White Plastic Bottle, Transparent Cap, 100 ml

A white plastic bottle with a volume of 100 ml and a clear ribbed cap is a closed pack for liquid cosmetic products that are poured or decanted from the bottle. The bottle is made of PET, is lightweight and does not break when dropped, which you will appreciate when shipping to customers and in the bathroom. The white opaque wall limits the passage of light to the contents. The cap with a 24/410 neck finish has a foam liner inside that keeps the contents in the bottle even when it is turned upside down in a bag.

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

What the set is suitable for

The volume matches a typical product size for several weeks of use or a travel version of a larger pack. The 24 mm neck is designed for liquids. Thick creams and butters that are scooped with a finger or a spatula are better suited to a jar.

• Hydrosols and facial toners – light-sensitive water-based products that are dispensed onto a cotton pad or into the palm.
• Face, body and massage oils – the liner in the cap prevents leaking when the bottle is turned upside down.
• Liquid soaps, shower gels and shampoos – as a travel pack or a sample for the customer. The contents are dispensed after unscrewing the cap.
• Cleansing and micellar waters, make-up removers – low-viscosity liquid products that do not need a pump.
• Intermediate products in production – a weighed water or oil phase, fragrance blends before incorporation, batch samples to set aside.

Cap and liner

The clear PP cap has a ribbed shell that can be gripped even with wet or oily hands. The EPE liner is pressed against the bottle neck when the cap is tightened and seals it. The cap has no dispensing opening or safety feature; the contents are dispensed by unscrewing the cap. You can find closures with the same neck type and ready-made combinations of the bottle with another closure in the Handymade range. If you make your own combination, we recommend checking the tightness, dispensing and behaviour of the packaging with your specific formulation.

Filling and volume

The nominal volume is the volume for which the bottle is intended under normal filling. The brimful volume is the physical volume up to the neck and is slightly larger. The difference provides a reserve for the closure and for the expansion of the contents when the temperature changes, so the bottle is filled up to the nominal volume, not to the brim. If filled up to the neck, the contents would be pushed onto the thread when the cap is screwed on, and the liner would become contaminated.

Good to know

• Heat – PET deforms with heat. Let emulsions, gels and liquid soaps cool to room temperature before filling.
• Essential oils and solvents – for products with a high proportion of essential oils, alcohol or other solvents, we recommend testing the behaviour of the bottle and the liner on a single piece before larger production. The packaging should not be exposed to aggressive chemicals.
• Reuse – the bottle can be washed and filled again. Check that the foam liner in the cap keeps its shape and still seals.
• Contents are not visible – the white wall also hides any change of colour or cloudiness, so mark the product with the date of manufacture and check it after opening.
• Recycling – the bottle is PET with material code 1, the cap is PP. Separate them before disposal and put both in the plastics recycling.
