Are Cosmetic Bottles Plastic Or Glass?

The main reasons why most skin care products on the market use plastic containers are as follows: light weight, convenient storage and transportation, easy to carry and use; good resistance, permeability and sealing, high transparency; good processing performance, various sizes, shapes, Everything; instructions, barcodes, anti-counterfeiting signs, etc. are easy to color and print, and will not fall off; good chemical stability, hygienic.

However, plastic containers also have limitations. Plastics are not heat-resistant, have limited light blocking properties, are easily contaminated on the surface, and are more troublesome to recycle. For some cosmetics or those that are volatile and easy to emit fragrance, plastic containers are not a better choice.

Compared with plastic, the market advantages of glass material in terms of light resistance, heat resistance and solvent resistance are as follows: good transparency, clearly visible material body; good barrier properties, can provide good quality preservation conditions; good temperature tolerance, can be stored at low temperature ; Rich raw materials, can be recycled, no pollution to the environment; good chemical stability, odorless, clean and hygienic.

From this point of view, glass packaging is indeed much better than plastic, but glass also has defects, not to mention the high quality. The shortcoming of fragility alone requires higher costs in processing and transportation, and will also affect skin care products. the overall price.
