Aluminium Bottle, Transparent Spray Glossy Silver Collar, 225 ml

The 225 ml aluminium bottle and the plastic fine mist sprayer with a clear head and a glossy silver collar make a ready-to-use set with a 24/410 neck finish. Aluminium does not let light through, is lightweight and does not break when dropped. The packaging is therefore suitable for water-based products applied by spraying: facial and hair toners, hydrosols, body sprays, air and household textile fresheners, and spray deodorants. The whole set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. It is not intended for food.

The silver bottle with a glossy collar looks uniform, which makers of smaller batches and gift sets will appreciate. The clear head of the sprayer shows whether there is liquid in the pump chamber, so after filling it is easy to check whether the sprayer is “primed”.

What the set is suitable for

• Toners and hydrosols – the sprayer disperses thin water-based products into a fine mist, while the aluminium protects the sensitive contents from light.
• Hair and body sprays – the 225 ml volume matches typical bathroom use and the bottle is comfortable to hold.
• Air and fabric fresheners – water-alcohol mixtures with a fragrance composition are dispensed evenly, and the packaging does not break in everyday use.
• Deodorants and foot sprays – for low-viscosity formulations without powder or sediment that could clog the nozzle.
• Professional use – in salons and workshops where glass is a problem because of its weight or the risk of breakage.

Filling and dispensing

The nominal volume of 225 ml is the amount the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The brimful capacity listed in the parameters is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference is a reserve for the sprayer tube and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Therefore, fill the bottle to the nominal volume, not to the brim, otherwise the liquid will overflow when the sprayer is screwed on.

One press releases approximately 0.12 ml of product. This dose can be used as a rough guide when calculating consumption or preparing fragrance sprays, but the result depends on the viscosity and on how hard the sprayer is pressed.

The sprayer is designed for thin water-based or water-alcohol liquids. Thicker products, gels, emulsions and vegetable oils are difficult or impossible to spray with it. We therefore recommend testing your specific formulation in one sample before you fill an entire batch.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the packaging, rinse it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let it dry completely. Proceed in the same way when reusing it. Pump clean water through the sprayer and then alcohol, so that no residues of the previous contents remain in the tube and nozzle.

Compared with glass, an aluminium bottle is softer and may dent when dropped or squeezed. This usually does not affect the contents, but a deformed bottle may no longer close perfectly.

You will find closures with the same neck finish and other ready-made packaging + closure combinations in the Handymade range. For your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness, the dispensing and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

Once empty, the aluminium bottle belongs in metal waste collection. The sprayer is a combination of polypropylene and an aluminium collar, and we recommend separating the parts before recycling.
