Pepper Mill Bottles Made Of Different Materials - Custom Plast Fabrication Manufacturer In China -YF Plast

Pepper mill bottles made of different materials differ in several ways, and these differences are mainly in material properties, appearance, durability, and price. Below is a detailed comparison of several common materials used in pepper mills:

Plastic Resin: Plastic resin pepper mills have the advantage of being low-cost and inexpensive, but the disadvantages are more obvious, namely, they are not durable and poor quality plastic may contain harmful substances.

Glass: Pepper mill bottles made of glass are categorized into lead-free glass and high borosilicate glass. Lead-free glass is safe and non-toxic, while borosilicate glass, in addition to being non-toxic, has better resistance to abrasion, corrosion and impact, while not easily harboring bacteria. The disadvantages of glass grinding bottles are mainly that they can be heavy and fragile.

Stainless Steel: Stainless steel pepper grinder bottles have the advantage of being rust-free, less likely to harbor bacteria, and more durable. However, it should be noted that if used for salt, it may allow the metal to corrode, especially when sea salt absorbs moisture and is more likely to cause the metal to rust. In addition, stainless steel grinding bottles are usually on the higher side of the price scale.

Wood: Wooden pepper mill bottles are commonly made of materials such as beech, oak, ebony, etc., which have the advantages of good texture and class. However, the disadvantage of wooden mills is the higher cost, expensive, and need to be maintained from time to time with olive oil, etc. to prevent moisture and mold. Wooden mills are particularly unsuitable for use in areas that are humid all year round.

Ceramic: Ceramic pepper mills have a high abrasion resistance, second only to diamond, and are non-porous, effectively resisting the growth of bacteria. In addition, the thermal conductivity of ceramic mills is much lower than that of steel, which allows them to retain their aroma very well. The main disadvantage of ceramic grinding bottles is that they can be costly.

When choosing a pepper mill bottle, besides considering the material, you also need to pay attention to the design of the grinder, such as the material of the core (ceramic, stainless steel, etc.) and the function of adjusting the coarseness of the pepper. It is recommended to choose the best pepper mill bottle for your needs and preferences.
