General information: 

The development, manufacture, and sale of aftermarket - retrofit replacement jars, and blades for HIGH-END blenders such as Vitamix, Blendtec, Waring, and alike. We focus on improving quality and performance and offering our products to a niche market in the smoothie blender market world-wide. We are always looking into making new product and giving it a special twist. For example adding a multi-size sound enclosure box, adapters for the "TO-GO" segment however with focus on Mason glass jar usage instead of plastic, our blades for the use on Blendtec blenders being replaceable instead of built-in fixed, and instead of just blending, we are also looking at standard food processing, slicing, grading, and even juicing and that in multi-size jars and multi-material, such as stainless steel, and glass. We combine our designs to be used one and the same on different platforms, saving in tooling costs. We sell our own products to the retail consumer market and the restaurant industry. We do not advertise. Customers come to our organization and our website organically and by word of mouth. Overall we are looking to be green, lean, and mean competitive. We are profitable, and have been since day one and we are all self-funded for the moment. Investment opportunities may come up with a couple future products, such as a glass jar and the juicer module. The development of these products are currently a bit out of our price / budget range. But that is also the additional huge plus of our organization, we only work on what we can afford. Therefore we are never in a delicate financial situation and it helps us remain highly competitive.

Alterna Jar
Product category: 
Accessories/Gifts/Household

Aftermarket - retrofit replacement jar with replaceable blade assembly and offering the feature of a tamper, 80% market for Blendtec Blenders and 20% in the derivatives of Vitamix / Waring, etc.

Benefit of the Alterna Jar is that the blade assembly is replaceable while the Blendtec jars have fix-installed blade assemblies. When the Blade assemblies in Blendtec jars break and start leaking, the jar has to be thrown away, while with the Alterna jar, if the blade has to be replaced, the user can just do that, thus saving significant time and money and aiding the environment because the Alterna jar does not have to be thrown away.

Lid and Tamper System
Product category: 
Accessories/Gifts/Household

The Lid and Tamper System by Alterna Jar LLC fits on the Blendtec Wildside and Fourside jar, givign the Blendtec user the choice to use their blender in conjuction with a tamper accelerator tool, just like Vitamix users have the choice.

Sound Enclosure
Product category: 
Accessories/Gifts/Household

The sound enclosure box is for a variety of blenders and mixers (Blendtec, Waring, Vitamix, Hamilton Beach, etc.) to help reduce the noise level during blending. We are currently redesigning this product and are looking for component fabricators and suppliers.
