The combination of the 100 ml amber alchemist-style bottle and a solid aluminium cap is one of the most reliable formats for larger cosmetic packaging. The vintage apothecary form gives a timeless appearance — this pack of 48 is designed for crafters and small-business makers working in meaningful volumes.
What this pack of 48 contains
48 amber glass bottles with a nominal 100 ml fill capacity, and 48 matching solid aluminium caps. Each bottle is approximately 130 mm tall, 52 mm in diameter, and weighs around 109 g empty. The pack's total weight is approximately 5.23 kg. The 100 ml size is the large step in self-branded cosmetic 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. Body oils, bath oils, and hydrosols stored in the 100 ml bottle retain their original scent profile and active content significantly longer. The glass is chemically inert.
Aluminium cap details
The solid aluminium cap provides a corrosion-resistant, tight, leak-proof seal — even in the larger 100 ml format, it prevents aroma evaporation and leakage. Aluminium is chemically inert, imparts no off-taste or off-odour to oily or alcoholic contents, and contains no BPA, phthalates, or other plasticisers. Essential oils and botanical extracts stored in the larger volume are particularly sensitive to cap quality, because they are opened and closed multiple times during their use period.
Areas of use
- Bottling of your own body oils, massage oils, and body care products
- Storage of bath oils and skincare blends
- Larger format for natural toner bases and hydrosols
- Large-volume storage of botanical tinctures and herbal extracts
- The large base size in self-branded cosmetic ranges, also as a refill
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.
