Core Specifications

Data note: the listed 21.1 × 20.5 × 6.5cm and 0.352kg are marketplace single-package references. They are not reliable bare-bottle dimensions or unit net weight. Request capacity-specific bottle and export-carton data before arranging labels, filling equipment or freight.

Key Features and Buyer Benefits

• Space-efficient profile: the flat rectangular body fits closely on retail shelves, bathroom counters and in export cartons.
• Large branding panels: the broad front and back faces provide useful areas for direct printing or labels.
• Durable HDPE: the bottle is lightweight, impact resistant and slightly flexible for practical daily handling.
• Convenient pump dispensing: the press pump supports one-hand use and controlled product delivery.
• Versatile 8oz format: suitable for standard retail haircare, skincare, hotel bathrooms, salons and spa amenities.
• OEM flexibility: color, artwork, label, pump style, output and packing can be developed for the project.

Understanding the 8oz Capacity

A US fluid-ounce conversion places 8 fl oz at approximately 237ml, while packaging suppliers often market the nearest bottle mold as 250ml. For B2B orders, “8oz” should therefore be treated as a commercial size description rather than the final engineering capacity.

Ask for three figures: nominal capacity, recommended filling volume and overflow capacity. The formula needs sufficient headspace for the pump assembly and normal temperature changes. Buyers should confirm the filled weight and label claim with their own filling and regulatory teams.

HDPE Compared with PET, PETG and Glass

HDPE is a practical choice for opaque or colored shampoo and functional skincare packaging. The final selection must still be verified with the actual formula, filling temperature, shelf-life requirement and destination-market rules.

Pump Performance, Sealing and Ease of Use

The pump normally includes an actuator, closure, gasket, pump engine, spring and dip tube. When pressed, it draws the formula through the dip tube and dispenses a controlled dose. The selected pump must match the bottle neck, product viscosity and required output.

Shampoo, body wash and light lotion may not require the same pump engine as a thick conditioner, sun cream or high-viscosity body lotion. A large-output pump can feel firmer because it moves more product. A pump that is too light may fail to return when used with a thick formula. Always test the actual product for priming, output, rebound and user comfort.

For transport, confirm whether the pump is up-lock, down-lock or secured with a clip. The dip tube should be cut to reach near the lowest part of the flat bottle without sealing against the base. Pump direction and label orientation should also be defined for consistent shelf presentation.

How Leakage Is Prevented

Leak resistance depends on the complete bottle-and-pump assembly. The production specification should control:

• Neck dimensions, thread engagement, gasket compression and pump application torque.
• Bottle mouth flatness, shoulder formation and deformation around the neck.
• Dip-tube length, pump lock, priming and repeated actuation.
• Upright and inverted storage with the actual formula.
• Temperature cycling, vibration, drop and simulated transport testing.

Color, Logo and Decoration Options

HDPE can be produced in white, black, neutral tones or a custom Pantone-based color. Because resin and surface texture affect appearance, approve a molded color sample rather than relying only on a screen display. The pump can be color-matched or used as a contrasting brand detail.

Silk-screen printing is suitable for clean spot-color logos and simple instructions. Hot stamping adds metallic accents, while pressure-sensitive labels support ingredients, barcodes and multilingual content. Label material and adhesive should be tested for bathroom moisture, product drips and the slight flexibility of the HDPE panel.

Manufacturing and Quality Control

Typical production includes HDPE resin preparation, color masterbatch blending, extrusion blow molding, cooling, trimming, leak inspection, surface treatment, printing or labeling, pump matching and export packing. The flat body and panel geometry require stable mold settings to control warping and standing performance.

Important QC checks include:

• Capacity, length, width, height, neck finish, unit weight and wall distribution.
• Standing stability, panel flatness, corner formation, parting line and deformation.
• Color difference, surface contamination, black spots and scratches.
• Print registration, hot-stamp adhesion and label position.
• Pump fit, torque, priming, output, rebound and leakage.
• Carton protection, vibration and drop simulation.

Approve a written specification and signed golden sample before mass production. Formula compatibility tests should run for the intended storage period, especially for products containing essential oils, alcohol, strong fragrance, sunscreen filters or active ingredients.

Markets and Recommended Applications

The 8oz format is suitable for haircare brands, skincare companies, hotels, salons, spas, gyms, contract fillers, importers and promotional-gift suppliers. The flat body is especially useful where shelf width, carton efficiency and a large front label are important.

Recommended contents include shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand wash, liquid soap, light-to-medium lotion and compatible sunscreen. Very thick creams, particle-filled scrubs, solvent-heavy formulas or hot-fill products require separate evaluation and may need a different pump or container.

Safety, Sustainability and Reuse

HDPE is durable and accepted by many recycling systems, but recyclability depends on local collection, bottle color, decoration and whether the multi-component pump is removed. Do not use broad environmental claims without destination-market evidence. PCR-HDPE or mono-material closure options can be assessed when required. Commercial refill programs also need validated cleaning, sanitation, tamper-control and batch-traceability procedures.

MOQ, Price, Tooling and Lead Time

The standard customized MOQ is 10,000 pieces per design. Price depends on bottle weight, resin, color, pump engine and output, print colors, hot-stamp area, label specification, order quantity, packing and Incoterm. Send the number of SKUs and quantity split for an accurate quotation.

A new mold is normally unnecessary when the existing YFA-248 shape and neck meet the requirement. A proprietary silhouette, altered panel, special neck or exclusive pump actuator may require tooling and a longer development schedule.

Allow approximately 35–45 days for standard mass production after sample, artwork and deposit approval. Custom tooling, complex decoration, repeated compatibility tests and peak-season production can extend the lead time.

OEM/ODM Ordering Process

1. Send the brief: formula, target fill, quantity, color, artwork, market and launch date.
2. Confirm components: bottle drawing, neck finish, pump output, lock style, dip tube and decoration.
3. Review the quotation: unit price, tooling if any, sample route, packing, payment and Incoterm.
4. Approve samples: evaluate color, dimensions, appearance, dispensing, leakage and formula compatibility.
5. Start production: sign the drawing, artwork and golden sample, then arrange the deposit.
6. Inspect and ship: complete QC, confirm cartons and arrange courier, air, rail or sea freight.

Shipping and After-Sales

Bottles and pumps may be packed separately to reduce scratches and accidental actuation. Before freight booking, request the quantity per carton, carton dimensions, gross/net weight, total CBM and pallet plan. Sea freight is generally economical for a 10,000-piece order; courier or air freight is appropriate for samples and urgent approvals.

Inspect received goods against the approved specification and sample. Photograph damaged cartons before unpacking. Report shortages, leakage, printing defects or dimensional differences promptly with batch details, quantities, photos and video. Any remedy should follow the confirmed contract, inspection criteria and transport responsibility.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is 8oz the same as 250ml?

Not exactly by mathematical conversion, but 250ml bottles are commonly sold as the 8oz packaging format. Confirm the actual nominal, recommended fill and overflow capacities on the technical drawing.

Is HDPE suitable for shampoo and sunscreen?

HDPE is widely used for both categories, but compatibility depends on the exact formula. Test the filled package for odor transfer, swelling, panel change, leakage and pump performance before production.

Can the pump dispense thick cream?

Only if the pump engine and dip tube suit the viscosity. Very thick products may require a high-viscosity lotion pump, larger orifice or a different package.

Can the bottle and pump be color matched?

Yes. Custom colors can be developed from Pantone references, but bottle and pump materials may show color differently. Approve physical samples.

How is leakage controlled?

The bottle neck, pump thread, gasket and torque are matched and then tested with the real formula through upright, inverted, temperature and transport simulations.

Do we need a new mold?

Not when the existing YFA-248 bottle meets the requirement. A new shape, panel, neck or exclusive closure may require tooling.

What is needed for a quotation?

Send the quantity, target fill, formula viscosity, bottle and pump colors, preferred pump output, artwork, decoration, destination and required delivery date.
