Containers

Dark glass containers, like amber or cobalt bottles, protect oils from light and extend their shelf life, while PET plastic options are lightweight and travel-friendly.

Containers can be reused if thoroughly cleaned; however, glass is preferred for reuse, as it is easier to sterilize than plastic and prevents residue transfer.

PET plastic, or Polyethylene Terephthalate, is a durable, lightweight, and recyclable plastic commonly used for containers. This material is resistant to oils and alcohols, making it safe for storing essential oils, especially in diluted forms like hydrosols or personal care products. PET plastic also prevents leaching, ensuring that the container won’t impact the purity or effectiveness of your blend. While glass is generally preferred for long-term storage of pure essential oils, PET plastic offers a safe, portable option for diluted blends and daily use, preserving both safety and quality.

An orifice reducer is a small plastic insert placed at the opening of an essential oil bottle. It controls the flow of oil, allowing you to dispense it drop by drop, which is especially helpful for precise measurements and avoiding spills. Orifice reducers are commonly used with essential oils, as they provide a safe and controlled way to dispense oils, ensuring you get just the right amount for blending or application.

Foaming soap dispensers mix liquid soap with air to create a rich, foamy lather. They use a special pump mechanism that pulls a small amount of soap, combines it with air, and releases it as foam. Foaming dispensers are perfect for liquid Castile soap, which foams well when diluted, making it both cost-effective and gentle on the skin. This design helps reduce soap usage, providing an eco-friendly option for hand and body soaps.

Atomizer spray caps are designed to turn liquid into a fine mist by forcing it through a small nozzle with the help of air pressure. This process creates a light, even spray, ideal for applications like room sprays, hydrosols, and other diluted essential oil blends. These spray caps work well with both glass and PET plastic bottles, providing a convenient way to evenly distribute products that require a gentle, misted application.
