The requirements of the cosmetics industry regulations for correct packaging and the fact that more and more consumers expect higher standards have driven cosmetic packaging manufacturers to continuously develop innovative packaging solutions to reflect consumer lifestyles and preferences.
Cosmetics such as lotions, foundations, toners and essences are packaged in cosmetic airless bottles. These bottles are usually carefully designed to better preserve the product. Hermetic sealing minimizes oxidation. Oxidation can cause cosmetics to deteriorate faster, so packaging cosmetics in airless bottles means that the quality of the product is maintained for a longer time and shelf life is extended.
Avoiding oxidation and contamination has always been a challenge when packaging cosmetics. Contact with air usually affects the physical and chemical properties of the ingredients. Microorganisms can also cause damage to cosmetics, especially because today's trend is to reduce the use of preservatives. Cosmetic airless bottles are the ideal solution for packaging products that are sensitive to chemical or microbial attack.
The salient feature of most cosmetic airless bottles is their sleek, eye-catching design. A standard airless bottle includes the body of the container and a pump sprayer on top for dispensing the contents of the bottle. Generally, airless bottles are used to package high-end cosmetics, and they tend to be more expensive than conventional pump bottles.
The production of airless cosmetic bottles provides a lot of room for customization, as buyers can provide manufacturers with specifications to make bottles that fit specific needs. For example, many manufacturers offer several options regarding color, shape and size or volume, material, number and style of bottles. Because these bottles are sold in bulk, buyers can usually order a minimum number of items.
The preferred color on the bottle can be achieved in a variety of ways, including spraying, UV spraying, metallizing, etc. Gold, silver or aluminum finishes are common, these finishes have smooth, elegant finishes that can be applied to a part of the container or the entire container. In order to mark the outer surface of the bottle and enhance the design, it can be printed, hot stamped or screen printed according to customer requirements.
Another effect popular in the production of cosmetic airless bottles is the appearance of matte ice. This type of surface treatment is achieved using a matte technology that spray-blasts the surface of the bottle to achieve an elegant matte finish.
Regarding materials, the most important factors are compatibility, environmental factors and durability. The most common materials used to make airless bottles are polypropylene (PP), acrylic, PETG and PETE plastics. These materials are highly resistant to chemical damage, have excellent transparency, are compatible with the ingredients used in the manufacture of cosmetics, and are strong enough to last. In addition, these materials are environmentally friendly and bottles can be recycled.
In addition to conventional pump sprays, some cosmetic airless bottles also have the effect of locking and twisting the pump. The use of high-quality materials to make the bottle cap makes the bottle highly leak-proof, which is very suitable for people who carry it with them.
Before delivering gasless bottles to customers, it is important to test to ensure the correct distribution of gasless bottles. A properly functioning pump spray helps avoid waste because the user only needs to remove the required amount at a time. In fact, the pumping action in the airless bottle can extract up to 95% of the product.
Advantages of cosmetic airless bottles:
1. Cosmetic products are often exposed to oxygen during storage and use. Sunlight and microorganisms can change their characteristics, causing odor, discoloration or pollution. Once opened, this shortens the shelf life of the product and reduces its quality and effectiveness. Airless packaging helps prevent products from contact with air and contaminants during filling, storage, and use, thereby increasing service life and preservation quality.
2. Since airless packaging has almost no danger of contamination and degradation, manufacturers can reduce the use of preservatives and make their products more organic. This is a great advantage, especially in the case of natural products. In fact, some cosmetics can only be packaged in airless cosmetic bottles.
3. Airless packaging avoids waste because consumers can use the product until the last drop. The precision pumps and other mechanical devices used in airless packaging can dispense products smoothly and accurately during each use, even in high-viscosity products.
Different types of airless cosmetic bottles and dispensing pumps are available, each dedicated to a specific type of application. Environmentally friendly, CFC-free packaging offers different sizes of airless pumps that can be activated at your fingertips. The exact amount of product is dispensed with each use. After dispensing the product, the orifice will be closed to prevent air from entering.
Another type of packaging uses bottles that accurately show the shade of the product and again provide an air-tight, soft lip mechanism to prevent the product from creating excessive flow during and after use. Packaging options to maintain product neutrality are also provided by preventing even metal or other parts of the distribution mechanism from affecting the product. This is useful for highly sensitive formulations.
Another packaging option not only prevents contamination and ensures neutrality, it also has a mechanism to prevent any product that comes in contact with air from dispensing back into the bottle during dispensing. If you are concerned about product drying out at the pump port, you can use some dispensers to prevent this from happening.
Airless cosmetic bottles are also designed for packaging and dispensing high viscosity sensitive products with multiple ingredients. These are ideal for products in the form of gels, balms, emulsions and lotions.
Airless packaging technology is more expensive than basic packaging such as cans and tubes, but its cost is decreasing as it becomes popular. There are some cost advantages to using airless technology because you can save the amount spent on ingredients such as preservatives and antioxidants to extend shelf life. A longer shelf life can also extend its validity. Compared with traditional packaging, airless packaging can also be filled faster.
The advantages and applications of Cosmetic Airless Bottles make it possible to introduce more organic products without preservatives. These products will also maintain their quality and provide a consistent user experience throughout their lifetime. Most cosmetics manufacturers will soon switch to airless packaging.
