Yes, the bottle with dispenser can be used repeatedly, as long as you follow basic hygiene principles. Before each new filling, the packaging needs to be thoroughly cleaned and then disinfected with a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example using IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or 96 % denatured plant ethanol. Disinfection helps to minimise microbiological risks and to protect the stability of your cosmetic products.

If you decide not to use the packaging further, we recommend first emptying it and removing any product residues. Then sort it according to the material specified in the product parameters and the recycling recommendations on the Handymade website. The bottle and the dispenser are usually sorted into the appropriate container for plastic, and it is advisable to separate the individual parts where possible. By following local waste sorting rules, you contribute to the effective recycling of packaging materials.

The pump bottle is ideal for liquid and semi-liquid cosmetic preparations that need to be dispensed in smaller amounts and hygienically. It is suitable for body and face milks, soaps, shampoos, conditioners, cleansing emulsions or massage preparations. The dispenser helps to keep the product protected from direct contact with the hands and limits air access to the container, which is an advantage for the stability of the formulation.

We recommend filling the bottle slowly so that excessive bubbles do not form in the liquid, which could temporarily affect the function of the dispenser. After filling, check that the dispenser is firmly screwed on and that the tube sits properly on the bottom of the container. Before first use, the pump must be pressed several times so that the system fills with the product. For more viscous formulations, it is advisable to perform a short dosing test and, if necessary, adjust the viscosity of the product or the filling method.

To select suitable packaging, you can use the advanced filter that you will find at the top of the page after clicking on the desired packaging category. The filter makes it possible to sort products according to several parameters – especially according to the type and size of the neck, total volume or bottle size, colour and material. Thanks to this, you can quickly display only those containers that correspond to your formulation and preferred design and more easily find an optimal solution for a specific product.
