Yes, this glass bottle can be reused with correct handling and adherence to hygiene principles. Before each new filling, the packaging must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected in order to reduce the risk of microbial contamination and impact on product stability. For disinfection we recommend using a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example IPA 99% isopropyl alcohol or ethanol 96% denatured, plant-based, and allowing the bottle to dry thoroughly before refilling.

If you decide not to reuse the bottle, we recommend emptying it as far as possible and removing any product residues. The glass body of the bottle belongs in the container designated for glass according to local recycling rules. A closure made of another material (for example plastic or metal) should be separated and sorted into the appropriate collection container according to its material, as recommended by the waste sorting system in your municipality. By following these steps, you support efficient material recycling and waste reduction.

The easiest way to find suitable packaging for a specific product is to use the advanced filter in the packaging categories. The advanced filter is located at the top of the page after clicking on the selected category (for example bottles, pharmaceutical bottles, jars). In it you can filter according to parameters such as neck type, size, colour or packaging material, which allows you to quickly narrow down the selection to a few relevant options and then choose the exact type according to your requirements.

Glass bottles are generally very suitable for packaging products containing oils, perfume and aromatic components, since glass is a stable material with low interaction with the contents. However, for formulations with a high proportion of essential oils or active substances we recommend carrying out trial filling and storage in a smaller quantity to verify the long-term stability of the product’s fragrance, colour and viscosity in the specific combination of packaging + formulation.

Before first filling, we recommend visually inspecting the bottle, cleaning it and, depending on the nature of the product, also disinfecting it with a suitable alcohol. It is important not to fill in the product when it is too hot in order to prevent thermal shock to the glass, and not to exceed the recommended fill level so that there is space for safe closure. After filling, check that the closure is properly screwed on and that no leakage of the contents occurs when the bottle is turned upside down or shaken. In this way you verify the functionality of the chosen combination of packaging and closure.

Transparent glass does not limit light transmission, therefore for products that are highly sensitive to light we recommend paying attention to a suitable storage method – in a shaded place, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. If you are working with highly photosensitive formulations, it is advisable to consider alternative types of packaging with higher light protection or to complement the product with a protective secondary packaging (box, packaging tube, etc.).
