Why do cosmetics use plastic packaging bottles?
2023-05-19

Plastic containers have a wide range of applications, including food, medicine, agriculture, and beauty. Today, the editor will take you to understand the application and advantages of plastic containers in the beauty industry.


The plastic container materials used in cosmetics and skincare packaging in the beauty industry are diverse and have good plasticity. With its superior performance, low cost, and adaptability to environmental protection, it has rapidly developed in competition with other packaging materials such as glass.

Plastic bottles have lower density, lighter weight, adjustable transparency, and are less prone to breakage compared to glass products; Plastic bottles have good corrosion resistance, acid and alkali resistance, impact resistance, and high mechanical strength, easy to shape, and low production losses. Plastic products are easy to color and can be adjusted according to needs, making it easier to meet packaging design requirements.

Reasons for not filling cosmetics:


1. Considering the thermal expansion of the material body, it is normal to reserve a section of air.


2. The high air pressure inside the bottle and the leakage of cosmetics are caused by different altitudes in different regions.


3. The bumps during logistics transportation can easily overflow if they are full.


4. There are chemical phenols in perfume, which are very volatile, so half of the capacity of perfume is 75-80%.

If fully filled, it is easy for the content to seep out, ranging from affecting the appearance to being contaminated and causing the product to be scrapped. Excessive pressure can cause bottles to crack during transportation, and special gases can also explode.


So treating manufacturers as unscrupulous merchants, sellers as thieves, and engineers as idiots is really not suitable for purchasing skincare products because no skincare product is fully filled.

This is the characteristic of the production process and raw materials. The product is standardized on a production line, and the actual weight is the same as indicated on the packaging, and there will be no less than one gram.
