Amber Round Sirup Glass Bottle, 28 mm, Black Smooth Pump, 1 l

This amber glass pharmaceutical bottle with a capacity of 1 l and a black plastic pump is used for filling and dispensing liquid cosmetic products in larger quantities. The dark glass reduces the amount of light reaching the contents, which you will appreciate with oils, liquid soaps or shampoos with natural ingredients that lose their fragrance or colour more quickly in light. Each press of the pump dispenses approximately 1 ml, so the contents are dispensed without opening the bottle and without your hands touching the product.

The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. The bottle itself also has a certificate for direct contact with food; the pump does not, so the set as a whole is intended for cosmetic products.

What it is suitable for

The 1 l size with a pump suits products that are used daily and in larger amounts: liquid hand soap, shower gel, shampoo, body lotion, massage or bath oil, facial cleansing gel. It also serves as a stock bottle in a salon or workshop, from which smaller packaging for sale is filled on an ongoing basis.

• Liquid and medium-thick products – the pump draws up liquids and lighter emulsions. Thicker creams or butters will not pass through it; with thicker textures, we recommend verifying the dispensing with your specific formulation.
• Oil-based products – amber glass slows the changes that light causes in oils and fragrance ingredients.
• Water-based products with a preservative – the closed system with a pump limits the introduction of impurities into the contents, but preservation of the water phase is still necessary.

Filling and capacity

Nominal volume is the amount the bottle is intended for under normal filling. Brimful volume is the physical volume up to the neck and you can find it in the parameters. The difference between them provides a reserve for the pump body with its tube and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Therefore, fill to the nominal volume, not to the brim, otherwise the contents will overflow when the pump is screwed on.

The pump screws onto the PP28S neck thread and the tube is inserted into the bottle during assembly. Before first use, press the pump several times until the tube fills and the pump starts to dispense the contents.

Good to know

Let a hot product cool down first after emulsification or dissolving, and fill only at room temperature. A sudden change in temperature stresses the glass and warm contents may deform the plastic parts of the pump.

The pump is not a closure for transport. If pressed accidentally or under pressure in a parcel, the contents may leak, so a full bottle is transported with a screw closure and the pump is fitted only at the place of use. You can find closures with the same neck type and ready-made combinations in the Handymade range. With your own combination, we recommend verifying tightness, dispensing and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

After washing and disinfection, the bottle can be reused. Before the next filling, rinse the pump with clean water, let it dry and check that the tube is not blocked by residues of the old contents. For recycling, glass belongs with glass and the pump with plastics; separate them before disposal.
