What are the commonly used materials for plastic cosmetic jars?
1. Polypropylene (PP)
PP is one of the most common materials in current cosmetic packaging, with good chemical stability, heat resistance and high mechanical strength. It is hard but light, suitable for all kinds of cream jars, lotion bottles and internal seals. PP is also very suitable for secondary processing, such as spraying, silk screen printing and hot stamping.
Advantages:
High temperature resistance, suitable for hot filling;
Good corrosion resistance, suitable for acid and alkali formulas;
Reasonable price, high cost performance.
Application example: Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. produces a variety of cream jars and cleansing milk bottles, all of which use PP materials in large quantities, and can be combined with UV coating and metal texture spraying, so that the products retain the lightness of plastic and present a high-end texture.
2. Polyethylene (PE)
PE is divided into high-density (HDPE) and low-density (LDPE), which is a plastic material with good flexibility and extrudability. PE is widely used in cosmetic hoses and squeeze bottles, especially for the packaging of cream products such as cleansers and hand creams.
Advantages:
Soft and extrudable, suitable for cream products;
Good cold resistance and toughness;
Good formability and easy processing.
Application example: In Shaoxing Roman's production line, PE material is widely used in cleansers and squeeze cream jars. With the company's precise injection molding equipment and assembly lines, precise docking and sealing optimization from the bottle to the lid can be achieved.
3. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET)
PET is a material with high transparency and good oxygen barrier properties. It is usually used to make transparent plastic bottles, such as lotions, toners and other liquid products.
Advantages:
High transparency, strong visual display;
Good barrier properties, suitable for skin care products containing active ingredients;
Recyclable, good environmental protection properties.
Application example: Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. uses the high permeability of PET to add a variety of color gradient spraying and silk-screen logos to the transparent bottle series, which not only reflects the beauty of the product contents, but also has brand recognition.
4. Acrylonitrile-styrene copolymer (AS) and styrene-acrylonitrile (SAN)
This type of material has high transparency in appearance and is often used in mid-to-high-end cream jars or makeup jars, but has high hardness and slightly poor toughness. Its chemical resistance is moderate and suitable for non-greasy cosmetics.
Advantages:
Crystal-like transparency;
Smooth surface and easy to dye;
Suitable for high-end visual design.
Application example: Some of Shaoxing Roman's high-end face cream jars and eye cream jars are made of AS material, and combined with the company's UV electroplating and hot stamping technology to create a visual effect of combining metallic luster with transparent shells, which is very popular among European and American customers.
5. Acrylic (PMMA)
PMMA, also known as plexiglass, is a highly decorative material that is often used in high-end series packaging shells. Its high transparency and scratch resistance make it look high-end both visually and tactilely.
Advantages:
Excellent gloss and transparency;
Good surface hardness;
Decorativeness can be improved through secondary injection molding.
Application example: Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. has mature double-layer injection molding technology, which can implant the inner bottle body in the PMMA shell to enhance the visual depth of the package.
What are the advantages of plastic cosmetic jars in travel?
Plastic cosmetic jars are light and easy to carry, a must-have for travel.
Compared with traditional glass or metal packaging, plastic cosmetic jars are light and easy to carry, making them an ideal packaging material for travel. The plastic material itself has a low density, which greatly reduces the overall weight of the entire set of skin care or makeup products, reducing the burden of travel. Especially in air travel, airlines have strict restrictions on the capacity and weight of liquids, and the lightweight properties of plastic jars make it easier for passengers to arrange carry-on luggage.
Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. uses advanced injection molding technology to accurately control the wall thickness of the bottle and jar, ensuring structural strength while maximizing weight reduction. The plastic jars produced by the company generally use high-quality PP, PET and other materials. These materials are not only light, but also have excellent durability and drop resistance, ensuring that they will not be easily damaged or leaked during travel.
High drop resistance ensures travel safety
Various bumps and collisions are inevitable during travel, and the drop resistance of cosmetic packaging has become a focus of user concern. The toughness of plastic cosmetic jars is better than that of glass packaging, which can effectively prevent breakage due to falling or squeezing, and protect the safety of internal products.
Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. has more than 9 years of experience in plastic packaging manufacturing, and the materials and designs used fully consider impact resistance. The company is also equipped with a strict quality inspection system to conduct multiple performance tests such as drop resistance and pressure resistance on the products to ensure that every plastic jar shipped from the factory can meet the needs of travel use.
Excellent sealing performance to prevent leakage troubles
During travel, liquid cosmetics such as lotions, toners, cleansers, etc. are very likely to leak, which brings great inconvenience to luggage and travel. Plastic cosmetic jars can achieve good sealing effects with precise injection mold matching design.
Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. specializes in the design and manufacture of plastic packaging molds. It can develop different types of lids and sealing structures according to customer needs, such as screw caps, press pump heads, and air cushion bottle designs. In terms of surface treatment technology, the company can spray UV coatings, thermal transfers, and screen printing on plastic jars to enhance the beauty of the packaging while strengthening the anti-leakage function. Customers can customize their own anti-leakage design solutions to meet the high-standard use needs during travel.
Environmentally friendly and lightweight, in line with the trend of green travel
Modern travelers pay more and more attention to the concept of environmental protection, and lightweight and recyclability have become important indicators of packaging materials. Plastic cosmetic jars are favored by environmentally friendly brands because of their reusable and easy-to-recycle characteristics. Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. actively responds to the global green packaging trend, and some products use recyclable recycled materials (PCR) to promote the popularization of environmentally friendly packaging.
In addition, the design of plastic jars is more flexible, which can reduce unnecessary material waste, achieve lightweight design, and conform to the concept of green travel. Customers can choose appropriate environmentally friendly materials and processes according to environmental regulations and consumer needs in different markets.
Diversified design and surface technology enhance the travel packaging experience
The cosmetic packaging for travel should not only be practical, but also conform to the fashion aesthetic. Shaoxing Roman Plastic Co., Ltd. has a variety of surface treatment technologies such as spraying, UV coating, screen printing, hot stamping and label pasting, which can create personalized and high-end plastic jar packaging for customers. Whether it is simple style or luxurious texture, it can meet the design needs of customers.
Through flexible OEM/ODM services, Shaoxing Roman helps brand customers transform innovative ideas into specific products to meet the diverse expectations of different consumers for travel cosmetic packaging.
What is the application scope of plastic cosmetic jars in the cosmetics industry
