Cosmetic packaging has a good prospect, but glass packaging is still irreplaceable

Generally speaking, the texture of cosmetics can be divided into solid granules (powdery), liquid and emulsion cosmetics, and paste make-up, which makes bottle packaging widely used in cosmetic packaging. At the same time, cosmetics itself does not have a distinct appearance, it must be exquisite and unique packaging design, in order to show its own characteristics.
As far as the current situation is concerned, the advantages of plastic bottle packaging are remarkable. It is light in quality and cheap in price, and can be made into various specifications and sizes, transparent and opaque appearance. At the same time, the printing performance of plastic bottle packaging is very good. The instructions, labels and bar codes can be printed directly on the surface of the container by means of heat transfer, ink jet and printing. In recent years, the application of PET resin in cosmetic containers has developed rapidly, which has led to a great change in the replacement of glass bottles with plastics. Plastic products have occupied more than 80% of the cosmetics packaging market and become the main packaging container of cosmetics.
Compared with the proportion of plastic, glass bottle packaging in cosmetics packaging accounted for less than 8%. However, glass still has irreplaceable advantages in this field. In the short run, glass is still the preferred material for high-end cosmetics. The reasons for this situation are as follows.
First, the quality of glass bottle cosmetic packaging is better than that of plastic bottle. Noble and elegant is the charm of glass bottles, which can be made into frosted or transparent. At the same time, the thickness of glass bottles can double the trust of consumers and improve the quality of cosmetics, which plastic packaging can not do. At present, most perfume bottles are still made of glass bottles. For example, the perfume of women's perfume in BVLGARI, Italy, has a fine tradition of packaging design, streamlined glass bottles to highlight its simple lines, the bottle as a soft emerald green, convey fresh, elegant and friendly characteristics.
Secondly, the sealing of glass bottle packaging is better. For some cosmetics with whitening and nutritional effects, they contain a lot of nutrients just like food, but they are easily oxidized, which requires their packaging to have excellent sealing ability to block the impact of oxygen on these cosmetics. In addition, volatile perfume also has high requirements for high barrier packaging. Glass bottles have a strong barrier, and are undoubtedly more competent than plastic bottles in protecting contents. Therefore, some high-end line of cosmetics or glass bottle packaging as the first choice
At present, plastic bottle packaging occupies a larger share in cosmetic packaging and is widely used, but glass bottle packaging also has its irreplaceable advantages. Glass cosmetics packaging should still follow the high-end line in the future, but also increase its scientific and technological content.
