ionite product designs
ionite bottle research/ design
Moulding (clay building, resin) and 3D pressing moulds
sketch to lump of clay
size and proportions worked out
Carved out my desired design and look
plastic is moulded around the clay to make the mould/ shape for the prototype. Then resin is used.
resin has dryed for +24hours, and now smooth and sanding for further preparation.
once the prototype was finished sanded, it was off to give it a good polish.
Electrolyte Ball Creation
drilling, carving atom lines, into the electrolyte ball

The finished product below is a prototype.
The product depicted is approximately 50% of the bottle. It is a model, and is sawn in half. Depicted also is the Electrolyte Ball which I product designed. This is due to moulding and shaping. This experiment was the final output of this kind. Data showed that the bottle was received very well by the audience, and it was said to be sturdy and ergonomic.
Labelling and Packaging
Borosilicated Glass:
The Ionite brand is one that I needed to have impact. The bottle is one that is made out of Borosilicated glass. This glass high strength and durability values. The glass is also 100% recyclable. The fact that this glass can be returned to its previous state with-out using near as many resources as you would do when recycling plastic bottles says this is a product to be considered.
The bottle is designed to be Ergonomic and Environmentally friendly at the same time it is meant to be a bottle that can be reused time after the other, or alternatively can be recycled.
Methodology:
The way to get people to buy into this;
We need to offer a return/ deposit system. When the buyers buy the product, they can be offered a deposit-return. This way people will not be throwing these bottles away needlessly, and at the same time it sets them up to potentially purchase another item.
There are 5 types of Flavours the Electrolyte drink would be in.
Banana, Strawberry, Cucumber, Celery, Citrus Orange
