What’s the usual material of skincare cosmetic bottle packaging?
1.Glass Material.
Glass skincare cosmetic bottle packaging are the main packaging materials cosmetics. Glass has good barrier performance and can be reused multiple times to reduce packaging costs. glass also able to easily change color and transparency, it’s safe and hygienic, with good corrosion resistance and acid corrosion resistance.
2. ABS Material.
ABS belongs to engineering glass, which is not environmentally friendly and has a yellow or milky white color. It has a high hardness and cannot be directly in contact with cosmetics and food. It is generally used as a material for making inner covers and shoulder covers in skin care cosmetics packaging materials.
3. PP and PE Material.
PP and PE belong to environmental protection materials, which can directly contact with cosmetics. They are the main materials for skin care products. The material is white and translucent. There are three different degrees of hardness, depending on the molecular structure.
4. PET Material.
Its main characteristics are high airtightness, good compressive strength, high water resistance, and transparency. Its transparency reaches 95%, which is higher than other commonly used plastic packaging containers, but it is not heat-resistant. PET is an environmentally friendly material that can direct contact with cosmetics It is the main material for skincare cosmetics packaging products and makeup bottles.
5.PCTA Material.
PCTA is a copolymer polyester plastic raw material. It has high transparency, excellent low-temperature toughness, high tear resistance, and good processing performance. It has excellent chemical resistance and can be electroplated, oil sprayed, and scratch resistant. Its density is 16% lower than PC, and its processing cost is 40% lower than PC. It has excellent printing, coloring, and electroplating performance, and its toughness is three times higher than ABS. It meets the European RoHS environmental protection directive and is suitable for high-end skin care cosmetic bottle packaging.
6.HDPE Material.
Its main characteristics are good acid and alkali resistance, better hardness, tensile strength, and creep resistance than low-density polyethylene. The products processed with it are semi transparent and have poor heat resistance. When used as skin care cosmetics packaging containers, there will be fine pores, which are commonly used for pharmaceutical bottles packaging, cosmetic bottles packaging.
7.LDPE Material.
LDPE also known as low-density polyethylene. Due to its low molecular density, it is softer than HDPE. The products processed with it are semi transparent, heat-resistant, and have fine pores. However, it has good acid and alkali resistance. Containers processed with this material are commonly used in facial cleansers packaging, skin care cosmetics tube.
8.PCTG Material.
PCTG is a transparent plastic with transparency and density close to glass. It has high glossiness, chemical corrosion resistance, impact resistance, and is easy to process. It can be injection molded, injection drawn blown, and extruded blown. It can also produce unique shapes, appearances, and special effects, such as bright colors, frosting, marble textures, metallic luster, etc. It can be used as a source of packaging materials such as perfume bottles and perfume bottle caps, cosmetics bottles and bottle caps, lipstick tubes packaging, cosmetic boxes, etc.
9.AS Material.
AS hardness is not high, more crisp (knock when the crisp sound), transparent color, can directly contact with cosmetics, in the ordinary emulsion serum lotion bottle, airless vacuum cosmetics bottle is generally the material of the bottle, can also be used for making small capacity eye cream jar or face cream jar. It is transparent.
10.Acrylic Material.
Acrylic also called PMMA or plexiglass, it has good transparency, chemical stability, weather resistance, easy dyeing, easy processing, beautiful appearance, and hard material. In order to maintain the transparent texture, it is often sprayed inside and outside the bottle, or colored during injection molding. It is often used for skin care cosmetic bottle caps and bottle body packaging.
