All these terms refer to one color that ensures full transparency of the packaging. Sometimes, both packaging that has been given a color and those that look like colorless glass are called transparent. However, the ability to look through the material remains unchanged.

The term "refill" most often refers to packaging with a replaceable insert, an example of which are jars with an easy-to-remove thermos. This solution allows the customer to buy only a refill in the store, without having to purchase the entire package. This allows the packaging manufacturer to reduce the amount of plastics introduced into circulation, and the customer to reduce the amount of waste generated. This is an ecological solution, chosen by more and more global brands.

Airless packaging can be briefly described as those that limit the contact of air with the cosmetic as much as possible. Thanks to this, precious substances do not undergo accelerated oxidation and retain their values ​​for longer. Moreover, airless packaging is characterized by high efficiency, being able to extract almost 100% of the substance from the container. There are many airless solutions available on the market. Bottles or jars with a piston system, packaging with a bag for the preparation, or various types of jars operating based on various mechanisms.

Biodegradation, simply put, is a type of biological decomposition of a given material into simple compounds. Biodegradable materials are those that undergo such an organic process. They are considered very environmentally friendly.

Information about the brand, product, composition, etc. can be placed on virtually any packaging. The limitations may only result from the unusual shape of the packaging or incorrect selection of the technique of applying graphics or inscriptions. Therefore, it is crucial to choose the appropriate printing or labeling method. We will be happy to advise you on the best form of printing and offer implementation.

There are almost countless threads available across the spectrum of cosmetic and pharmaceutical packaging and closures. In each product category - type of packaging, its size, purpose or material - there are of course the most popular solutions, but the principle of selecting a closure for a container is simple. The thread markings on both the closure and the container must match each other. So, for a bottle with a 24/410 thread, we select the appropriate cap, closure, pump, atomizer, etc. with a 24/410 thread.

GlassandCo delivers the goods according to the rules individually agreed with the Customer, to the indicated address. The transport fee is the responsibility of the Ordering Party, and the choice of forwarding and courier is made by GlassandCo or the Ordering Party, in accordance with previous arrangements.

The standard mode of cooperation with Ordering Parties is a 30% prepayment, which initiates the order, and an additional payment of the remaining 70% when the goods are ready for collection. Changes to these conditions are determined individually and result from the repeatability of orders, mutual trust, order size, etc.

GlassandCo offers shipping of designs as far as possible, which depends, for example, on the number of packages in stock.

We are a wholesaler and the vast majority of our orders are in quantities exceeding 10 pieces. However, the minimum quantities necessary to place an order are often significantly lower. It all depends on the size of the minimum order from the manufacturer, packaging method, type and costs of transport and whether the goods are in our warehouse. “In stock” products can be ordered in much smaller quantities.

Both materials have their advantages and disadvantages. Glass is considered a much more ecological material that can be processed many times without a significant decrease in the quality of the material. Additionally, many consumers believe that the weight and sturdiness of glass packaging indicate the higher quality of the cosmetic/pharmaceutical product inside. Unfortunately, glass also has its disadvantages. It is a material that is brittle and cold to the touch. Moreover, placing e.g. a glass jar on a glass, ceramic or other similar surface is associated with an unpleasant sound and fear of breakage. In turn, plastic, or more specifically various types of plastics, are materials that are warm to the touch, lighter, more resistant to breakage and, in most cases, cheaper. The disadvantage of "plastic" is primarily the problems with its recycling. Fortunately, there are more and more methods of recovering plastics from the market and reusing them. Among the plastics, there are also more and more ECO materials, which are made from, for example, sugar cane and are biodegradable.

The type of packaging - loose, side by side on dividers, on trays, or with an additional protective bag, as well as the type of carton or e.g. the height of the pallet, are determined individually for each order. The details depend on the manufacturer's standard packaging method, the customer's requirements and technological possibilities.

Metallization is a method of coating artificial materials with a thin layer of metal, giving details a metallic appearance. This happens by spraying aluminum microparticles. Decorating with this technology is a very good way to obtain uniform surfaces with a metallic appearance.

These are methods of decorating, refining and applying print to details by means of embossing. Hot-stamping, also called thermal printing and hot-printing, is a printing technique using special foil and convex matrices made of heat-conducting material. In turn, cold-stamping is a method of applying color to labels, which involves transferring the decorative layer of foil to the material using a special glue (hardened with UV radiation).

This is a popular decorative method that allows you to obtain any color of the detail and various finishes (gloss, satin, matte) thanks to the use of various dyes. Hardening the varnish with ultraviolet radiation increases the surface's resistance to chemical and mechanical damage.

Screen printing is a printing method using ink. It is a very common technique for decorating packaging. The process involves forcing paint through a mesh with a template onto the material - most often using a press. Screen printing allows you to create precise prints on plastic packaging, which is why it is often used to decorate cosmetics packaging. Additionally, prints made using this technique are characterized by high resistance to damage and good durability.

Pad printing allows you to print on almost any surface. Thanks to it, you can create an inscription or pattern on packaging of various shapes, not only flat, but also round, concave or convex. Pad printing ensures very high print quality and can also be used with metallic inks. This method is characterized by eye-catching patterns with high abrasion resistance.
