi huruhusu usafi wa mafuta kuonekana. Zinapatikana katika ukubwa tatu: lita 0.5, 1 na 2.

Behind the Design

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.
- Unique Properties
- In this design, the bottle form takes center stage. Its slim waistline, smooth shoulder transitions, and balanced proportions create a silhouette that is both strong and elegant. The ergonomic structure integrates aesthetics with functionality. Soft curves are balanced with defined lines to express a modern character. While the label supports the concept, the true identity lies in the distinctive bottle geometry that interacts with light and stands out confidently on the shelf.

- Production Technology
- Produced from PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) preforms using aluminum molds.
Metallized printed label is used.
Grey areas represent the natural color of the label material; no ink is printed on these areas. UV matte varnish / selective UV gloss varnish is applied.
Silver metallized PP (Polypropylene) label.
Blow-molded PET bottle produced from preform.
Plastic safety-protected cap. The products are available in four varieties: Sunflower Oil, Corn Oil, Extra Virgin Olive Oil, and Riviera Olive Oil.
The refining process consists of a 36-hour, six-stage system: Degumming, Neutralization, Dewaxing, Bleaching, Winterization, and Deodorization.
Degumming (1 hour):
Natural sediments and gummy substances present in crude oil are removed, preparing the oil for the next stage.
Neutralization (1 hour):
Free fatty acids found in crude oil are neutralized.
Dewaxing (8 hours):
Substances that cause cloudiness and solidification in cold environments are removed from the crude oil.
Bleaching (4 hours):
Color pigments are eliminated, while trace heavy metals and metal ions are adsorbed and removed from the oil.
Winterization (16 hours):
The oil is gradually cooled, allowing crystallized components to be separated. This stage stabilizes clarity and improves visual quality.
Deodorization (6 hours):
Undesired odors and impurities are removed through high temperature and vacuum techniques.
Within this six-stage system, impurities are removed more effectively without damaging the oil’s natural structure. This process extends shelf life, enhances performance during use especially in frying reduces foaming, and ensures longer-lasting stability and clarity. - Design Challenge
- The main challenge was achieving controlled flow and anti-drip performance through a distinctive form without compromising aesthetics and usability.
- Research
- This design explores how form-driven geometry can enhance pouring precision, ergonomics, and user experience in everyday oil consumption.
- Inspiration
- The inspiration behind this design comes from the modern woman who moves confidently between different rhythms of life. Her strength, elegance, discipline, and warmth are translated into a single sculptural form. The flowing silhouette reflects continuity and balance, while the refined proportions symbolize inner stability. Rather than depicting a single role, the design celebrates harmony where ambition and serenity coexist within one powerful identity.
