Recycled Plastic Bottle, Transparent Disc Top, 250 ml

This set, consisting of a clear recycled PET bottle with a volume of 250 ml and a disc top cap with a 24/410 neck finish, is designed for filling liquid and semi-liquid cosmetic products that are dispensed by squeezing the bottle. The bottle is light and unbreakable, so it suits the shower and bathroom, where glass is often a risk. Through the clear plastic you can see the colour of the product and how much of it is left. Both components have the same neck type, so the cap fits the bottle without any further adjustment.

What the set is suited for

The 250 ml volume is a typical size for the shower or washbasin, that is, for products that are used every day and are used up quickly.

• Shower gels and liquid soaps – one-handed dispensing through the opening in the disc, without unscrewing.
• Shampoos and conditioners – thinner products flow smoothly, thicker ones more slowly, depending on viscosity.
• Body lotions and lighter emulsions – if they can be squeezed out of the bottle; thick creams are better suited to a jar or a bottle with a pump.
• Massage and body oils – the disc top allows dispensing in small amounts without dripping down the neck.

How to dispense and fill

The disc top cap is opened by pressing one side of the disc. The other side lifts and reveals the opening through which the product is dispensed by squeezing the bottle. Pressing the disc back closes the opening. Nothing is unscrewed, so the cap does not get lost and the inside of the bottle stays covered during normal use.

When filling, distinguish between the nominal volume and the brimful volume. The nominal volume is the amount the packaging is intended for under normal filling. The brimful volume is the physical capacity of the bottle up to the neck. The difference forms a reserve for the cap and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. Fill to the nominal volume, not to the brim.

Good to know

Before the first filling, wash the bottle and the cap, disinfect them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let them dry completely. The same procedure applies to repeated use. Both components can be used again after thorough washing.

Clear plastic does not protect the contents from light. Store light-sensitive products, for example those with a higher proportion of essential oils or with unstable active ingredients, away from direct sunlight, or choose dark packaging for them.

Do not expose PET and PP to aggressive chemicals. For products with a high proportion of essential oils or alcohol, we recommend testing in advance how the bottle and cap behave with the specific formulation. Do not pour hot products into the bottle; let them cool down before filling.

The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetic products. It is not intended for contact with food. You will find the declaration of conformity with the product.

Closures with the same 24/410 neck type and other ready-made combinations of bottle and closure are available in the Handymade range. If you combine the parts yourself, we recommend checking the tightness, the dispensing and the behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

The bottle is made of PET and the cap of PP. Both materials belong in plastic recycling; separate them before disposal and rinse the bottle.
