Rounded Clear Plastic Bottle, Transparent Disc Top, 150 ml

A clear 150 ml PET bottle and a clear disc top cap make a ready-to-use set for liquid and thicker cosmetic products that are dispensed by squeezing. The clear material shows the colour and the level of the contents. PET is lightweight and does not break when dropped, so it suits the bathroom, the shower and travel. The bottle with a 24/410 neck finish and the cap are supplied together, so you do not need to look for and test a separate closure.

What it is suitable for

The disc top dispenses the contents with one hand, so the set is best suited to products that are used quickly and repeatedly:

• Shower gels and liquid soaps – they are squeezed straight into the palm or onto a washcloth, and the closure is pressed back down after use.
• Shampoos and conditioners – the 150 ml size corresponds to a travel or trial pack and, if you sell your products, it can serve as a sample of a larger pack.
• Body lotions and light creams – a thicker consistency stays in the neck and does not run out by itself when the cap is opened.
• Rinse-off masks and scrubs – a liquid or gel texture is applied straight from the bottle without scooping with your fingers.

The set is declared as suitable for contact with cosmetic products, and you will find the declaration of conformity with the product. It is not intended for packaging food.

How it dispenses

A disc top cap is opened by pressing one side of the disc, which lifts the opening on the opposite side. The contents are then squeezed out by gently pressing the body of the bottle. To close it, simply press the raised part back down flat. The opening is relatively small, so the dose is easy to control and thin products do not run out all at once. With very thick creams or pastes, squeezing becomes difficult, and a jar is more suitable for such textures.

Both the closure and the bottle are clear, so the contents are visible along the whole height of the pack. If a product changes colour or turns cloudy over time, you will notice it with a clear pack without opening it.

Nominal and total volume

The 150 ml figure is the nominal volume, that is, the amount the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The physical volume up to the rim of the neck is larger. The difference is a reserve for the closure, for the air in the neck and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. For this reason, fill up to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If the bottle were filled up to the neck, the contents would get into the thread when the cap is screwed on, and the cap could leak.

Good to know

Before first use, wash the bottle and the cap, rinse them with isopropyl alcohol or ethanol and leave them to dry completely. The set can be used repeatedly if it is thoroughly cleaned between fillings.

PET is not hot-filled. Leave emulsions and gels to cool to room temperature and only then pour them into the bottle, otherwise the wall may deform. For formulations with a higher proportion of essential oils, fragrance compositions or solvents, test how the material behaves on a sample, as plastic may soften or turn cloudy in such an environment. PET is suitable for ordinary water-based and emulsion products.

If you want to combine the bottle with a different closure, all closures with a 24/410 neck finish from the Handymade range fit it, or you can choose a ready-made set with a fine mist sprayer or a pump. With your own combination, check the tightness and dispensing with your specific formulation.

The bottle is made of PET and the cap of PP. When recycling, separate both parts and put them into the sorted plastics collection.
