Yes, the container can be used repeatedly if handled correctly and if hygiene principles are observed. Before each new filling, the bottle must be thoroughly cleaned and then disinfected with a suitable preparation, for example isopropyl alcohol IPA 99 % or plant-based ethanol Ethanol 96 % denatured. After drying, the container is ready for further safe use with a new filling.

We recommend rinsing the bottle with lukewarm water and a mild cleansing agent and using a soft brush or applicator brush to remove product residues. Then the container must be thoroughly rinsed with clean water, left to dry, and only afterwards disinfected with a suitable alcohol-based preparation. The PET material should not be exposed to high temperatures, so do not wash the bottle in a dishwasher and do not boil it, in order to avoid deformation.

No, the PET bottle is not intended for filling with hot or freshly cooked products, since the material is not designed for long-term exposure to high temperatures. Filling should only be carried out after the contents have cooled to room temperature, in order to prevent deformation of the container, weakening of the walls, or deterioration of the closure tightness.

If you decide not to reuse the container, we recommend recycling it in accordance with local waste-sorting rules, according to the type of material specified in the product parameters. Before handing it over for separate collection, empty the bottle as much as possible, rinse out any remaining contents, and separate any different materials (for example the closure). In this way you support efficient processing of the plastic in the recycling process.

When selecting a suitable container, we recommend using the extended filter, which you will find at the top of the page after clicking on the respective packaging-material category. In the extended filter you can conveniently choose a container according to several parameters, such as neck type, size, colour, or material. In this way you quickly narrow down the offer to containers that best match your product and the planned method of use.

When choosing a closure, pump, or sprayer, it is important to check the compatibility of the neck type and the recommended area of use of the given accessory. In the product parameters on Handymade you will find information on compatibility that helps to prevent leakage or unsuitable dosing. Nevertheless, we always recommend performing your own test with the specific formulation to verify correct functionality, sealing, and comfort when using the final product.
