Amber Cosmetic Glass Jar, Shiny Silver Lid & Gasket, 25 ml

The amber glass jar with a volume of 25 ml is supplied as a ready-made set with a silver glossy lid and an inner liner. Amber glass limits the amount of light reaching the contents, so it suits creams and balms containing vegetable oils, extracts or vitamins, which lose their effectiveness faster in light. The small volume suits eye creams, ointments, concentrated face creams, solid perfumes, lip balms or trial samples for customers. The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics.

What the set consists of

• Glass jar – amber glass with a wide neck, from which the contents are easily scooped with a finger or spatula. The wide neck also makes it easier to fill thicker textures.
• Plastic lid – a screw lid made of ABS plastic in a silver glossy finish, with an EPE foam seal inside. When tightened firmly, it closes the jar securely and limits air ingress.
• Inner liner – a thin white disc made of polypropylene (PP), placed directly on the surface of the contents under the lid. During transport it prevents the cream from getting into the thread and the seal, and after opening it protects the surface from impurities.

You therefore do not need to select a closure separately. If you want to combine the jar with a different closure, the Handymade range includes lids with the same neck type as well as ready-made sets. When making your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

What it is suitable for

A volume of 25 ml suits products that are dispensed in small amounts and used up over a longer time:

• Eye and face creams – concentrated emulsions with a higher proportion of active ingredients, where dark glass slows degradation by light.
• Anhydrous balms and ointments – butters, wax balms, ointments with oil extracts. The wide neck makes both pouring and later scooping easier.
• Solid perfumes and lip balms – the small pack matches normal consumption and amber glass protects the fragrance components.
• Samples and test packs – for customers who want to try a product before buying a larger pack.

With the liner in place, the contents are in contact with the glass and the PP liner. The set is intended for cosmetic products; it is not declared for contact with food.

Filling and volume

The nominal volume of 25 ml is the volume for which the jar is designed under normal filling. The total volume up to the neck is higher. The difference provides a reserve for the inner liner, the lid seal and the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. The jar should therefore be filled up to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If it is overfilled, the cream is pushed into the thread and the lid does not seal.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the jar and the lid, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and leave them to dry completely. With water-based emulsions, insufficient drying risks introducing microorganisms into the product. The same procedure applies when reusing the jar. The glass withstands repeated washing and disinfection without any change in appearance; after washing, check the plastic lid and the liner.

Amber glass protects the contents from light, not from heat. Store products with sensitive ingredients away from direct sun and heat even in this packaging.

For recycling, the jar goes with glass, and the lid and liner go with plastics. Separate them from the glass before disposal.
