Crystal clarity and design freedom make PET preforms the first choice for beauty brands.
A 24 mm, 11 g preform blown to 200 ml oval bottle achieves haze < 0.5 % and gloss > 90 GU-rivalling flint glass-while surviving 1.2 m drop tests critical for e-commerce channels.
UV-block masterbatch at 330 nm protects retinol or vitamin C serums from photodegradation, extending shelf life 40 %. Matte varnish, soft-touch lacquer or metallisation are applied post-blow, allowing MOQs as low as 10 k units for indie labels.
100 % rPET grades now reach colour L* > 90, giving prestige brands a fully recyclable story without sacrificing premium shelf appeal.
