Plastic bottle, white, matte, 24/410, 100 ml

This white opaque PET bottle with a capacity of 100 ml and a 24/410 neck finish is designed for filling with liquid and semi-liquid cosmetic products that need to stay protected from light. The opaque wall limits the amount of daylight reaching the contents, and the matte surface looks uniform with or without a label. The plastic is lightweight and unbreakable, which you will appreciate in travel packs, in the bathroom and when shipping finished products to customers.

The 100 ml capacity corresponds to the usual size of facial toners, micellar waters, light lotions, travel-size shower gels, hair sprays and cleansing solutions. The bottle is intended for contact with cosmetics. The nominal volume is the amount the packaging is designed for under normal filling. The total brimful capacity is larger, because space must remain above the liquid level for the closure, the dip tube of the fine mist sprayer or pump, and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. The bottle should therefore be filled to the nominal volume, not up to the neck.

What the bottle brings to production

• Light protection – the white wall dampens daylight, so it suits products with vitamin C derivatives, plant extracts, hydrosols or oils prone to oxidation.
• Unbreakable packaging – PET withstands a fall that glass would not survive in the shower or on the road.
• Low weight – with shipments and larger batches, the difference compared with glass shows in postage and handling.
• Matte surface – looks uniform under a label or without one.
• 24/410 neck finish – a widespread neck type, for which you choose the closure according to the consistency of your product.

Use and filling

Before the first filling, wash the bottle, disinfect it with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and let it dry completely. Filling is done cold. PET does not tolerate high temperatures, so let a hot emulsion cool to room temperature first and only then pour it in. For liquid products a funnel or a filling bottle with a spout will help, while thicker lotions are filled through a funnel with a wider neck.

Closures with a 24/410 neck finish and ready-made combinations of a bottle with a closure are available in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, check the tightness, the dispensing and how the packaging behaves with your specific formulation. This applies especially to fine mist sprayers, which need a sufficiently low viscosity of the contents.

Suitable for products such as

• Toners and hydrosols – light-sensitive water-based products that are often applied with a fine mist sprayer.
• Micellar waters and cleansing solutions – liquid rinse-off and leave-on products for everyday use.
• Light body and face lotions – thinner emulsions dispensed with a pump or through a cap.
• Hair tonics and sprays – products with lower viscosity, where opaque packaging protects the extracts.
• Travel packs of shower gels and shampoos – the 100 ml capacity meets the limits for hand luggage.

Good to know

You cannot see the level of the contents through the opaque wall. For products where you want to monitor consumption, choose clear PET instead. After washing and disinfection, you can reuse an empty bottle, but a closure with a pump or fine mist sprayer must be rinsed thoroughly so that no residue of the previous product remains in the tube. Do not use hot water or a dishwasher for cleaning, as PET deforms at higher temperatures.

The bottle is made of PET, which is commonly recycled through separate plastic waste collection.
