The dropper can be used repeatedly under suitable conditions; however, strict hygiene rules must always be observed. Before each new filling of the packaging, we recommend thoroughly washing and cleaning the dropper and the compatible bottle, and then disinfecting them with a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example isopropyl alcohol (IPA 99 %) or plant-based ethanol (Ethanol 96 % denatured plant-based). This minimises the risk of microbial contamination and of affecting the stability of the new formulation.

You can always find the compatibility of the dropper with a specific bottle in the product parameters and in the recommended combinations directly on the Handymade.sk website. When choosing, it is important to follow the type of neck and the recommended accessories listed for each bottle or vial. Combinations of packaging and closures that are offered on the website directly as suitable are tested and functional; nevertheless, for each new recipe it is advisable to make a trial filling and verify both sealing and dosing.

It is advisable to first mechanically remove residues of the original product from the dropper and then wash it in lukewarm water with a mild cleaning agent. After rinsing, allow all parts to drip off thoroughly and dry. Before new use, the dropper must be disinfected with a suitable alcohol, for example IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or 96 % plant-based ethanol, and allowed to dry completely. This reduces the risk of transmission of microorganisms and at the same time protects the stability of the new preparation.

If you decide not to use the dropper or the compatible bottle any further, we recommend first removing product residues and rinsing them. The method of recycling depends on the material stated in the parameters of the specific product on Handymade.sk – based on this, you will place the packaging in the appropriate type of sorted waste (for example plastic, glass). Before handing them over to the collection point, it is advisable to empty the packaging as much as possible in order to reduce the load on the sorting system and facilitate the processing of the material.

For quick orientation in the packaging offer, we recommend using the advanced filter located at the top of the page after clicking on the selected packaging category. In the filter, you can clearly select the required parameters, such as type of neck, approximate size, colour or packaging material. The results are then automatically adjusted to your criteria, which significantly speeds up the selection of a suitable bottle, vial or other packaging for the specific product.
