Choosing cosmetic packaging : glass packaging or plastic packaging
2022-05-24

More and more cosmetic products are flooding the market. I wonder if you have ever paid attention to the packaging of the cosmetics you use - plastic packaging or glass packaging? Below I will compare their advantages and disadvantages in this respect.

What is glass packaging and plastic packaging?

1. Glass packaging 

 1.Glass packaging

Glass bottles are increasingly recognised as one of the packaging materials for cosmetics. Glass bottles are traditional packaging products, bright and transparent, chemically stable, easy to shape, but heavy and easily breakable.

2. Plastic packaging

 2.Plastic packaging

More and more cosmetic products on the market are packaged in plastic bottles. Plastic packaging is lightweight, easy to store and transport, easy to carry and use; it leaks and seals well and is highly transparent.

Advantages of glass packaging and plastic packaging

1. Glass packaging

1The glass is lead-free, non-hazardous and has good barrier properties against oxidative erosion and evaporation of bottle contents.

2It can be recycled for multiple uses, thus reducing packaging costs for companies and protecting the environment.

3Transparent texture, with a clear view of the content, giving the user a sense of sophistication.

4Safe and hygienic, non-toxic and non-hazardous, with good resistance to corrosion and acid corrosion.

2. Plastic packaging

(1)Low density, light weight, easy to store and transport, easy to carry and use.

2Adjustable clarity, unbreakable, good permeability and tightness.

3Good resistance to corrosion, acids and alkalis and impact.

4High mechanical strength, easy moulding and low production losses.

5Easy to paint and mix and match colours on demand, making it easier to meet packaging design requirements.

6Plastic cosmetic packaging costs relatively little compared to glass packaging.

Disadvantages of glass packaging and plastic packaging

1. Glass packaging

1Glass packaging is of lower quality, more fragile and more expensive to handle and transport, which can affect the overall price of skincare products.

2The glass packaging is fixed, large and heavy, making it difficult to carry outdoors.

3Glass is more expensive than plastic, so the price of glass bottles for skincare products is higher.

4Glass bottles are easy to break accidentally, and any skincare products they contain will be shattered, making them too easy to throw away.

2.Plastic packaging

1It is heat-resistant, has limited light blocking, easily contaminates surfaces, and is difficult to recycle and discard.

2Plastic is not environmentally friendly and can react chemically with cosmetic products, causing them to break down.

3The overall appearance is relatively cheap and not suitable for the premium route.

 

After comparison of the two packaging materials, cosmetic packaging is trying to choose glass packaging, after all, the sealing performance of glass, high quality material, easy to recycle, environmental protection, and can effectively ensure that the contents do not deteriorate in the long term. Especially for high-end cosmetics, it is more appropriate to use glass bottles.Whether it's a plastic or glass bottle, packaging is designed to improve the product's protection, durability, decoration, etc. In recent years, eco-friendly packaging for cosmetics has also been favoured as part of the promotion of the green concept. In the future, eco-friendly cosmetic packaging will become a trend.
