The packaging can, with appropriate handling, be used repeatedly, provided that its functionality and visual condition are preserved. Before each new filling it is necessary to thoroughly clean the bottle, the dispenser and all parts, and subsequently disinfect them with a suitable alcohol-based preparation, for example IPA 99 % isopropyl alcohol or ethanol 96 % denatured vegetable. Disinfection helps reduce microbiological risk and supports the long-term stability of the new filling.

Gentle manual cleaning with lukewarm water and a mild detergent, without aggressive abrasive agents, is recommended. After washing, rinse the packaging thoroughly and let it dry completely. Then apply disinfection using alcohol (e.g. IPA 99 % or ethanol 96 %) and, before filling, wait until the alcohol has evaporated from the surface. This reduces the risk of contamination and at the same time preserves the functionality of the dispenser.

Plastic packaging of this type is not intended for washing in the dishwasher or for boiling. High temperatures and prolonged exposure to hot water or steam may lead to deformation of the packaging, reduced shape stability and impairment of the function of the dispenser or seals. For this reason, we recommend exclusively manual cleaning at moderate temperatures, followed by disinfection with alcohol, without thermal sterilization.

If you decide not to use the packaging further, we recommend first emptying it and removing any residue of the contents. The method of recycling needs to be adapted to the type of plastic given in the parameter table for the specific product on Handymade.sk (information about the material and the relevant recycling symbol). Subsequently, dispose of the packaging in the appropriate container for sorted waste according to local collection rules. By correct recycling you reduce the amount of waste and support the reuse of the material.

Yes, the packaging can be used for different types of cosmetic formulations; however, it is important to ensure thorough cleaning and disinfection between individual uses so that residues of the previous product do not mix with the new filling. It is recommended to completely disassemble the bottle (if the design allows), wash it manually, rinse it well and subsequently disinfect it with an alcohol solution, for example IPA 99 % or ethanol 96 %. After complete drying and evaporation of the alcohol, the bottle is ready for new use.

On Handymade.sk you can use the advanced filter during selection, which is located in the upper part of the page after clicking on the respective packaging category. Using the filter, it is possible to quickly narrow down the selection according to key parameters such as neck type, size, colour and material of the packaging. Thanks to this, you can easily find a suitable bottle, medicine bottle or jar exactly according to the requirements of your formulation and the planned method of dosing.
