Clear Plastic Bottle, White Spray With Matte Silver Collar, 100 ml

This set of a clear PET bottle, 100 ml, and a white mini trigger sprayer with a silver matte collar is used for filling and applying thin cosmetic preparations as a fine mist. It is suitable for facial toners, hydrosols, refreshing face and body mists, hair sprays and alcohol-based toners, in other words for anything that is sprayed directly onto the skin or hair. The clear plastic shows the contents and their colour, and PET is light and does not break when dropped, so this set is often chosen for handbags, travel or customer samples. Both the bottle and the sprayer are declared suitable for contact with cosmetic products.

How the set works

The sprayer screws onto the bottle neck with a 24/410 thread, the dip tube reaches the bottom of the bottle, and the contents are pumped by pressing the head. One press releases approximately 0.12 ml of the preparation as a fine mist, which is enough to cover the face or a smaller area of skin evenly without dripping. The white plastic head with a matte aluminium collar looks simple and clean.

The mini trigger sprayer is designed for low-viscosity aqueous liquids. It will not disperse gels, emulsions, thicker serums or pure oils into a mist: they come out of the nozzle as a stream or gradually clog it.

What it is suitable for

• Facial toners and hydrosols – aqueous preparations without thickeners, applied by spraying directly onto the face or onto a cotton pad.
• Refreshing mists – light blends of water, hydrosols and water-soluble active ingredients for freshening up during the day or after sun exposure.
• Hair sprays – thin conditioning or styling sprays, where a fine mist makes it easier to distribute the product evenly through the hair.
• Alcohol-based toners and colognes – the sprayer also dispenses preparations containing alcohol. We recommend checking how the PET bottle behaves with your specific formulation by filling a test bottle.
• Samples and travel packs – the 100 ml volume and unbreakable material are suited to smaller portions for customers or for travelling.

Nominal volume and total volume

The nominal volume of 100 ml is the volume the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The total brimful volume listed in the parameters is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference between them is a reserve for the dip tube and the body of the sprayer and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. The bottle should therefore be filled to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If it is filled up to the neck, part of the contents will be pushed out when the sprayer is screwed on, and the packaging may not seal.

Good to know

Before the first filling, we recommend washing the bottle and the sprayer, disinfecting them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and letting them dry completely. Also pump a little of the disinfectant solution through the sprayer so that the dip tube and the nozzle are treated, and then let it dry without any liquid in it.

PET is not intended for hot filling. Fill aqueous and alcohol-based preparations only after they have cooled to room temperature, otherwise the bottle may deform. Do not expose the bottle to aggressive chemicals. For formulations with a higher proportion of essential oils, fragrances or solvents, we recommend filling one bottle as a test and observing it for several weeks. The set is intended for cosmetics and is not approved for contact with food.

Clear packaging does not protect the contents from light. Preparations containing light-sensitive ingredients, for example vitamin C or some plant extracts, are better filled into amber or blue packaging, or the clear bottle should be stored away from direct light.

The set can be used repeatedly. When changing the contents, rinse the bottle with warm water, pump clean water through the sprayer to rinse the dip tube and the nozzle, and let everything dry. For recycling, unscrew the sprayer from the bottle. The bottle is made of PET and the sprayer of polypropylene with an aluminium collar, so they are sorted separately. You will find closures with the same neck type and other ready-made bottle and closure combinations in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend checking the seal, the dispensing and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.
