Why PET is the Ideal Choice for Hand Sanitizers
Excellent Chemical Resistance: PET demonstrates high compatibility with alcohol-based formulations (typically 60-80% ethanol or isopropanol), preventing bottle deformation, stress cracking, or leakage.
Superior Clarity & Sparkle: The crystal-clear transparency of PET allows consumers to see the product level and color, enhancing shelf appeal and brand trust.
Lightweight & Shatterproof: Unlike glass, PET is unbreakable, making it safer for public spaces, homes, and during transport. Its lightweight nature significantly reduces shipping costs.
High Strength & Durability: PET offers excellent impact resistance, ensuring the product reaches the end-user in perfect condition.
Food-Grade & Safe: PET is approved by global regulatory bodies (FDA, EFSA) for direct contact with food and pharmaceuticals, ensuring it is non-toxic and safe for packaging a topical product like hand sanitizer.
Eco-Conscious & Recyclable: PET is 100% recyclable (Resin Identification Code ♷1) and is the most widely recycled plastic in the world. Brands can also use rPET (Recycled PET) to create sustainable packaging and meet corporate environmental goals.
