Cosmetics as a fashion consumer goods, it needs quality packaging materials, in order to enhance its value. Emulsion pump specifications range from 16ml to 38ml, the water output is 0.28ml/ time -- 3.1ml/ time, generally used for cream and washing products. At present, almost all kinds of material quality are used in cosmetic packaging, among which glass material, plastic, metal three materials are the main materials used at present, paper box is often used as the outer packing. Constantly develop new materials and new processing technology, the pursuit of new shape has been the industry's cosmetics packaging container development focus.
I. glass material
Glass has bigger advantage in high-grade cosmetic packaging field (explanation: can overwhelm the favorable situation of the other side), its transparency and finish degree are plastic bottle cannot be compared, thorough and pure, noble and elegant is the charm of glass bottle. Lipstick tube with different length to mark different capacity characteristics, capacity 3ml-360ml can be adjusted, for the sake of beauty and coordination, 60ml below commonly used 35# below caliber, 100ml, 150ml usually used 35# - 45# caliber, 150ml above the capacity needs 45# above caliber. Lipstick tube hose quality and manufacturers have different prices on the existence of a large difference, tube body can be multi-color printing and screen printing, some manufacturers have heat transfer printing equipment and technology. Hot stamping, hot silver to the area unit price to calculate, screen printing effect is better, more expensive and less manufacturers, according to different levels of demand to choose different manufacturers. For high-grade cosmetics or volatile, volatile fragrance cosmetics, such as perfume and other general use of glass bottles. Whitening, nutrition cosmetics, but they are extremely oxidized. This has put forward the very high request to the packing material seal, the glass bottle barrier property is strong, undoubtedly is more competent than the plastic bottle in the protection content aspect.
However, the variety of glass containers is single, even if there is a good design idea, due to technical and material restrictions, often can not be achieved. Because of the inherent bad place of glass (compare big, easy drunk etc.), to general cosmetic, just often use plastic container or compound container package.
Now most of the middle and low grade cosmetic packaging has been replaced by plastic bottles, plastic bags or plastic tubes, the application ratio of glass bottles is less than 8%, glass has an irreplaceable (with a substance to replace another substance (for the strong to replace the weak position)) advantage, in a short period of time is still the first choice of high-grade cosmetics.
In recent years, with the improvement of glass processing technology, the quality of glass bottles is being improved, the weight is being reduced, and the transparency and surface finish are being further enhanced by adopting computer CAD glass bottle mould (title: mother of industry) design and enhanced lightweight technology. In terms of post-processing, the glass surface can be frosted processing, color painting, color printing (up to 7-8 colors), carving, etc., greatly improving the glass bottle and added value.
Second, the plastic
Plastic is light and inexpensive, easy to form large-scale production, can be made into a variety of specifications, transparent, opaque and color bottles. Printing performance is very good, can use heat transfer, ink - jet, printing, such as the manual, logo, bar code directly printed on the surface of the container; Good forming performance, can be made into a variety of structures and shapes of bottles, cans, boxes and other plastic containers. The appearance of cosmetic capsule is various, have spherical, olive shape, heart-shaped, crescent shape, its colour is varied, have glittering and translucent and transparent already, also have 7 colour bead light, appearance is very provoking love. These packages give consumers a safer and more convenient way to spend their money.
The disadvantage of plastic containers is that the transparency is not as good as glass, but now polyhexene extended blow molding (a rapidly developing plastic processing method) technology to overcome the polyolefin blow molding bottle transparency is not high shortcomings, its crystal clear characteristics have been close to glass bottles. At COSMOPROF, held in Italy in March, the packaging industry has been striving to develop a product that can effectively guarantee the quality of skin care products and satisfy the needs of luxury, novelty and appearance. The emergence of multi-layer composite technology can meet the above two requirements at the same time. It allows layers of different kinds of plastic to be combined and molded at once. With the multi-layer composite technology, our plastic packaging can on the one hand completely cut off the light, air, which makes skin care products oxidized substances, on the other hand in the appearance of the wonderful visual effects and unique feel. The most popular packaging for skin care products is hose and glass bottles. Hoses were only medium and low grade packaging 15 years ago, but now even the most famous brands are starting to use them. Hose production economy convenient, easy to carry, suitable to accommodate emulsion and gelatinous body.
Due to the above excellent properties, plastic materials and composite materials to cosmetics packaging in the application of more and more, plastic products have occupied more than 80% of the cosmetics packaging market, become the most important cosmetic packaging containers.
Three, aluminum
As the national birth (basic explanation: the livelihood of people living level increasing, cosmetics and health care to protect skin to taste of consumption increase year by year, a substantial increase in recent years, cosmetics use aluminum packaging materials with light weight, bright color, elegant luxury, durable, easy to processing molding and coating, get the favour of cosmetics packaging industry (for people love or respect). Nowadays, vacuum coated companion paper has metallic luster and is easy to print. It has many advantages, such as beautiful, fashionable, high-grade and environmental protection, etc., which greatly meets the requirements of cosmetic packaging and has become the focus of attention of packaging materials for high-grade cosmetics (figuratively speaking, the key point of the matter).
The main consumer group of cosmetics is women, and the pursuit of beauty is a natural trait of women. The beauty packaging has a great influence on the status of cosmetics in women's minds and their preference for specific brands.
Vacuum aluminized paper printing transparent colorful ink, can give a high rich metallic luster, at the same time to a person with a psychological hint: after using this cosmetics can also shine. Vacuum aluminized paper is also easy to laser holographic processing, has a very good anti - counterfeiting effect. According to the needs of different cosmetics on the outer packaging printed on the flash laser LOGO or specific beautiful patterns, both beautiful fresh and easy to identify, but also make fake products. Vacuum aluminized packaging material is a new type of compound environmental protection packaging material, which gradually replaces aluminum foil composite paper as aluminum paper substrate. The word itself can be recycled, can be degraded in the soil of green environmental protection characteristics, and save metal resources, is a kind of green packaging material conducive to environmental protection.
