Glass Bottles

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Glass bottles are bottles created from glass. They can vary in size considerably, but are most commonly found in sizes ranging between about 10ml and 5 litres.

Evidence of glass can be found as far back in history as the Phoenicians.

Millions of glass bottles are created worldwide every day. On average there are at least 2 bottle-making factories in each county. It is a highly mechanized process, and the bottles in use now are no longer hand blown as they were in the past.

Such bottles can be used as weapons, either being used to hit someone by themselves, broken to create a make-shift knife, or made into a Molotov Cocktail.

Coca-Cola's "Contour Bottles" are a well known type of glass bottles.
