Saralon presents festive liqueur in illuminated bottles combining creative design with printed electronics.
Saralon GmbH has partnered with the premium glass decoration company Dekorglass Działdowo S.A. to combine creative design with printed electronics directly on glass bottles.
As a manufacturer of inks and production know-how for printed electronics, Saralon has developed a universally unique approach for direct printing of functional inks on glass bottles using fully automatic glass decoration systems. The technology, called SaralLight LED on Glass, showcases the successful mass commercialisation of printed electronics in consumer goods by transforming standard converters into advanced sophisticated printed electronics production systems.
To create this festive liqueur bottle that’s been widely distributed in the Christmas markets by a renowned international retailer, Saralon partnered with Polish premium glass decorator Dekorglass Działdowo S.A. They printed Saral Inks directly onto glass bottles and added mini-LEDs, all on a fully automated glass decoration line.

Removing the need for plastic or paper labels
Printed electronics is a sustainable additive manufacturing process that reduces waste compared to traditional electronics, which use subtractive etching and hazardous materials. In addition to these generic benefits of PE, SaralLight LED on Glass removes the need for plastic or paper labels, offering another eco-friendly benefit. To top it off, the innovative light activation on the glass upon touch adds a surprising and smart feature that delights shoppers and consumers.
Revolutionizing Glass Decoration
The groundbreaking innovation in glass decoration by Dekorglass is a new LED technology, developed in collaboration with Saralon and powered by their cutting-edge SaralLight technology.
The innovative technology involves the precise printing of conductive tracks directly onto the glass surface, eliminating the need for paper labels.

Additionally, the company has successfully integrated a battery directly into the bottle, a groundbreaking advancement in the industry.
The result? A bottle that lights up in your hands, creating a truly unforgettable visual experience. Whether it’s a subtle glow or a vibrant burst of colour, this LED technology can be customized to match any brand or product.
