Yes, this packaging can be used repeatedly with proper handling and adherence to hygiene principles. Before each new filling, the bottle and cap must be thoroughly cleaned and then disinfected with a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example using the products IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. After disinfection, allow the packaging to dry completely at room temperature. At the same time, bear in mind that this is PET material, which is not suitable for cleaning in a dishwasher or for boiling, in order to avoid deformation of the packaging.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, it is recommended to recycle it according to the material designation indicated in the product parameters. As this is plastic packaging made from PET, after thoroughly emptying and rinsing it, dispose of it in the appropriate container intended for plastic collection. The cap is often made from another type of plastic, so you can separate it when sorting and follow the local waste sorting rules. Correct recycling helps to minimise the amount of waste and increases the rate of raw material reuse.

This transparent plastic bottle is ideal especially for various water-based and slightly viscous preparations, such as facial and body toners, hydrolats, hair lotions, gentle cleansing solutions or air fresheners. Always assess the suitability of use according to the composition of your formulation and the storage recommendations for the individual raw materials. For more aggressive or highly concentrated substances, we recommend carrying out a test of the compatibility of the material with the contents in a smaller trial batch.

PET packaging is not intended for filling with hot products or for long-term exposure to elevated temperatures. On contact with high temperature, the bottle walls may deform, its standing stability may worsen and the functionality of the closure may decrease. For this reason, it is not recommended to boil the packaging, sterilise it with hot steam or wash it in a dishwasher. For cleaning and disinfection, use lukewarm water with a mild detergent and then a suitable disinfecting alcohol-based preparation according to the instructions for use.

On Handymade.sk, when choosing suitable packaging you can use the advanced filter located at the top of the page after clicking on the relevant category of packaging materials. Using the filter, you can clearly select the required parameters, such as type and neck diameter, size, colour or packaging material. This allows you to quickly find bottles, medicine bottles, jars, pots and other containers that will best meet the requirements of your product and the filling technology.

Before starting filling, we recommend preparing a small trial batch in which you verify the behaviour of the packaging in contact with your product. Fill the bottle with a smaller amount of formulation, close it with the chosen type of closure or dispenser and observe the tightness of the joint, the stability of the material, any changes in the appearance of the plastic and the functionality of the dispensing. Then store the packaging for several days under the conditions planned for the finished product (temperature, light, handling). In this way, you will determine in time whether the given combination of packaging, cap and contents is fully satisfactory.
