Before first use, we recommend thoroughly cleaning the bottle and cap to remove dust and any production residues. It is then advisable to disinfect the packaging with a suitable alcohol solution, for example isopropyl alcohol or ethanol intended for this purpose. In the range you will find, for example, IPA 99 % and plant-derived ethanol in the raw materials category. After cleaning and disinfection, allow the packaging to dry completely at room temperature and only then proceed to fill it with the finished product.

Yes, the glass packaging can be reused if handled correctly and if hygiene principles are followed. Before each new filling, the bottle and cap must always be thoroughly cleaned and then disinfected, for example using isopropyl alcohol (/ipa-99-isopropyl-alkohol-1-l/) or denatured plant ethanol (/etanol-96-denaturovany-rastlinny-1-l/). Only after the disinfected parts have completely dried do we recommend refilling the packaging. When changing the type of product (for example from an oil-based to a water-based product), it is advisable to carry out more thorough cleaning and also consider replacing the closure.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, we recommend recycling it in accordance with local waste-sorting regulations. After adequate rinsing, the glass part of the bottle can be placed in a container designated for glass, provided this is recommended by recycling rules in your country or region. The cap with safety lock (made of plastic material) is normally placed in a container for plastic waste. To determine the correct method of disposal and sorting, always also refer to the material information stated in the parameters of the specific product on the product page and to local waste regulations.

The glass bottle with safety-lock cap is ideal for smaller volumes of concentrated preparations where dosing accuracy and protection of the contents are important. These can include facial and hair serums, oil blends, special active concentrates, intensive treatments or test samples of finished products. Due to the inert nature of glass, it is generally suitable for both water-based and oil-based systems; for each new formulation, however, we recommend performing your own compatibility test, especially if the product contains a higher proportion of acids, solvents or atypical active substances.

When choosing suitable packaging, we recommend using the advanced filter, which you will find at the top of the page after clicking on the selected packaging category. Using the filter, you can clearly sort packaging according to several parameters, such as neck type and size, overall size of the container, colour or material. This allows you to quickly find bottles, jars, vials or other packaging materials that will best match the properties of your product and the desired visual appearance of the entire product line.
