Glass packaging for cosmetics is not cheaper than plastic. ‌

The cost comparison of cosmetic packaging materials involves multiple factors, including material costs, processing costs, transportation costs, etc.

From the perspective of material cost, plastic bottles have lower costs compared to glass bottles. cosmetic plastic bottles have low density and good plasticity, low production loss, and are easy to color, which makes the production cost of plastic bottles relatively low.

In contrast, cosmetic glass bottles have the advantages of being high-end, easy to recycle and reuse, and having less environmental pollution. However, due to their large weight, high raw material and transportation costs increase the overall cost.

Due to its recyclability, good sealing performance, and good texture, glass bottles are still chosen by many cosmetic brands.

Silk-screen printing refers to the method of obtaining graphics through scraping and printing using screen hollowed out boards and printing materials. During the printing process, the ink on the printing plate leaks from the through-hole of the layout to the substrate under the pressure of the scraper, forming the same image and text as the original manuscript. It originated in China and has a history of over 2000 years.

At present, there are semi-automatic screen printing machines and fully automatic screen printing machines for cosmetic glass bottles. The fully automatic screen printing machine has higher requirements for bottle shape, but the output is higher. As a brand, when selecting cosmetic glass packaging materials, attention should also be paid to the selection of bottle types. Irregular bottle types will have more restrictions on the printing position. Before designing, you can communicate with the packaging factory to obtain the cutting line of the glass bottle to avoid design changes and wasting time.
