Amber Round Sirup Glass Bottle, PP28, White Safety Cap, 150 ml

The 150 ml glass medicine bottle with a white safety cap 28/410 is intended for contents that need to be protected from light and must not be opened by accident. Amber glass filters light, so it suits vegetable and massage oils, face lotions, alcohol tinctures and herbal extracts. The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics and is also approved for direct food contact, so you can also store homemade oils, syrups or flavoured vinegars in it.

The safety cap opens by pressing and turning at the same time, which makes it harder for small children to open. This type of closure makes sense for concentrated, alcohol-based or otherwise sensitive contents that should not be freely accessible in the home.

What the set includes

• Glass medicine bottle, 150 ml – amber glass, PP28S neck finish, intended for filling and pouring out liquid contents.
• Safety cap 28/410 – white plastic closure made of PP and PE that fits the neck of this bottle.

What it is suitable for

A volume of 150 ml suits products that are dispensed by pouring them out or into the palm of your hand. These include massage and body oils, hair oils, face lotions and toners without a sprayer, bath oils and mouthwashes. Outside cosmetics, homemade uses include tinctures, alcohol extracts, syrups and macerated oils.

Glass does not react with alcohol or essential oils, so the bottle is also used for blends with a higher proportion of essential oils or for alcohol bases. The cap is plastic. For contents with a high concentration of essential oils or with solvents, we recommend testing how the seal behaves on one piece before you fill a larger quantity.

Nominal and total volume

The nominal volume is the quantity the bottle is intended for in normal filling. The total brimful volume is the physical volume up to the neck, and you will find it in the parameters. The difference between them forms a reserve for the closure and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill up to the nominal volume. If you fill the bottle to the brim, the contents are pushed towards the thread when you close it, and the cap does not seal as it should.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the bottle and the cap, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let them dry completely. Residual water in the packaging shortens the shelf life of anhydrous products and oils.

Glass tolerates heat, but a sudden change in temperature damages it. Do not pour hot contents into a cold bottle; let them cool to at least lukewarm first. For syrups and extracts that are filled warm, warm the bottle beforehand with warm water.

The bottle can be reused; after washing and drying it is ready for the next filling. Check that the seal in the cap is not deformed or soaked with the previous contents, especially after oils with a strong scent. The glass and the cap are made of different materials, so separate them before disposal.

Closures with the same neck type, stated in the parameters, and other ready-made packaging and closure combinations can be found in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend testing the tightness and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.
