Yes, the packaging can be used repeatedly if proper hygiene principles are followed. Before each new filling, we recommend thoroughly cleaning the bottle and the pump and then disinfecting them with a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example with isopropyl alcohol or denatured plant ethanol. This reduces the risk of microbial contamination and extends the usability of your cosmetic or hygiene formulations.

We recommend first rinsing the pump with warm (not boiling) water and a mild cleaning agent to remove product residues in the suction mechanism. Then it is advisable to spray it with or immerse it in an alcohol-based disinfectant solution and pump it briefly once more so that the disinfectant also reaches the inside of the mechanism. After disinfection, allow the individual parts to dry thoroughly at room temperature and only then use them again for filling. This preserves the smooth operation of the pump and the hygienic safety of the packaging.

The plastic material of the bottle and pump used is not intended for long-term exposure to high temperatures. When in contact with hot water, during boiling or when washing in a dishwasher, the packaging may deform, its dimensional stability may be affected and the sealing of the dosing mechanism may deteriorate. For cleaning, therefore use rather lukewarm to mildly warm water, a mild cleaning agent and subsequent disinfection with an alcohol-based preparation, without aggressive thermal or mechanical conditions.

If you decide not to use the packaging any further, we recommend first completely emptying it and removing any product residues. Then proceed according to the type of material stated in the product parameters – based on this, you will assign it to the appropriate separated waste stream (typically to the plastic container, if the parameters confirm a plastic material). If the bottle and pump are made from several materials, it is ideal to separate the individual parts where possible and sort them according to local recycling rules. Adhering to the recommendations in the product parameters and local guidelines helps to achieve a more efficient recycling process.

To select suitable packaging, you can use the advanced filter, which you will find at the top of the page after clicking on a specific packaging category. With the help of the filter, you can easily narrow down the offer according to the type of neck, size, colour and material of the packaging, so you will quickly find bottles, jars or pots that meet your design and functionality requirements. In this way, you can efficiently compare several solutions and choose the packaging that will best suit your formulation and target group.

This type of bottle is ideal for liquid to slightly viscous products, such as light emulsions, gels or thin creams, for which the pump can ensure smooth and consistent dosing. For thicker formulations, we always recommend performing a trial filling in a smaller amount to verify whether the draw of the pump is sufficient and whether the packaging seals correctly. The test allows you to adjust the viscosity of the recipe or choose another type of packaging before you fill a larger series of products.
