Aluminium Bottle, Black Spray With Glossy Gold Collar, 225 ml

The aluminium bottle with a black sprayer and a glossy gold collar is a ready-made packaging and closure set for 225 ml of liquid cosmetics that are applied by spraying onto the skin, hair or into the air. The silver aluminium blocks out light completely, the bottle is light and it does not break when dropped. This suits products that the customer carries in a bag or takes on trips. The contents are dispensed by a mini trigger sprayer, and each press releases a small amount dispersed into a mist. The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetic products, and the declaration of conformity for the bottle and the sprayer is available with the product.

Suitable uses

The sprayer determines which fillings belong in the set. Low-viscosity liquids that are meant to spread over a larger area in a thin layer work well:

• Face and body toners – water-based and hydrosol toners, refreshing face and body sprays, applied without the hands touching the contents.
• Sprays for hair – light conditioning sprays, sprays with hydrosols or low-viscosity heat protection, where 225 ml is a common size for home use.
• Alcohol-based sprays – room, textile and refreshing sprays based on alcohol. The fragrance evaporates quickly after spraying, and the sprayer dispenses them without dripping.
• Low-viscosity liquid oils – body and massage oils pass through the sprayer, but they come out more as a stream than as a mist. We recommend testing one piece before filling a larger batch.

Emulsions, gels and thicker serums do not belong in the sprayer. They clog the nozzle or come out unevenly.

How to work with the set

One press of the sprayer releases approximately 0.12 ml of the contents. With a toner or spray, two to three presses on the face or on strands of hair are therefore enough, and the customer measures the dose themselves, without pouring it into the palm. The black body of the sprayer is made of polypropylene, and the glossy gold collar is aluminium and covers the joint between the closure and the neck of the bottle.

The sprayer is supplied with a dip tube that draws the contents from the bottom. When you assemble it for the first time, check how the tube sits relative to the bottom of the bottle. If it is longer, shorten it with a diagonal cut so that it does not lie bent and draws up to the last of the contents.

Preparation before filling and reuse

Before the first filling, wash the bottle and the sprayer, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let them dry completely. With the sprayer, spray the alcohol through the nozzle several times so that the tube and the inside of the mechanism are cleaned as well.

The packaging can be reused. Once the contents are used up, unscrew the sprayer, rinse it with warm water, spray clean water through it and let it dry disassembled. Aluminium is recyclable, but separate the plastic sprayer from the bottle before recycling.

Good to know

• Aluminium and the contents – with water-based, acidic or alkaline formulations, we recommend checking how the packaging behaves with your specific recipe before you fill larger quantities. The same applies to fillings with a high proportion of essential oils or solvents, which may affect the plastic parts of the sprayer.
• Opaque packaging – the level of the contents cannot be seen, so information about the volume and the number of doses helps the customer.
• Durability – the bottle does not break, but the aluminium can dent under a strong impact. When shipping in a box, an insert or dividers between the bottles are worthwhile.
• 24/410 neck finish – other closures with the same type of thread from the Handymade range also fit the bottle, and ready-made combinations have their own descriptions. With your own combination, check the tightness, the dispensing and how the packaging behaves with the given formulation.
