White Plastic Bottle, 18/410, Gold Black Spray, 100 ml

White plastic bottle with black and gold fine mist sprayer, 100 ml

The white PET bottle with a volume of 100 ml and a glossy black and gold sprayer makes a ready-made set for your own toners, hydrolates, facial mists and hair sprays. The plastic is light and unbreakable, so the bottle suits the bathroom as well as a travel bag. The white opaque wall limits the light reaching the contents, which you will appreciate with hydrolates and aqueous solutions containing more sensitive active ingredients.

The set is declared suitable for contact with cosmetics. The bottle itself also has a certificate for direct contact with food, while the sprayer does not, so the set as a whole is intended for cosmetic products.

What it is suitable for

• Toners and hydrolates – the sprayer disperses watery liquids evenly over the skin. The contents are dispensed without touching them by hand, which helps keep them clean.
• Facial and body mists – light aqueous solutions with glycerine, aloe or peptides, applied several times a day.
• Hair sprays – herbal infusions, rinses and thin conditioning sprays with low viscosity.
• Refreshing sprays containing alcohol – with a higher content of alcohol or essential oils, we recommend first checking how the packaging behaves with your specific formulation.
• Test batches – a volume of 100 ml is enough to try out a recipe before making a larger quantity.

How the set works

The sprayer screws onto the neck of the bottle and the tube reaches almost to the bottom, so nearly all of the contents can be used up. One press releases approximately 0.14 ml.

The sprayer works with thin liquids. It cannot dispense thicker oils, gels and emulsions evenly: the nozzle clogs or the contents come out as a jet instead of a mist. For such products, a bottle with a pump or a jar is more suitable.

Nominal and total volume

The nominal volume of 100 ml is the quantity the bottle is designed for in normal filling. The physical volume up to the neck is somewhat larger. The difference serves as a reserve for the sprayer tube and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes. The bottle is therefore filled to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If it is overfilled, the liquid is pushed out through the thread once the sprayer is screwed on.

Good to know

• PET and active ingredients – essential oils in high concentrations or undiluted, as well as solvents, can damage the plastic. With such formulations, we recommend testing the packaging and watching for changes over several weeks.
• Heat – PET deforms at higher temperatures. Fill the bottle with contents that have cooled down, and do not leave the finished product in the sun or near a heat source.
• Reuse – both the bottle and the sprayer can be used again after thorough washing. The plastic parts of the sprayer may retain the odour of the previous fragrance, so when changing the contents we recommend replacing the sprayer or rinsing it for longer.
• Preserving the contents – aqueous products in this bottle need a preservative like any other aqueous formulation. The sprayer reduces contact of the contents with hands, but it does not replace a preservative.
• Other closures – you will find closures with the same neck type and other ready-made combinations in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness and dispensing with your specific formulation.
• Recycling – the PET bottle belongs in plastic waste, while the sprayer combines PP and aluminium, so unscrew it before disposal and sort it separately.
