Product description

A blue plastic bottle with a nominal volume of 200 ml and a matte white flip-top cap is a ready-to-use set for liquid and gel cosmetics dispensed by squeezing the bottle: shower gels, shampoos, conditioners, body lotions, and liquid soaps. The cap opens and closes with one hand, and its lid stays attached to the closure so it won't get lost in the shower or by the sink.

The bottle is made of PET, a lightweight plastic that won't shatter like glass if dropped. It is therefore suitable for the bathroom, travel, and shipping finished products. The blue colour with the matte white cap gives the packaging a clean, bathroom-ready look. Both the bottle and the cap are declared as suitable for contact with cosmetic products.

Which products is the set suitable for

The flip-top cap dispenses through a small opening, so it works best with medium-viscosity products that flow but do not pour out on their own.

Shower gels and liquid soaps – squeezing the bottle delivers an appropriate dose and the opening can be snapped shut even with a wet hand.
Shampoos and conditioners – a bottle of this size is comfortable to hold while washing hair.
Body lotions and thinner emulsions – thinner O/W emulsions dispense cleanly; thick creams and butters are better suited to a jar.
Massage and body oils – oil flows more quickly, so simply tilting the bottle is enough and the dose can be controlled with gentle pressure.
Micellar and facial waters – very thin liquids flow through the opening quickly; a spray or pump dispenser gives more precise dosing.

Dispensing and leak-tightness

The dose is controlled by the force of the squeeze, which suits PET walls well: they return to their original shape once released. The snapped-shut lid seals the dispensing opening. Before carrying in a bag or shipping, it is advisable to verify leak-tightness with the specific product, especially for thin liquids and oils.

It is worth testing the product consistency directly in the bottle before filling the full batch. If the gel comes out with difficulty or gets stuck in the opening, slightly reducing the viscosity will help; if it flows on its own, a different closure type is more appropriate.

Closures with the same neck type (listed in the product parameters) and other ready-made combinations are available from Handymade. When creating your own combination, we recommend verifying the dispensing behaviour and how the packaging performs with your specific formulation.

Nominal and total volume

Nominal volume is the amount the bottle is designed for under normal filling conditions. Total volume to the brim is the physical capacity up to the neck and is slightly larger. The difference serves as a reserve for the closure and for expansion of the contents with temperature changes. The bottle should therefore be filled to the nominal volume, not to the brim. Overfilling causes product to be pushed into the thread when closing, and it may spurt out when first opened.

Useful things to know

Preparation before first filling – wash both the bottle and cap with warm water and washing-up liquid, rinse, disinfect with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol, and allow to dry completely. Residual water inside the packaging unnecessarily burdens the preservation of the product.
Labelling – labels adhere best to a dry and degreased surface. Bottle dimensions needed for label design are listed in the product parameters.
Contact with food – the food-contact certification applies to the bottle alone. The set with the flip-top cap as a whole is intended for cosmetic use.
Recycling – PET is among the commonly recycled plastics; empty and rinsed packaging belongs in the sorted plastic waste collection.

PET deforms under heat. Fill the product only once it has cooled down, at most lukewarm, and do not boil or sterilise the bottle with hot water or in an oven.

Frequently asked questions

Which products is the 200 ml plastic bottle with a flip-top cap suitable for?

It is primarily suitable for liquid and gel cosmetics dispensed by squeezing the bottle: shower gels, shampoos, conditioners, liquid soaps, and thinner body lotions. It can also be used for body and massage oils. Thick creams and butters are difficult to push through the small opening, and very thin liquids flow out too quickly.

Is the plastic bottle with a flip-top cap suitable for food?

As a set, no — it is intended for cosmetic use. The food-contact certification covers only the PET bottle itself; the flip-top cap is declared solely as suitable for contact with cosmetic products. For food use, the bottle must be paired with a closure that has its own confirmation of suitability for food contact.

Can the PET bottle be filled with a hot product?

No, the PET bottle is not intended for hot filling. At elevated temperatures the material softens, the bottle may deform and lose its seal at the thread. Emulsions and gels manufactured using heat are filled only after cooling, when they are at most lukewarm. The bottle should likewise not be cleaned with boiling water; isopropyl alcohol or ethanol is sufficient for disinfection.

Is the PET bottle suitable for oils and products containing alcohol?

Yes, PET generally tolerates common cosmetic oils and formulations with a lower alcohol content without any change in shape or appearance. Undiluted essential oils, acetone, and strong solvents that can damage plastic should not be stored in a plastic bottle. For formulations with a higher content of essential oils or ethanol, we recommend leaving a sample in the bottle for several weeks and monitoring for changes.

Can the plastic bottle with a flip-top cap be reused?

Yes, after thorough cleaning it can be refilled. The process is the same as before the first filling: washing with warm water and washing-up liquid, disinfection with alcohol, and complete drying. Particular attention should be paid to the dispensing opening and the lid hinge, where product residue tends to accumulate. A scratched, deformed, or odorous bottle is better discarded.
