Glass packaging is loved by people because of its high transparency. Now more and more cosmetics are using glass packaging. Next,let's know about cosmetic glass packaging.

Advantages of cosmetic glass packaging

1. Colour application

Colour is one of the most common tools used in the design of cosmetic glass packaging. The most significant effect of applying colour to a transparent glass bottle is to improve the appearance of the cosmetic glass bottle, so that it is not uniformly transparent and monotonous; at the same time, it can also highlight the unique style of the cosmetic brand, forming a visible brand image and achieving the role of brand promotion.

2. Good transparency

Cosmetic glass packaging texture transparent, the material inside is clearly visible, "value + effect" to consumers convey a sense of senior.

3. Safety and hygiene

Cosmetic glass packaging is safe and hygienic, non-toxic and harmless, with good corrosion and acid corrosion resistance, the cosmetics industry has special packaging advantages.

4. Environmental protection

Cosmetic glass packaging can be repeatedly recycled and used many times, reducing the cost of enterprise packaging, but also conducive to environmental protection.

5. Good barrier properties

Cosmetic glass packaging material is lead-free and harmless, with good barrier properties, which can well prevent the oxidation and erosion of various gases on the objects inside the bottle, and can effectively prevent the volatile components of the objects inside from evaporating.

Applications of cosmetic glass packaging

Glass packaging for cosmetics are mainly used for skin care products (creams, lotions), foundations, perfumes, essential oils, nail polish several categories, the capacity greater than 200ml is rarely used for cosmetics.

Combination forms are as follows.

(1) Cream bottle series: glass body + double-layer plastic outer cap (general capacity in 10g-50g)

(2) Serum series: glass bottle + plastic pump head or electrochemical aluminium pump head (general capacity in 20 to 100ml)

(3) Toner series: glass bottle + plastic inner stopper + outer cap (100ml or more, also with pump head)

(4) Essential oil bottle series: glass body + inner stopper + large cap or rubber head + dropper + electrochemical aluminium cap

Cosmetic glass packaging processing technology

1. Colouring process

Electrified aluminium: aluminium exterior, on a layer of film wrapped around the inner plastic layer.

Electroplating: the effect comes out bright compared to painting.

Spraying: The colour is dark and matt compared to electroplating.

Sprayed on the outside of the inner bottle: the bottle is sprayed on the outside of the inner bottle, with a clear gap between it and the outer bottle, and a small sprayed area when viewed from the side.

Spraying on the inside of the outer bottle: the spraying is done on the inside of the outer bottle, the area looks larger from the outside, the vertical plane looks smaller and there is no gap with the inner bottle.

Brushed gold and silver: it is actually a film, and the gaps can be found on the bottle upon closer inspection.

Secondary oxidation: This is a secondary oxidation on the original oxidation layer, so that the light surface is covered with a dark matt surface pattern or the dark matt surface appears as a light surface pattern, mostly used for the production of logos.

Injection moulding colours: This is a relatively inexpensive process in which colour powder is added to the raw material when the product is injected, or bead powder can be added.

2. Printing process

Screen printing: one is high temperature ink screen printing, its characteristics are not easy to decolourisation, the colour is more dull and dull, purple toning is more difficult to produce results, the other is low temperature ink screen printing, the colour is more colorful, the requirements of the ink is higher, otherwise it is easy to fall off, and in the bottle disinfection to pay attention to.

Stamping: is a thin layer of paper stamping on the top, so there is no screen printing of the bumpy feeling. Stamping is best not directly on the PE and PP materials, you need to heat transfer before stamping or have good stamping paper can also be directly stamped.

Water transfer printing: is placed in water for the irregular printing process, the printed pattern is not consistent, and more expensive.

Heat transfer printing: Heat transfer printing is mostly used for large quantities, printing complex products, belong to the surface attached to a layer of film, the price is expensive.

Offset printing: mostly used for aluminium-plastic hose and all-plastic hose, offset printing if it is coloured hose to do white must use silk-screen printing, offset printing will have a base colour through out, sometimes attached to the surface of the hose a bright film or matte film.
