1. The hose is divided into single-layer, double-layer, and five-layer hoses, which are different in terms of pressure resistance, penetration resistance and hand feeling. For example, the five-layer hose consists of an outer layer, an inner layer, and two adhesive layers. barrier layer. Features: It has excellent gas barrier performance, which can effectively prevent the infiltration of oxygen and odorous gases, and at the same time prevent the leakage of the fragrance and active ingredients of the contents.

2. Double-layer pipes are more commonly used, and single-layer pipes can also be used for middle and low grades. The diameter of the hose is 13#-60#. When a hose of a certain diameter is selected, different lengths are used to indicate different capacity characteristics. , the capacity can be adjusted from 3ml to 360ml. For the sake of beauty and coordination, the caliber below 60ml is usually used below 35#, the caliber of 35#-45# is usually used for 100ml and 150ml, and the caliber above 45# is required for the capacity above 150ml.

3. In terms of technology, it is divided into round tubes, oval tubes, flat tubes, and ultra-flat tubes. Flat tubes and ultra-flat tubes are more complicated than other tubes, and they are also new tubes released in recent years, so the price is correspondingly more expensive.

4. There are various shapes of hose caps, generally divided into flat caps, round caps, high caps, flip caps, ultra-flat caps, double-layer caps, spherical caps, lipstick caps, plastic caps can also be processed in various processes, bronzing Edge, silver edge, colored cap, transparent, oil spray, electroplating, etc., the tip cap and lipstick cap are usually equipped with inner plugs. The hose cover is an injection molded product, and the hose is a pull tube. Most hose manufacturers do not produce hose covers themselves.

5. Some products need to be filled before sealing. The sealing can be divided into: straight sealing, twill sealing, umbrella sealing, star point sealing, and special-shaped sealing. Print out the desired date code at the end.

6. The hose can be made of colored tube, transparent tube, colored or transparent frosted tube, pearl tube, and there are matte and glossy tubes. Matte looks elegant but easy to get dirty. Judging from the incision at the tail, the white incision is a large-area printing tube, and the ink used is high, otherwise it is easy to fall off and will crack and reveal white marks after being folded.

7. The production cycle of the hose is generally 15-20 days (from the confirmation of the sample tube). If the manufacturer has many varieties, the minimum order quantity for a single product is 3,000. Few customers make their own molds. Most of them are public molds (a few special lids are private molds). There is a ±10% deviation in this industry.

8. The quality of hoses varies greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer. The plate-making fee usually ranges from 200 to 300 yuan per color. The tube body can be printed in multiple colors and silk screened. Some manufacturers have thermal transfer printing equipment and technology. Hot stamping and silver hot stamping are calculated based on the unit price of the area. The effect of silk screen printing is better, but the cost is more expensive and there are fewer manufacturers. Different manufacturers should be selected according to the needs of different levels.

9. Combination form:
Hose + outer cover / hose is often made of PE plastic. According to the thickness of the product, it can be divided into single-layer tube (mostly used, lower cost) and double-layer tube (good sealing performance). According to the shape of the product, it is divided into round hose (mostly used, lower cost), flat hose, also known as special-shaped tube (requiring secondary joints, higher cost). The outer cover that the hose is often equipped with is a screw cap (single-layer and double-layer, and the double-layer outer cover is mostly an electroplated cover to increase the product grade, which looks more beautiful, and the professional line mostly uses a screw cap), flip cover.

Plastic Bottle

Manufacturing process:

Bottle body: direct production of plastic products to add color, the color is mostly used, and there are also transparent ones, which are relatively seldom used.

Printing: silk screen printing (use spot colors, small and few color blocks, the same as plastic bottle printing, need color registration, commonly used in professional line products) and offset printing (similar to paper printing, large color blocks and many colors, daily chemical Line products are commonly used.), there are hot stamping and hot silver.
