Choose Containers, Dispensing Options and Materials

Containers

  • Choose a bottle or jar around your target capacity and how the product will be dispensed or removed.
  • Consider the expected use and transport conditions.

Dispensing Options

  • Match the pump, cap or lid to your formula characteristics and check the closure fit.
  • Lotion bottles with locking pumps are available. We confirm the bottle and locking pump combination for your selected design and requirements.

Materials

  • Our packaging materials include glass and plastics such as PET, PP and HDPE.
  • The available material grades and bottle, jar, pump or cap combinations vary by design and order requirements.

Check formulation compatibility, sealing and dispensing with actual samples before approving the combination.

PCR Content Options for Bottles and Pump Heads

We can develop bottles with up to 100% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content and pump heads with 30% PCR content.

The PCR content available for your packaging depends on the component, color, performance needs and technical feasibility, and is confirmed for each order.

PCR raw-material traceability documentation is available. We confirm which PCR materials the documents cover for your order.

Colors, Finishes and Decoration

Use an existing bottle, pump and cap design as the starting point for your brand.

Options include component colors, gloss, matte or soft-touch finishes, screen printing and hot stamping.

We review your packaging material, component shape and artwork, then use samples to confirm the decoration options for your order.

Quantities, Samples and Production

Order Quantity

Orders for standard glass bottles and jars, plastic packaging and PCR packaging typically start at 10,000 pieces (negotiable). This starting quantity also applies to printing or spray-coating orders using existing packaging designs.

The final minimum order quantity (MOQ) depends on the product, material, decoration, components and order requirements.

Decoration Samples

A custom spray-coated or printed sample typically costs USD 200 per style and takes about 14 days.

The sample fee can be refunded after a bulk order if the approved print artwork remains unchanged; the quotation and refund terms are confirmed for each order. These terms apply only to spray-coated or printed samples.

Production Lead Time

For packaging made with existing molds, production with color customization or printing typically takes about 30 days after artwork and sample approval.

Final scheduling depends on the approved specifications, components, quantity, testing and production plan; shipping time is separate.

For a quotation, share the packaging design, material, components, decoration, expected quantity and artwork or visual reference.

Develop a New Bottle or Component

For a bottle shape or component structure that an existing design cannot provide, we offer new-mold development for glass bottles, plastic bottles and plastic components.

Order Quantities and Lead Times

Typical starting quantities

Plastic Packaging with New Molds
10,000 pieces (negotiable)
Glass Bottles with New Molds
30,000 pieces (negotiable)

The final quantity is negotiated for the product, material, decoration, components and order requirements.

Development and Production

Custom-mold development
Typically about 45 days
Bulk production
About 30 days after sample approval

Specifications, components, quantities, testing and the production plan determine the final schedule. These are development and production estimates. Shipping time is not included.

From a New Shape to an Approved Sample

  1. Design, engineering and feasibility review
  2. Mold Making (Tooling)
  3. Sample approval

Shape references, target capacity, materials, components, decoration and expected quantities help us assess your design and prepare a quotation. Tooling costs and packaging prices are evaluated for the proposed design.

Manufacturing and Quality Control

Manufacturing at Our Own Factory

Fomalhaut manufactures cosmetic packaging at its own factory, with mold development, decoration, assembly and quality-control operations. This supports both existing-design customization and new packaging development.

Samples and Inspection

We plan sampling checks around the product and its intended use. Depending on the packaging requirements, these include dimensions, capacity, formulation compatibility, sealing-pressure tests, drop tests, dispensing output and print adhesion. Sample review helps assess closure fit, formula compatibility, dispensing and decoration before approval.

We inspect the appearance and printing of every unit. The other checks are sampling tests, with the test plan determined by the product and project requirements.
