  • Molding and Processing

Acrylic bottle shells in the cosmetics sector are typically made using injection molding, making them also known as injection-molded bottles. Because of their low chemical resistance, they cannot be used to fill creams without an inner liner for isolation purposes. Filling should not be too high to avoid the product from seeping between the liner and the acrylic bottle, which could lead to cracking.

  • Surface Treatment

Acrylic bottles with injection-molded solid colors, transparent finishes, or crystal-clear appearances are often spray-painted to refract light for enhanced visual effects. Caps, pump heads, and other packaging components are often treated with spraying, vacuum plating, aluminum, gold/silver wire drawing, or secondary oxidation to highlight product individuality.

  • Printing

Acrylic bottles and their matching caps usually use silk printing, pad printing, gold/silver foil stamping, heat transfer, or water transfer printing to display brand graphics and information on the bottle body, cap, or pump head surfaces.
