1. Packaging Materials
There are many options for containers, jars and tubes. One thing is certain, you must choose between plastic or glass. Buyers today are very conscious about the environment. It makes sense to look at a few terms that will help you choose the best material.
2. HDPE (High Density Polyethylene).
HDPE is an extremely popular material for cosmetic packaging due to its strength. It is resistant to chemicals, moisture, and heat. It can also withstand temperatures as low as 100oF and as high at 120oF. It can withstand the elements. HDPE is also recyclable and available in many shapes and sizes.
3. PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate)
PET is durable and light, just like HDPE. It can withstand temperatures between -40°F and 120°F.
PET is basically as transparent as glass. It can also be found in many colors like crystal clear, amber, and cobalt. It can also be recycled easily.
4. Glass Packaging
Glass packaging is a great choice for any business. It won’t react to most products or ingredients. It is also not very classy and comes in many colors, shapes and sizes.
We recommend that you think about shipping before you make a decision on glass packaging. You should choose a bottle that is durable and won’t easily break. You might want to think about this aspect as glass is more heavy than plastic.
5. Filling Containers
Be sure to think about how you will fill the containers before buying. According to the product’s viscosity, bottles and containers are generally easier to fill. You can fill tubes with different methods if you prefer them. You can also fill tubes manually with large syringes. They can fill many tubes quickly.
6. Shipping
Packaging that is durable and won’t be damaged in shipping is a must. You should also ensure that your product is durable by choosing a carrier that can safely ship it to you.
Packaging must also be leak-proof. You don’t want your product to leak.
Summary
We recommend that you use these tips to ensure the best packaging possible for your cosmetics.
We recommend that cosmetic tubes be used if you own a cosmetics business. A cosmetic tube’s advantages include being affordable, lightweight, and easy to carry.
