Amber Glass Bottle, Silver White Spray, 50 ml

Amber glass medicine bottle, white and silver fine mist sprayer, 50 ml

A ready-made set for your own sprays: an amber glass medicine bottle with a volume of 50 ml and a screwed-on white and silver fine mist sprayer that disperses the contents into a fine mist. Amber glass filters light, so the set suits contents that are sensitive to light: hydrosols, facial toners, hair sprays, refreshing waters with essential oils or alcohol-based disinfectant sprays. The 50 ml volume suits test batches as well as handbag and travel sizes.

Both the bottle and the sprayer are declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. Only the glass bottle on its own has a certificate for direct food contact; the set as a whole is intended for cosmetic products.

What the set is suited for

• Hydrosols and facial toners – low-viscosity water-based contents that the sprayer disperses evenly without dripping.
• Hair sprays and refreshers – light water-based or water-alcohol solutions for hair, textiles or air.
• Disinfectant and hygiene sprays – alcohol-based solutions, where the glass does not react with the contents.
• Samples and travel sizes – a small volume for testing a formulation or for travelling without a large bottle.

The sprayer works with thin liquids. Thick emulsions, gels or heavy oils will not pass through the nozzle or will clog it. For these, choose a bottle with a pump or a dropper.

How it dispenses

One press releases approximately 0.14 ml of the contents, so 50 ml lasts for roughly 350 sprays. The tube reaches the bottom of the bottle and draws up the contents down to the last millilitres. After filling, press the sprayer several times without product until the tube fills and the mist becomes even.

Nominal and total volume

The nominal volume of 50 ml is the amount the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The brimful capacity given in the parameters is the physical volume up to the neck. The difference between them is a reserve for the sprayer tube, the air above the liquid and any expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill the bottle to the nominal volume. If it is filled to the brim, part of the contents will overflow when the sprayer is screwed on.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the bottle and the sprayer, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let them dry completely.

Glass tolerates heat, but do not pour hot contents into the bottle. A sudden temperature difference can crack the glass, and the sprayer is made of plastic and aluminium, which are damaged by high temperatures. For contents with a higher proportion of alcohol or essential oils, we recommend checking how the sprayer behaves with your specific formulation on a test filling.

The set can be used repeatedly. When changing the contents, wash the bottle, rinse the sprayer with clean water and empty the tube with several presses, then disinfect both parts. After each filling, check the tightness by turning the bottle upside down.

Once empty, amber glass goes into glass recycling. The sprayer is made of polypropylene and aluminium; before recycling, unscrew it and sort it separately from the bottle. You will find other closures with the same type of neck and other ready-made packaging + closure combinations in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness and dispensing with your specific formulation.
