plastic cosmetic Sourcing Overview
-
Common pitfalls in product type selection Overlooking the exact bottle or container type can lead to compatibility issues with the product's use; for instance, choosing a spray bottle instead of a pump sprayer bottle might not meet the intended cosmetic application needs.
-
Material negotiation for durability and appearance Insist on clarifying the plastic type—PP, PE, acrylic, or aluminium—as each affects product durability, look, and cost, with acrylic and aluminium generally offering premium aesthetics but at higher prices.
-
Sealing type and capacity impact on functionality Experienced buyers typically match sealing types like screw caps or special sealing with the product's capacity, such as 3 ml for perfume bottles often needing secure pump sprayers to prevent leakage.
-
Printing customization and cost considerations Customized printing options like silkscreen or hot stamping can account for a significant portion of the total cost, so balance branding needs with budget constraints by selecting appropriate printing methods and color options.
