Clear Glass Bottle, White Nasal Spray, 10 ml

Clear glass medicine bottle with nasal sprayer, 10 ml

A ready-to-use set for small volumes of thin aqueous solutions applied as a fine nasal mist. The clear glass medicine bottle with a nominal volume of 10 ml shows how much content is left, and the white pump with nasal applicator releases the same small dose with every press. The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. Neither the bottle nor the pump is approved for contact with food.

Both the bottle and the pump have an 18/410 neck finish, so they fit together without any adjustment. The pump screws onto the neck, the dip tube reaches into the contents, and after the first few presses, which fill the mechanism, it dispenses evenly.

Suitable uses

• Saline and isotonic solutions – thin aqueous liquids without particles, which are sprayed evenly through a small nozzle.
• Hydrosols and aqueous extracts – low-viscosity contents, where a small volume and more frequent application are expected.
• Samples and travel packs – the 10 ml volume takes up no space in a bag or a cosmetic pouch.

Thicker liquids, solutions with a thickener or oil-based contents may not form an even mist through the nasal applicator, and the nozzle may clog. We recommend checking how your specific formulation behaves in a single bottle before you fill a larger batch.

How the set dispenses and seals

With one press, the pump releases approximately 0.12 ml. The mechanism consists of a plastic body with a steel spring and a dip tube that draws the contents from the bottom of the bottle. The dip tube is supplied longer than the height of the bottle so that it can be adjusted. Before fitting the pump for the first time, trim it so that its end almost touches the bottom. This way almost all of the contents are used up and the pump does not draw in air before the bottle is empty.

Clear glass does not filter light. For light-sensitive contents, such as solutions with plant extracts, bear in mind that the bottle will not protect them from light, and store it away from direct sunlight.

Nominal and total volume

The nominal volume of 10 ml is the volume the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The brimful volume is the physical volume up to the neck, and you can find it in the parameters. The difference between them serves as a reserve for the dip tube of the pump, which takes up part of the space, and for the movement of the contents when the closure is fitted. Fill to the nominal volume, not to the brim. An overfilled bottle overflows when the pump is screwed on, and the contents get onto the thread, where they dry and spoil the seal.

Good to know

Before first filling, wash the bottle, disinfect it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let it dry completely. Rinse the pump with clean water, or with an ethanol solution, and press it several times to push the remaining liquid out of the mechanism. The glass withstands hot water; do not expose the plastic parts of the pump to boiling water or solvents.

The set can be used repeatedly. The glass bottle can be washed and disinfected again each time; with the pump, check whether the spring and nozzle dispense the same way after cleaning as at the start. When the mist turns into a stream or dripping, the mechanism is clogged and it is worth replacing it.

The neck of the bottle has an 18/410 neck finish, so other closures with the same thread from the Handymade range can also be fitted. For your own combination, we recommend checking the seal and dispensing with your specific formulation.

The bottle belongs in glass waste; the pump is made of plastics and steel, so separate it from the bottle before disposal.
