Abstract
A glass container has an outer glass surface with an inkjet printed image provided on the surface. An at least partially water soluble cold-end coating (CEC) with a thickness from 0.002 to 10 micrometers is present between the outer glass surface and the inkjet printed image. The glass container is preferably a one-way beverage bottle. A method of inkjet printing an image on a glass container comprises the steps of (a) manufacturing a glass container having an at least partially water soluble CEC layer with a thickness from 0.002 to 10 micrometers, and (b) inkjet printing an image on the glass container.
