Plastic bottle, vial, clear, plastic safety cap, 18 mm white, type 2, 10 ml

The 10 ml bottle set made of clear PET with a white tamper-evident cap is a small sealable container for cosmetics and food products that shows at a glance whether it has already been opened. It is suitable wherever you need to divide a small quantity into a practical package: serum and facial oil samples, travel-size containers, tinctures, herbal drops, essences, homemade syrups or flavoured oils.

Clear PET shows the contents and their colour, is lightweight and break-resistant, so it fits safely into a handbag, backpack or sample shipment. The screw cap tightens easily by hand, and its tamper-evident seal gives the customer assurance that the package has not been opened since filling. The entire set is approved for direct food contact and declared suitable for cosmetic products. Declarations of conformity are listed with the product.

What the set offers

• Visible contents – clear plastic lets the colour of the oil, tincture or serum stand out, and you can easily check how much remains.
• Tamper-evident seal – at the first unscrewing, the tamper element of the cap breaks and a visible mark remains. Useful when selling samples, in gift sets and for products you pass on.
• Food and cosmetics – both the bottle and the cap have a separate food-contact certificate, so the set works just as well for a homemade herbal infusion as for a facial serum.
• Low weight – PET weighs almost nothing, which you will appreciate when sending samples by post or when travelling.
• Reusable – after washing and disinfecting, the bottle can be refilled. However, the tamper-evident seal only works at the first opening.

Nominal and total volume

Nominal volume is the volume for which the bottle is designed for normal filling. The total volume to the brim is the physical volume up to the neck and is always slightly larger. The difference forms a reserve for the cap, for expansion of the contents when the temperature changes, and for convenient closing without forcing the contents out. The bottle is therefore filled to the nominal volume, not to the brim. The nominal volume is stated in the parameters.

Suitable contents

The set is suitable for aqueous, oil-based and alcohol-based contents in small volumes. In practice it works well for:

• facial oils and cuticle oils,
• serums and concentrates as samples for customers,
• tinctures, herbal drops and macerates,
• homemade syrups, flavoured oils and baking essences,
• travel-size containers of toner or hair oil.

For contents that are dispensed drop by drop, it is worth considering a dropper with the same neck type. For regular pouring, applying to a cotton pad or dropping directly onto the palm, the cap alone is sufficient.

Good to know

Before first filling, wash both the bottle and the cap, disinfect with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and leave to dry completely. Any remaining water would dilute the contents and can shorten the stability of anhydrous products.

PET and heat. The bottle is not intended for filling with hot contents. Allow emulsions, syrups or waxes to cool to approximately room temperature before filling, otherwise the plastic may deform.

PET and solvents. PET tolerates common cosmetic and food contents well. With undiluted essential oils, aggressive solvents or highly concentrated fragrance compositions, first test the container's behaviour with the specific formulation. The container may turn opaque or change shape.

Closures. Further closures with the same neck type and ready-made combinations are available in the Handymade range. With your own combination, we recommend verifying the seal, dispensing and container behaviour with the specific formulation.

Recycling. Both the bottle and the cap are made of PET and after emptying belong in sorted plastic waste collection.
