Aluminium Bottle, Black Spray With Glossy Gold Collar, 100 ml

Aluminium bottle with a capacity of 100 ml and a fine mist sprayer in one pack, ready to be filled with liquid cosmetic preparations that are applied as a fine mist. Aluminium is lightweight, does not break when dropped and does not let light through, so the contents are protected much as they would be in dark glass, but at a lower weight. The silver bottle, black sprayer and glossy gold collar make a complete set, so there is no need to choose or buy a closure separately.

The bottle and the sprayer both have a 24/410 neck finish, and both components are declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. The set is intended for cosmetic products and is not approved for contact with food.

What the set is suitable for

• Face and body toners – thin water-based preparations that are sprayed directly onto the skin.
• Hydrosols and refreshing mists – the sprayer disperses them into a fine mist without soaking the skin.
• Hair sprays and alcohol-based eau de parfum – the opaque bottle protects contents containing alcohol from light, which helps keep the fragrance unchanged for longer.
• Room fragrance sprays – light alcohol-based or water-based blends for spraying into a room.

How to use the set

The sprayer is mechanical, works without a propellant and releases approximately 0.12 ml with one press. The amount is indicative and depends on the viscosity of the contents. It sprays thin, watery and alcohol-based liquids most evenly. Thick and strongly oily preparations come out of it as a stream instead of a mist. For light oils, we recommend testing the behaviour on a small sample.

The sprayer tube is supplied longer than the height of the bottle. Before the first assembly, shorten it so that it reaches just to the bottom and does not kink. Only then will the sprayer draw up the last millilitres of the contents.

The nominal capacity of 100 ml is the amount the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The brimful capacity given in the parameters is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference between the two is a reserve for the sprayer tube and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill the bottle up to the nominal capacity, not to the brim, otherwise part of the contents will be pushed out when you screw on the sprayer.

Good to know

For water-based formulations with a markedly low or high pH, we recommend a trial filling and a check after a few weeks. A change in colour, an odour or pressure in the bottle are signs that the contents are not compatible with aluminium.

The set can be reused. It is enough to wash and disinfect the bottle, and to rinse the sprayer with clean water and then with alcohol by pumping it through several times. Dried contents in the nozzle are the most common reason why a sprayer stops dispensing.

The bottle has a 24/410 neck finish, so other closures with the same thread type from the Handymade range also fit it. With your own combination, we recommend checking the seal and dispensing with your specific formulation.

Once empty, the aluminium bottle belongs in metal recycling. The sprayer is made of plastic and an aluminium collar, so separate it from the bottle before recycling.
