The glass packaging is generally very stable with respect to components such as alcohol, essential oils and other active substances, which makes it a suitable choice for various formulations. However, we recommend always carrying out your own stability/formulation test on a small trial sample in order to verify the behaviour of the specific recipe over time and to ensure optimal compatibility of the contents with the spray dispenser.

The packaging can be reused multiple times if hygiene principles are observed. Before each new filling, the bottle must be thoroughly rinsed, cleaned of residues of the original contents and then disinfected with a suitable alcohol-based product (for example products available on Handymade: IPA 99% isopropyl alcohol or Ethanol 96% denatured plant-based). After disinfection, allow all parts to dry completely at room temperature and only then refill them.

For the optimal function of the spray dispenser, it is important that the contents do not contain larger undissolved particles that could clog the nozzle. It is recommended to use clear or well-filtered solutions and, after filling, to press the bottle several times to vent the system. When changing the formulation, it is advisable to test the dosing on a small trial batch and verify the uniformity of the spray pattern and comfort during application.

If you do not plan to reuse the bottle, we recommend recycling it according to the material composition stated in the product parameters. The glass part can usually be sorted into the appropriate glass container, while the plastic and metal components of the spray dispenser should be separated and sorted according to local waste management regulations. Before placing the packaging in sorted waste, rinse it to remove product residues so as not to contaminate other waste.

On Handymade you can use the advanced filter located at the top of the page after clicking on the selected packaging category. With it, you can easily choose suitable packaging according to parameters such as neck type, size, colour or material. Simply select the desired filters step by step and only those bottles, medicine bottles, jars or other containers that meet your criteria will be displayed.

The compact glass packaging with spray dispenser is also practical for carrying in a handbag or cosmetic bag, for example for toners, disinfectant solutions or refreshing sprays. During transport, we recommend tightening the spray dispenser firmly and, if necessary, placing the bottle in a case or pouch that protects it from impacts. Always make sure that the packaging is properly closed and stored in an upright position in order to minimize the risk of liquid leakage.
