SLODES · Design. Engineering. Glass.
A manufacturer of distinctive glass packaging. From the first sketch to serial production, we combine expressive form with well-engineered technology.
01 / About us
Some companies begin with a business plan. Others begin with an idea — the ability to see more in familiar things than others do.
SLODES grew out of exactly that way of seeing.
From attention to form. To material. To details that may seem insignificant at first glance, yet are exactly what create impression, character and recognition. Where others see just an object, SLODES looks for an image. Where a standard solution might seem sufficient, we look for a way to make it different — more precise, more expressive, more distinctive.
Over time, this approach became part of the company’s character.
SLODES learned to understand the market, listen to clients and take on complex challenges. Each new project became more than just another job — it became part of a larger journey, from idea to form, from concept to result, from the first sketch to an object you want to pick up and examine.
The company grew together with its projects. The scale changed, new capabilities emerged and horizons expanded. But one thing remained constant — our attitude to the work itself.
We do not believe in accidental solutions.
Every line should have a purpose. Every material should serve its function. Every detail should contribute to the overall impression.
Because a real product begins long before production starts. It is born the moment an idea appears of what it should be: bold or delicate, restrained or daring, classic or unexpected.
SLODES helps turn that idea into form.
Over the years, the company has become a place where experience meets curiosity, technology meets aesthetics, and precise engineering meets creative intuition. We know how to work with proven solutions — and how to search for new ones when conventional approaches are not enough.
For SLODES, simply completing a task is not enough.
What matters is understanding what the result should be so that it lasts beyond the moment it first appears. So that it is noticed. Remembered. So that it speaks about the product before a single word is said.
Today, SLODES is a story that continues.
A story of people, ideas, material and form. A story of constant exploration — of finding the solution that seems obvious only after it has been discovered.
And perhaps that is why there is always room ahead for the next idea.
02 / Technology behind the form
Each stage helps preserve the original concept and prepare the product for serial production.
A technical brief and engineering drawing make it possible to evaluate the shape before production begins.
Together with specialised partners, we prepare tooling for the specific product and the equipment of the glassworks.
About mould sets ↗Pilot trials at production facilities help identify technological nuances before full-scale production.
About production ↗We offer screen printing, frosting, colouring and embossing for glass packaging from our range.
Decoration options ↗03 / The language of form
Packaging introduces the product before the first sip. We look for expression in the glass itself.
Height, shoulders, base and neck come together to create a coherent image. Restrained or expressive — in line with the character of the product.
Transitions between facets, relief and the rhythm of lines reveal themselves in the light. Details make the glass part of the brand experience.
Shape, closure and decoration should work together. We consider them as parts of one visual identity from the very first sketch.
04 / Industry community
Expertise in the glass industry is shaped by the work of designers, engineers and production specialists. For SLODES, professional dialogue about material, form and technology matters.
You can read about the company’s participation in industry events in the “Exhibitions and industry community” section below.
For wholesale products, the minimum order shown on the website starts from one pallet. The quantity per pallet, availability and supply terms are specified for each selected item.
Yes, for bottles from the SLODES range. The stated minimum is one full truckload — 26 pallets of the same type and volume. The technology and commercial terms are agreed separately.
Send a product description, desired container volume, a reference for the shape, planned order quantity and timeframe to info@slodes.ru. This will help our team discuss the project in practical detail.
05 / Social responsibility
SLODES supports charitable initiatives and helps children’s homes.
For us, contributing to society is an important part of the company’s work. Supporting children and the institutions that care for them holds a special place in these efforts.
