Amber Plastic Bottle, Silver Disc Top, 300 ml

This 300 ml plastic bottle with a silver disc top cap is designed for liquid and medium-thick products that are dispensed by squeezing the bottle. The amber colour of the PET reduces the passage of light and helps protect contents that are sensitive to light. The plastic is lightweight and will not break if dropped in the shower. The disc top opens by pressing one side of the disc, so the product is dispensed with one hand without unscrewing the cap. The set is supplied as a ready-made combination of bottle and closure with a matching 24/410 neck finish, so there is no need to buy anything else.

What it is suitable for

The 300 ml volume corresponds to a common bathroom product size, where the contents are used daily.

• Shower gels and liquid soaps – a medium-thick consistency flows evenly through the disc top opening, and the dose is easy to estimate.
• Shampoos and conditioners – one-handed dispensing has proved its worth when washing hair, as the other hand stays free.
• Body lotions and lighter emulsions – thicker emulsions are dispensed with a gentler squeeze. Very thick creams are harder to squeeze out through a disc top.
• Cleansing emulsions and facial toners – thin contents flow out of the disc top quickly, so test the dispensing first.

How the disc top works

The cap has a silver aluminium shell and an inner part made of PP, with a white disc in the centre. Pressing one side of the disc opens a small hole through which the contents flow out when the bottle is squeezed. Pressing the opposite side pushes the disc back and closes the hole. With the disc closed, the contents are protected from drying out and from unwanted leaking during normal use in the bathroom.

Volume and filling

The nominal volume of 300 ml is the volume the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The brimful volume stated in the parameters is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference provides a reserve for the closure and for the expansion of the contents with temperature changes. For this reason, fill to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If the bottle is filled up to the neck, the contents are pushed into the thread when the disc top is screwed on, and the cap becomes sticky.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash and disinfect both the bottle and the cap, and let them dry completely. When refilling, check that the disc holds firmly and closes completely.

Suitability for contact with cosmetic products is declared for the disc top cap. We do not make such a declaration for the bottle itself, so check the compatibility of the material with your specific formulation. The plastic is not intended for aggressive chemicals. For contents with a high proportion of alcohol, concentrated essential oils or solvents, test a small amount and check whether the bottle deforms and whether the contents change their scent.

The set is not approved for contact with food.

For recycling, separate the cap from the bottle; the bottle is made of PET and the disc top of a combination of PP and aluminium. If you want to combine the bottle with a different closure, you will find caps, pumps and sprayers with the same 24/410 neck finish in the Handymade range. When making your own combination, check the seal and dispensing with your specific contents.
