The combination of an amber alchemist-style bottle and a solid aluminium cap is one of the most reliable storage formats for essential oils and sensitive aromatic preparations. This pack of 140 is designed for small-business makers and aromatherapy crafters who work with natural raw materials regularly and in meaningful volumes.
What this pack of 140 contains
140 amber glass bottles with a nominal 10 ml fill capacity, and 140 matching solid aluminium caps. Each bottle is approximately 57 mm tall, 24 mm in diameter, and weighs around 32 g empty. The total pack weight is approximately 4.48 kg. The vintage apothecary form is ideal for self-labelled, natural-inspired product ranges.
Amber glass and UV protection
Amber-coloured glass effectively absorbs the shorter wavelengths of visible light and the ultraviolet range — precisely those photocatalysts that trigger the oxidation of volatile compounds. Stored in amber glass, essential oils and botanical tinctures retain their original scent profile and active ingredient content significantly longer. Glass is chemically inert: it does not react with the contents, and contains no plasticisers or migratable additives.
Aluminium cap details
The solid aluminium cap provides a corrosion-resistant, tight, leak-proof seal. Aluminium is chemically inert, imparts no off-taste or off-odour to oily or alcoholic contents, and contains no BPA, phthalates, or other plasticisers. Citrus essential oils, which can soften or discolour plastic caps over time, come into contact with aluminium without any issue. The cap is also easily recyclable.
Areas of use
- Precise drop-by-drop dispensing of your own essential oil blends and aromatherapy recipes
- Filling unique perfume compositions and scent bases into sample bottles
- Bottling natural facial serums, skin oils, and resinous extracts
- Storage of botanical tinctures, hydrosols, and flower essences
- Bottling self-branded cosmetic or herbal product ranges
Cleaning and maintenance
Before filling, wash each bottle with warm water and mild soap, then rinse with alcohol to neutralise residual aromatic substances, and allow to dry completely. Avoid the dishwasher, as high temperatures can damage labelling. Wipe the aluminium cap with an alcohol cloth; do not submerge it in strongly acidic or alkaline solutions, as this can dull the surface over time.
