Clear pharmaceutical glass with a plastic screw cap in the 300 ml size is a particularly practical choice: the thick-walled apothecary glass provides a durable, chemically inert container, while the lightweight plastic cap offers comfortable, quick opening and closing. This 40-piece pack is intended for small businesses, makers, and home creators who fill tinctures, hydrosols, decoctions, and liquid cosmetics in larger volumes — and who want packaging that is affordable, reliable, and optimised for everyday use.
What is included in the 40-piece pack
The pack contains 40 clear (water-clear) pharmaceutical bottles and 40 plastic screw caps. Each bottle has a nominal capacity of 300 ml, a height of approximately 200 mm, a diameter of 70 mm, and an empty weight of around 280 g per piece. The total gross weight of the pack is approximately 12.3 kg. The neck has a standard threaded design, so the cap fits securely and precisely.
Characteristics of clear pharmaceutical glass
Clear apothecary glass is thicker-walled than ordinary cosmetic bottles, so it is more stable and durable. As glass, it is chemically completely neutral: it does not react with the contents and does not leach plasticisers. Transparency makes the colour, any sedimentation, or suspension character of the contents continuously visible — which is particularly practical for liquid cosmetics and botanical extracts. Light-sensitive preparations should be stored in a dark cupboard or box.
Details of the plastic screw cap
The plastic screw cap is a lightweight, shatter-resistant, and quickly handled solution. Its internal liner seals the neck, so under normal conditions liquid contents do not leak. The threaded design allows secure repeated closing and opening, the cap does not rust, and it is less sensitive to the alcohol content of tinctures than some more delicate material types. For long-term storage of strong solvents — such as concentrated citrus essential oils — an aluminium cap is the better choice, as the monoterpene content can attack the plastic over time.
Areas of use
- Bottling tinctures and alcoholic botanical extracts.
- Storing hydrosols, floral water, and herbal decoctions.
- Liquid cosmetics — facial toner, micellar water, hydrating essence.
- Liquid household cleaners and vinegar-soda blends.
- Homemade syrups and honey-herbal solutions.
Cleaning and recycling
Before first use, rinsing with warm water and a neutral dish soap followed by thorough drying is recommended. For persistent odour residue or oily film, clean 70% ethanol is an effective solvent. Avoid using a dishwasher, as the high temperature and long wash cycle may prematurely age the plastic cap. The glass and plastic cap, collected separately, are both recyclable.
