Clear Plastic Bottle, Black Lotion Pump With Matte Gold Collar, 250 ml

The bottle with dispenser is intended for various types of liquid to medium-viscosity products such as body lotions, lighter emulsions, shower gels or shampoos. For very thick creams or balms we recommend performing a dosing test on a small sample and verifying whether the product passes through the pump smoothly and without excessive pressure.

The packaging can be reused if hygienic principles are observed. Before each new filling it is necessary to thoroughly clean and disinfect the bottle and the dispenser, ideally using a suitable alcohol, for example IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. This minimises the risk of microbial contamination as well as transfer of fragrance or colour from the previous product. We also always recommend testing the compatibility of the new product with the material of the bottle and the pump on a small trial amount.

We recommend verifying compatibility by filling a smaller amount of product into one bottle and monitoring it over several weeks. Observe changes in the appearance of the plastic, the sealing of the thread, the functionality of the dispenser, any leakage and changes in the consistency or fragrance of the product. Pay particular attention to formulations with a higher content of alcohol, essential oils or active ingredients which may affect the stability of the packaging and the function of the pump.

We recommend rinsing the bottle after emptying with warm (not boiling) water and a mild cleaning agent, then rinsing thoroughly and allowing it to dry completely. Before refilling, it is advisable to disinfect the inner surface and the pump mechanism with a suitable alcohol, for example the products IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based. We do not recommend long-term exposure to very hot water, boiling or washing in a dishwasher in order to avoid damaging the surface and the seals of the dispenser.

If you decide not to reuse the packaging, we recommend recycling it responsibly according to the material specified in the product parameters on the Handymade website. Before handing it over for sorted collection, remove any product residues and, if necessary, separate the individual parts of the packaging (bottle, pump, possible tube) according to the type of material and local recycling rules. By following the instructions in the parameter table and local regulations you contribute to efficient recycling and waste reduction.

The simplest solution is to use the advanced filter in the packaging material categories on Handymade. After clicking on the relevant category you will find, at the top of the page, the option to filter according to several parameters – especially neck type, size, colour and material. This enables you to quickly narrow down the selection to packaging that will match your product both technically and visually and will allow you to choose a suitable combination of bottle, closure and dosing.
