Amber Round Sirup Glass Bottle, 28 mm, White Safety Cap, 200 ml

The amber glass medicine bottle with a capacity of 200 ml and a white 28 mm safety cap is supplied as a ready-made set for liquid preparations that need to be protected from light and from being opened by small children. Amber glass reduces light transmission, so it is mainly filled with herbal tinctures, oil blends with essential oils, massage and bath oils, toners and facial waters. Two hundred millilitres is enough for a several-week supply of a homemade product, and in the workshop the bottle also serves as a storage container for blends in progress.

Both the bottle and the cap are approved for direct food contact, so the whole set is also suitable for homemade syrups, herbal oils for the kitchen, vinegars and infusions. Both components are also declared suitable for contact with cosmetics.

What the set is suitable for

• Alcohol tinctures and infusions – glass does not react with alcohol, and the amber colour slows the breakdown of light-sensitive substances and the fading of natural dyes.
• Oil blends with essential oils – more concentrated blends belong in glass, which does not react with them.
• Toners, facial waters and hair rinses – water-based preparations that are poured into the palm or onto a cotton pad and do not need a pump.
• Homemade syrups, vinegars and oils – after thorough washing, the same set can be used in the kitchen one time and for massage oil the next.
• Preparations in households with children – anything that should not be freely accessible to a child, from warming massage oils to alcohol tinctures.

Safety cap

The white cap with a 28/410 neck finish is a child safety closure. It opens only after pressing down towards the bottle while turning. When turned freely, the outer shell spins without engaging and the thread does not release. An adult can open it without much effort, whereas a small child usually cannot.

The cap is made of plastic (PP and PE) and fits the PP28S neck of the bottle directly, without an adapter. When closing it, tighten it until the mechanism clicks. Only then is the safety function active and the closure sealed.

Nominal and total volume

The nominal volume of 200 ml is the volume the bottle is intended for in normal filling. The total brimful volume, stated in the parameters, is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference between them is a reserve for the cap and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill to the nominal volume. If filled to the brim, the contents would overflow when closing and would press on the seal when warmed.

Good to know

• Preparation before first filling – wash the bottle and the cap, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let them dry completely. Residual water does not belong in water-based or oil-based preparations.
• Reuse – the glass withstands repeated washing and disinfection. With each new filling, check that the cap still seals after clicking shut and that the mechanism is not worn.
• Glass and heat – a sudden change in temperature can crack the glass. Let warm infusions and syrups cool before filling, and do not place a cold bottle on a hot surface.
• Other closures – closures with the same neck type as stated in the parameters, and other ready-made combinations, can be found in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness and behaviour of the closure with your specific formulation.
• Recycling – the emptied bottle goes into glass, the unscrewed plastic cap into plastics.
