Milk jugs often make sure a lot of movement during shipping, stacking, and storage. They may be jostled, stacked on top of one another, or exposed to temperature fluctuations—all of which can put additional strain on the container. The circular dent helps absorb sh0cks and impacts, decreasing the likelihood of cracks or breakage. If the jug is accidentally dropped, the dent also offers a bit of “give,” helping to prevent catastrophic spills.
Reducing Plastic Usage for Sustainability
In addition to enhancing durability, the circular dent offers an important environmental purpose: it decreases the amount of plastic needed to produce each jug. By strategically placing the dent, manufacturers can promote the jug’s structure without adding extra material.
