Product description

A glass dropper bottle with a nominal volume of 100 ml and a black cap with a dropper is a ready-made set for liquid preparations dosed by drops or in small quantities. Glass does not react with the contents and neither absorbs nor passes on scents, making it suitable for blends with essential oils or alcohol.

The 100 ml capacity is well suited to products with higher usage: facial, body and hair oils, beard oils, tonics and cosmetic herbal extracts. It also works for storing your own liquid ingredients and pre-mixed blends from which small amounts are drawn off by drop during production.

Dosing and sealing

The dropper in the cap slows the flow, so the contents can be dispensed drop by drop and the bottle will not spill immediately if knocked over. It works best with thin to medium-viscosity liquids such as aqueous and alcoholic solutions or light vegetable oils. Thick oils and gels flow slowly through it, so it is advisable to test dispensing with the specific formulation beforehand.

The cap screws onto the neck and seals the bottle when tightened. Do not touch the dropper to skin or work surfaces to keep it clean.

Nominal and total volume

Nominal volume is the quantity the bottle is designed to hold under normal filling. Total volume to the brim is the physical capacity up to the neck and is slightly larger. The difference provides clearance for the dropper and for expansion of the contents when temperature changes.

Fill the bottle to the nominal volume, not to the brim. Overfilling causes the dropper to force contents through the thread, leaving the bottle greasy or sticky after closing.

Suitable contents

The set is suitable for contact with cosmetic products; the relevant declaration is listed in the parameters. Glass withstands aqueous, alcoholic and oil-based contents. The cap with dropper is made of polyethylene (PE), which handles common cosmetic liquids well. With concentrated essential oils and solvents, we recommend testing its behaviour under prolonged contact.

The food-contact certification applies to the glass bottle on its own; the cap with dropper does not hold this certification. The complete set is therefore intended for cosmetics, not for food use.

Closures with the same neck type (listed in the parameters) and other ready-made combinations are available in the Handymade range. When building your own combination, we recommend verifying the seal, dosing performance and packaging behaviour with the specific formulation.

What to know before filling

Preparation – before first filling, wash both bottle and cap, sanitise with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and allow to dry completely. Water residues shorten the shelf life of anhydrous oil blends.
Glass and heat – glass does not tolerate sudden temperature changes. Allow hot contents to cool before pouring into a cold bottle.
Cap and heat – the plastic cap with dropper should not be boiled or dried at high temperature; alcohol is sufficient for sanitising it.
Labelling – labels adhere well to dry, degreased glass. The dimensions needed for label design are listed in the parameters.
Recycling – glass and the plastic cap are sorted separately.

Frequently asked questions

Can the 100 ml glass dropper bottle be used for food?

The 100 ml glass dropper bottle set is not approved for food contact. The food-contact certification applies only to the glass bottle itself; the black cap with dropper is declared for cosmetic use only. The complete set is therefore intended for cosmetic products. For food use, the bottle needs to be combined with a closure that carries its own food-contact certification.

To what level should the 100 ml dropper bottle be filled?

The bottle should be filled to the nominal volume, i.e. 100 ml, not all the way to the neck. The headspace is a reserve for the dropper, which reaches into the neck when the cap is closed, and for expansion of the contents at higher temperatures. An overfilled bottle will push some of the contents into the thread during closing and become contaminated on the outside.

Is the 100 ml dropper bottle suitable for essential oils and alcoholic preparations?

The glass bottle itself is suitable for essential oils and alcoholic preparations; glass does not react with them. The cap with dropper is made of polyethylene, which tolerates common cosmetic blends including diluted essential oils and alcoholic solutions. With concentrated essential oils and long-term storage, we recommend checking in advance whether the plastic softens and whether the closure still seals.

Can the glass dropper bottle be reused?

Yes, the glass bottle can be reused. Before refilling, it should be washed, sanitised with alcohol and allowed to dry thoroughly. The cap with dropper is harder to clean and the plastic may retain the scent of the previous contents, so when changing the type of preparation we recommend replacing it with a new one.

Is the dropper on the 100 ml bottle suitable for thick oils too?

The dropper on the 100 ml bottle is only partially suited to thick oils. It is designed primarily for thin to medium-viscosity liquids that flow through it evenly. Thick oils, gels and viscous serums flow slowly or not at all. For such preparations, a different closure with the same neck type is more practical, and it is advisable to test dispensing before filling an entire batch.
