In the skin care industry, glass bottle packaging is widely used in high-value-added products such as essences, creams, lotions, and facial oils due to its high-end texture, excellent chemical stability (strong barrier properties and good sealing properties) and environmentally friendly properties. These characteristics make it an ideal choice for enhancing product image and ensuring quality. However, brands or buyers often face a series of specific problems in the process of transporting glass packaging materials, which may affect the final product experience and brand image. Problem manifestations: 1. During the process of receiving, transporting (especially international transport) or filling, the bottle body is broken, shattered, cracked, corners are broken, and the edge of the bottle mouth is broken. 2. It leads to high loss rate, affecting cost and product availability. Main reasons: 1. Insufficient bottle material and strength: The glass is too brittle, and high borosilicate gla...

1.Thickness measurement The precise thickness of each layer of a tube is fundamental to its performance. This test uses a micrometer or specialized thickness gauge to measure the actual thickness of each layer (from the inner barrier film to the outer printed layer), typically at five to ten points throughout the tube. The goal is to ensure compliance with design specifications. 2.Sealing performance test Heat Seal Strength (Tube End): Cosmetic Plastic Cream Tube ends are sealed using heat during the manufacturing process. This test measures the force required to tear the seal. It ensures that the seal will not crack during extrusion, transportation, and storage. Standards generally require a minimum strength to ensure reliability. Torque Test (Tube End to Cap): This test evaluates the tightness of the connection between the tube end and the cap. A torque meter measures the force required to unscrew or tighten the cap, ensuring it is neither too loose nor too tight....

For skincare brands, the texture and quality of glass bottles directly impact product premiums, and the manufacturing process is crucial to determining quality. Currently, mainstream glass bottle manufacturing processes primarily focus on blowing, tubing, and drawing. Different processes correspond to different product characteristics, necessitating distinct considerations when selecting suppliers. 1.The blowing process is an excellent representative of high-end skin care glass bottles. The blowing process is mainly used to manufacture bottles with complex shapes, thick walls, and high-end appearance. It is especially suitable for customized bottles, such as irregular essential oil bottles and retro cream jars. When selecting a blow-molded bottle supplier, focus on three key aspects: Mold development capabilities. A good supplier should possess independent mold design and processing capabilities, accurately reproducing details such as bottle body texture and bottle neck curvature based...

Test focus: Chemical Resistance: Products containing strong acids or bases, particularly those containing strong acids or bases, may corrode the glass surface. This corrosion may cause glass flakes to break off, form visible particles, or imperceptibly damage the integrity of the glass. Furthermore, these substances can dissolve alkali metal ions. If these ions accumulate on or within the glass, they can cause a dramatic shift in the glass's pH, altering its chemical properties and ultimately affecting its performance and lifespan. Inner layer surface treatment: whether the release agent, siliconizing agent or other inner coating is compatible with the contents, whether it migrates or affects the stability of the contents. Metal Cap/Pump Head Compatibility: While glass itself is inert, the accompanying metal cap (available in tinplate or aluminum) and pump head (made from various types of plastic and metal springs) must be compatible with the contents. This is because corrosion and rus...

Many brand customers may not realize that the mirror-like glass surface actually hides the challenge of ink adhesion.To solve the above problems and ensure that the brand logo and exquisite patterns can be presented on the skin care glass bottles in a durable and vivid manner, we must pre-treat the glass surface. The following are several methods commonly used in the industry: 1.Why is it difficult for ink to adhere to glass bottles of skin care products? Glass is primarily composed of silicon dioxide (SiO₂), which has a unique structure: silicon atoms (Si) are primarily located within the glass, while oxygen atoms (O) are more exposed on the surface. This structure results in an extremely high surface energy, making the glass highly reactive and easily interacting with surrounding materials. This structure has a high surface energy and is easily interacted with other substances. For example, when exposed to air, it combines with hydrogen in the air to form hydrophilic groups. These hy...

In discussions about sustainable packaging, the word "recycling" has long been dominant. However, for forward-thinking brands, true environmental protection begins at the source.Reducing the environmental footprint of packaging from its very inception is key to achieving deep sustainability. Airless plastic bottles are synonymous with efficiency and hygiene in the skincare and cosmetics industry. Lightweight Design and Material Innovation Lightweighting is far more than simply "reducing the amount of material used." In addition to recycling, reducing the environmental burden from the very beginning of packaging is equally important. Lightweight engineering: Through precise control of wall thickness and structural optimization, modern environmentally friendly plastic bottles can be made as lightweight as possible while maintaining strength and functionality. While ensuring a robust bottle body and stable pump system operation, we have successfully reduced the weight of a single package ...

When choosing skincare product packaging, the key differences between UV-protective glass bottles and ordinary glass bottles are mainly reflected in the following aspects: In terms of protection, UV-protective glass bottles can block more than 99.5% of ultraviolet rays (380-500nm band), effectively protecting photosensitive ingredients such as vitamin C and retinol from photo-oxidation; while ordinary glass bottles have almost no professional ultraviolet protection capabilities (blocking rate <50%). In terms of product lifespan and cost, UV-resistant glass bottles can extend product shelf life by 40%-60%, but due to the addition of special oxides, the material cost is 15%-25% higher than that of ordinary glass bottles. In terms of sustainability, both types of glass bottles are 100% recyclable, but the UV-resistant glass bottle can be combined with PCR recycled materials, making it more environmentally friendly. 1.UV Blocking Mechanism:  UV-protective glass bottles form a stabl...

Packaging design plays a crucial role in consumers' purchasing decisions and can be regarded as the "make-or-break point" for brands to impress consumers. As Gen Z gradually becomes the main consumer group, experiential packaging has become the core track for brand competition. With its natural texture and strong plasticity, glass bottles are emerging as a key carrier for brands to capture consumers' minds. Has your brand seized the opportunity in this experiential competition by leveraging glass bottle packaging?   Nowadays, more and more enterprises regard customer experience as their core competitiveness, and its importance has surpassed traditional differentiators such as price and functions. For glass bottles, experiential design transforms them from mere product containers into media that create dynamic and unforgettable multi-sensory experiences for consumers. This perfectly aligns with Gen Z's consumption preferences—they value the self-expression and emotional conne...

When a consumer reaches for a lipstick or serum on a store shelf, their first decision is often driven by color—before they read ingredients or brand names. Warm tones like terracotta and gold, or cool hues such as mint and silver, do more than catch the eye: they tap into deep psychological triggers, address critical pain points like ingredient protection and sustainability, and align with shifting market trends. For beauty brands, mastering the psychology of these tones isn’t just a design choice—it’s a strategic tool to win trust and loyalty. Warm Tones: Energy, Warmth & Action Psychology: Evoke feelings of energy, passion, excitement, and optimism. They are stimulating, perceived as friendly, approachable, and grounded. Brand Signals: Warm packaging often communicates vitality (Vitamin C serums), natural warmth (organic, food-inspired ingredients), sensual pleasure (luxury body oils, lip products), and accessibility. Consumer Target: Appeals to those see...
