Yes, the glass dropper bottle can be reused, provided that hygiene principles are observed. Before each new filling, the packaging must be thoroughly cleaned and disinfected, ideally using a suitable alcohol, such as IPA 99% isopropyl alcohol or ethanol 96% denatured plant-based. Only after the packaging has completely dried and aired out do we recommend refilling it with a new product.

Before first use, we recommend rinsing the bottle with water and, if necessary, with a mild cleaning agent suitable for glass, thoroughly removing all detergent residues and allowing it to dry. It is then advisable to disinfect the inner surface with an alcohol-based preparation, such as IPA 99% isopropyl alcohol or ethanol 96% denatured plant-based. After the alcohol has completely evaporated, the packaging is ready for filling.

If you decide not to use the packaging any further, we recommend recycling it in accordance with local waste-sorting rules. After emptying and basic cleaning, glass bottles are usually placed in the container intended for glass. Information on the material composition of the packaging can be found in the product parameters – on this basis, choose the correct type of container. Any removable plastic closures should be sorted separately into plastic, according to the local collection system.

The glass dropper bottle is ideal especially for liquid and low-viscosity products, for example aqueous solutions, alcohol-based tinctures, oil blends, serums or aromatherapeutic compositions. Thanks to the stability of the glass, it is also suitable for formulations containing alcohol and vegetable oils. For thicker products, we recommend choosing a closure or applicator that enables comfortable dosing, such as a pipette or a suitable dispenser according to the offer on the e‑shop.

The simplest way to choose is to use the advanced filter in the packaging categories. After clicking on the relevant category on the e‑shop, you will find, at the top of the page, an option to filter according to several parameters. You can select a specific neck finish, the desired size, colour and material of the packaging, or combine several filters at once. In this way, you quickly narrow the offer down to bottles, jars and pots that best match your formulation and visual concept.

Before the final bottling of the entire batch, we recommend performing a small compatibility test. Fill one test bottle with the finished product, close it with the chosen closure or dispenser and leave it for several days to weeks under conditions similar to real use. Pay particular attention to the tightness of the closure, any changes in the appearance of the glass or closure, any odour from the material and the stability of the product itself. Only after such verification can you be certain that the packaging and closure are long-term suitable for your specific formulation.
