What is a roll-on bottle?

Roll-on bottles, also known as roller bottles, are a common type of plastic packaging bottle and are widely used. Roll-on bottles usually have a small capacity, and a roller ball is installed on the bottle head so that people can apply it evenly to prevent liquid leakage, and it also has a massage effect. It is generally used for packaging cosmetic eye creams, lipsticks, body lotions, face creams, essential oils, medicines, antipyretic gels, and children’s products. There are two types of roller balls on the head of the roll-on bottle: plastic and steel. Generally, steel balls are used for cosmetic eye cream bottles, while plastic balls are used for cheap products such as lipsticks, depending on the price of the product.

Scope of use of roll-on bottles

Cosmetics are the most common use of roll-on bottles. Roll-on antiperspirants and body lotions are evenly applied, and the effect is refreshing. Compared with sprays, roll-on bottles can apply antiperspirants and body lotions evenly on the skin surface, and the skin feels more refreshing after the roll-on. When used in some designated locations, roll-on products appear more professional.

Medicinal packaging is another important application area of ​​roll-on bottles. As a carrier of antipyretic gel, the roll-on bottle can evenly apply the medicinal gel to the skin that needs heat dissipation, and the cool feeling is conducive to heat dissipation. It avoids the irritation and discomfort caused by traditional physical heat dissipation and improves the unevenness of manual application.

Issues that should be noted when bottling a roll-on bottle

We know that a finished bottle usually needs to be manually bottled after the bottle body and bottle cap are produced. For general bottling, you only need to slowly tighten the bottle cap, which is fast, but the roll-on bottle has a rolling ball on the bottle head, so it is more troublesome and time-consuming to bottle. In addition, since the roll-on bottle head is a steel ball, it will cause pain to the fingers when squeezing and pressing it into the bottle body. A large number of bottling will cause damage to the fingers. Therefore, it is best to wear gloves and protect your fingers when bottling a roll-on bottle.
