We can custom decorate your bottles, jars or closures for you in-house. For more information on our capabilities and policies, please visit our services tab.
Bottles and jars made from PET plastic often get scuffs and scratches during shipping. This occurs even during shipping from a manufacturer to our warehouse. This is due to the nature of PET plastic. It is virtually impossible to ship PET plastic without getting scuffs or scratches. We have found, however, that most customers can cover scuffs with labels or other forms of custom decoration, and once filled with product, most scuffs and scratches become invisible. Please be advised that PET plastic is susceptible to these markings.
Most of the time, your order will ship from the warehouse that is closest to you. In some instances, we might not have all of your order available in one warehouse which will result in your order being split between multiple warehouses. If you only receive part of your order, it could be that your other portion has not yet arrived. If you need tracking information, please feel free to contact us and we will help you.
We stock a large quantity of bottles that vary in height but have similar neck finishes that can fit the same pump or sprayer. It is difficult to maintain a sufficient amount of pumps or sprayers with the correct tube length to fit each bottle style and size. Plus, tube length preference can differ from customer to customer. Instead, we stock pumps and sprayers with longer tubes to fit a larger percentage of our stock containers. We can cut the tubes for you before shipping if you're interested.
The cost of our packaging options will vary based on the amount of customization required. Please contact one of our account managers via "Contact us" page to determine which packaging option will be most cost-effective for your application.
Due to the custom nature of our packaging, we are unable to provide a packaging price list or catalog. Each package is designed to our customer's individual needs.

A variety of factors determines the compatibility of your formulation with any cosmetic packaging/container, which is why we have chosen to offer our products at any quantity. It is up to you to perform appropriate stability, compatibility, and shelf life testing to ensure your formulation is best presented to market. Check out our plastic properties guide to help you determine which packaging is right for your product. Stability & Shelf Life Testing are industry standard tests performed by you (or your lab) to determine the suitability of any container with your formulation.
There are several methods for filling lip gloss tubes. They are intended to be machine filled in a lab, but you can easily fill them at home. There are commercial grade syringes that work well for filling them. We have also seen some small business owners use household tools such as a turkey baster, or pastry icing applicator. These methods are elected in place of the preferred method where tubes are filled in a cosmetic laboratory by machine. It also comes down to what would work best with the viscosity of your unique formula.
We carry a wide variety of cosmetic packaging products while specializing in airless pump design bottles and jars. This wide range of products include: airless pump bottles, acrylic cosmetic jars, cosmetic pump bottles, lotion pump bottles, lip gloss containers, wholesale plastic bottles, and plastic bottle caps.
