1. ABS: ABS is an engineering plastic that is not environmentally friendly. It has relatively high hardness and cannot come into direct contact with cosmetics or food. In acrylic cosmetic packaging, it is typically used for inner lids and shoulder sleeves. Its color is yellowish or milky white. 2. PP and PE: PP and PE are environmentally friendly materials that can directly contact cosmetics and food. They are the primary materials used for filling organic skincare products. The materials themselves are white and semi-transparent. Depending on their molecular structures, they can achieve three different levels of softness and hardness. 3. PET: PET is an environmentally friendly material that can directly contact cosmetics and food. It is the main material used for filling organic skincare products. PET is relatively soft and has a naturally transparent appearance. 4. PCTA and PETG: PCTA and PETG are environmentally friendly materials that can directly contact cosmetics and food. They are the primary materials used for filling organic skincare products. These materials are softer and transparent. Both PCTA and PETG are soft and prone to scratches. They are less commonly used for spray printing and more often for conventional printing. 5. AS: AS has low hardness and is relatively brittle (producing a crisp sound when tapped). It is transparent with a bluish undertone and can directly contact cosmetics and food. It is commonly used as the material for the body of ordinary lotion bottles and vacuum bottles, and can also be used to make small-capacity cream jars. It has a transparent appearance. 6. Acrylic: Acrylic is relatively hard and transparent, with a white undertone. To maintain its transparent texture, acrylic often undergoes external spraying inside the outer container or is colored during the injection molding process.

3. PET:
PET is an environmentally friendly material that can come into direct contact with cosmetics and food. It’s the primary material used for filling organic skincare products. PET material is relatively soft and naturally transparent in color.
4. PCTA, PETG:
PCTA and PETG are environmentally friendly materials that can come into direct contact with cosmetics and food. They are the primary materials used for filling organic skincare products. These materials are relatively soft and transparent. Both PCTA and PETG are soft and prone to scratches. Moreover, spray printing is less commonly used; instead, they are more often printed using conventional printing methods.
5. AS:
AS has low hardness and is relatively brittle (producing a crisp, clear sound when tapped). It’s transparent in color with a bluish undertone, allowing it to come into direct contact with cosmetics and food. In typical lotion bottles and vacuum bottles, it’s commonly used as the material for the bottle body; it can also be used to manufacture small-capacity cream jars. It exhibits a transparent appearance.
6. Acrylic:
The material is relatively hard, transparent, and has a white base color. Moreover, to maintain its transparent texture, acrylic often undergoes external spraying inside the outer container or is colored during the injection-molding process.
