The larger-format clear pharmaceutical bottle is a category of its own among storage containers: thick-walled, stable-bottomed, chemically inert. This 36-piece pack of 200 ml bottles is designed for small businesses, makers, and independent creators who fill tinctures, hydrosols, decoctions, solutions, and cosmetic liquids in larger volumes — and who want a bottle that visually showcases the colour and clarity of the contents. The transparent design allows everything to be checked at a glance: colour, sediment, saturation.
What is included in the 36-piece pack
The pack contains 36 clear (water-clear) pharmaceutical bottles and 36 natural silver aluminium caps. Each bottle has a nominal capacity of 200 ml, a height of approximately 180 mm, a diameter of 60 mm, and an empty weight of around 220 g per piece. The total gross weight of the pack is close to 8.7 kg, which is worth noting for shipping and storage. The neck size is standard and the aluminium cap has a threaded screw closure.
Characteristics of clear pharmaceutical glass
Clear apothecary glass is thicker-walled than typical cosmetic bottles and is specifically intended for durable storage. As glass, it is chemically completely neutral: it does not react with stored tinctures, hydrosols, or alcoholic extracts, and does not leach plasticisers or other migratable substances. Transparency is an advantage when the colour, sediment, or suspension character of the contents needs to be monitored continuously — light-sensitive preparations, however, should be stored in a cupboard, box, or otherwise dark location.
Details of the aluminium cap
The solid, natural silver aluminium cap provides a corrosion-resistant, airtight, and leak-proof seal. Aluminium does not rust, does not impart off-flavours or odours to the contents, and does not react with most botanical preparations. The threaded design enables reliable repeated opening and closing, while the internal liner of the cap adds further sealing for liquid contents.
Areas of use
- Bottling homemade tinctures — long-term storage of alcoholic botanical extracts.
- Packaging hydrosols and floral water preparations in larger batches.
- Storing decoctions, herbal infusions, and honey-syrup recipes.
- Bottling liquid cosmetics, facial toner, and micellar water under your own brand.
- Precise dispensing of liquid household products, vinegar-soda blends, and solutions.
Cleaning and recycling
Before first use, it is recommended to rinse the bottles with warm water and a neutral dish soap, then dry thoroughly. In case of residual odour or oily buildup, most residues can be removed by rinsing with clean alcohol (e.g. 70% ethanol). Avoid using a dishwasher if there are any labels or markings on the glass. By separating the aluminium cap and collecting the glass separately, both materials are easily recyclable.
