Glass Pattern Designs Used by Middle Eastern Brands (with a quick beginner's guide attached)

In the Middle East, an increasing number of catering brands, aromatherapy brands and home retail brands have begun to customize glassware themselves, ranging from tea cups, water bottles to candle jars. The core lies not in the products themselves, but in the patterns.

You may have noticed:

1.The glass cups sold well in supermarkets all come with brand decorative paper

2.Fruit platters with "Eid Mubarak" stickers sell faster during festivals

3.Even for aromatherapy glass jars, an increasing number of customers are demanding customized patterns

Then why is everyone doing decal patterns? As a brand owner, what should you do to avoid detours?

The pattern is a key factor in determining whether customers are willing to buy or not

Even for the same type of cup, as long as different styles of patterns are pasted on it, consumers' feelings will be completely different.

For instance, we made two sets of glass water bottles for a client from ABU Dhabi. One set was pasted with geometric patterns and the brand name, and the other set was completely transparent. The former sells much better than the latter both online and offline channels.

The reason is actually quite simple: Middle Eastern consumers are increasingly fond of products that are "design-oriented" and "recognizable", especially those with high exposure on social media platforms (such as aroma cups, glass bottles, etc.). Your pattern design is actually the first impression of your brand in the minds of customers.

"Customized flower paper" sounds complicated, but in fact, it's very easy to get started

Many customers worry when making decorative paper glass for the first time:

1.What should I do if I can't do pattern design?

2.Is the color prone to fading?

3.Is it because the cup shapes are different that it doesn't stick well?

In fact, we have helped our clients solve all these problems.

Several key knowledge points:

1.The flower paper can use the ready-made patterns in our library, or you can provide the logo or festival theme, and we will adapt it to the cup shape

2.We support high-temperature decal technology. After the patterns are fired, they can be washed with water, are wear-resistant and will not fade

3.For different cup shapes, we will create exclusive templates and 3D simulation diagrams to give you a preview of the finished product effect in advance

For customers who are doing brand customization for the first time, we recommend starting with small batches of 3,000 to 5,000 sets to control costs and test the waters quickly.

What patterns sell best now? We have sorted out the popular choices of Middle Eastern customers

The following are the pattern types that we have shipped the most to Middle Eastern customers this year:

1.Arabic patterns with gold accents – Popular on tea cups, fruit plates, and candle jars, these designs add a festive and ceremonial touch, making them ideal for Ramadan and Eid campaigns.

2.Brand logos with minimalist lines – Clean and modern, this style is favored for water bottles and cold drink glasses.  It helps establish a clear brand identity while keeping things sleek and elegant.

3.“Eid Mubarak” calligraphy – Common on gift sets and bottle bundles during festive seasons.  Fast-selling and perfect for limited-time collections.

4.Decal + frosted spray finishes – Often used for scented candle jars and decorative holders, this combo creates a high-end feel, perfect for gifting or luxury homeware collections.

It is recommended that you plan for custom styles 3 to 4 months before Eid every year, as it usually takes 25 to 35 days from design, sample making, production to container loading.

Not only do we produce products, but we are also helping our clients "create bestsellers"

We are not merely taking orders; rather, we are accompanying you in transforming a glass product into a "product that can sell well".

For example:

A customer from Riyadh told us, "Our brand has just been launched and we don't have a designer. Could you help us come up with a pattern plan?" We provided 20 pattern references and matched 3 packaging combinations. They selected 5 to go online. The first batch was sold out in less than 10 days.

Some customers also reported that they needed photo materials for e-commerce operations. We provided them with high-quality white background images and simulated display images as a package, saving them additional shooting costs.

If you plan to establish your own glassware brand in the Middle East market or enhance the aesthetic appeal and memorable features of your existing products - patterns - it's a small move that can make a big impact right away.

We understand that you might not know where to start, so we have prepared several toolkits:

1.Free pattern gallery (including Eid, halal style, minimalist style)

2.Cup-shaped decals suggestions (Telling you which cup is suitable for large images and which is suitable for small images)
