Closure Compatibility

Neck finish, cap and seal — what is confirmed, what needs a quote

Closure choices decide whether your filling line runs smoothly and whether a tamper-evident claim holds up. The matrix below separates options stated on the bottle listing from options you must request explicitly.

Option Status What it means for your line
Tamper-evident screw cap Confirmed Listed as the sealing type on this bottle. Standard for pharmacy-facing syrup packaging where opening evidence matters.
QR code cap Confirmed Named in the product itself. Scanning is listed for inventory control, tracking and dosage or usage reminders.
Seal / liner Included in kit Seals ship with the order but are not pre-inserted into the cap — your team or your filler places them before closing.
Heat shrink film Included in kit Supplied with the kit for an outer tamper band after filling and capping.
PAR labels Included in kit Shipped separately and not affixed, so your own print or over-labelling step stays intact.
28/400 screw cap finish Quote needed Referenced on the square 473 ml SKU rather than this lean arch listing — request it as a quote line item if your filler needs that finish.
CRC (child-resistant) cap Quote needed Not listed on this page. Ask for availability, tooling and lead time if your market requires child-resistant closures.
Red-writing cap Quote needed Not listed on this page. Confirm feasibility, colour matching and minimum quantity with the supplier.

Status labels describe what the bottle page states today. Anything marked “Quote needed” should be written into your inquiry so the response covers tooling, samples and lead time.

Three questions to settle before you quote

  • Who inserts the seal? Because the seal is not shipped inside the cap, decide whether your line or your co-packer handles insertion.
  • Does the QR code need to resolve to your system? The cap supports scanning for tracking and dosage reminders — confirm whose data the code carries.
  • Is a child-resistant closure a regulatory requirement? If your market demands CRC, ask for it as a quote item rather than assuming it fits the standard cap.

Why Amber

Why amber PET is specified for liquid medicines

Light exposure is one of the quiet failure modes in liquid medicine packaging. Clear containers let visible and ultraviolet light through to the contents, which is why the bottle page states that the amber wall blocks harmful UV light and positions the bottle for cough syrup and other liquid medicines rather than as a generic container.

Amber PET delivers that screening without the weight and breakage risk of glass, and the matte surface handling keeps the finish soft and non-glossy so printed dosage text stays legible. The same listing pairs the tint with a silk screen printing option, so the light-barrier benefit and your product identification can sit on the same bottle.

“The amber wall is listed as blocking harmful UV light — the reason this bottle is specified for liquid medicines rather than general-purpose filling.”

What this means when you choose a bottle

  • Formulation first. If your active ingredient is light-sensitive, treat the amber wall as a functional requirement, not a colour preference.
  • Then label. Amber bodies reduce contrast for dark inks — request a printed sample so dosage text is verified under real lighting.
  • Then closure. Light protection is only complete when the cap and seal close the system, so settle the closure matrix before you finalise the order.

Wholesale Pricing

Tier ladder from 2 pieces to 10,000 pieces

Cost per bottle falls steeply as volume rises, so the tier you land in matters more than any other single number on this page. Start at the MOQ, test the bottle and closure, then move up the ladder once your filling line is settled.

Amber PET cough syrup bottles grouped for wholesale tier quantities
Amber PET bottles ready for bulk tiers — the published ladder runs from a 2-piece minimum order to a 10,000-piece rate.

How to plan around the ladder

A 2-piece minimum order lets you inspect wall thickness, cap feel and label fit without a large commitment. Middle tiers carry you through a pilot batch, and the top tiers are aimed at co-packers and distributors running continuous production.

Before you lock a quantity, compare total landed cost — not unit price alone. Packed weight is listed at 0.300 kg per single item, which is the number to plug into freight estimates for a bulk tier.

Quantity Price per bottle (USD) Typical use
2 – 4$48.80Sample and inspection order
5 – 9$24.80Closure and label trials
10 – 19$16.80Small pharmacy or clinic batch
20 – 49$9.80Pilot production run
50 – 99$8.80Single-site restock
100 – 9,999$6.80Distributor and private-label volume
10,000+$5.80Co-packer and continuous production

The listing also shows a displayed price of $6.88 against a list price of $48.80. Confirm the break points and the price that applies to your exact quantity on your quote.

Kit Reality

What actually arrives in the box

The listing is unusually explicit about fulfillment state, and these three notes prevent the most common surprises: bottles arrive empty, seals arrive loose, labels arrive separately.

Kit contents: empty bottles, caps, seals, labels and heat shrink film — assembled here for illustration.

Three fulfillment facts to plan around

  • Bottles arrive empty. All bottles in the kit are empty plastic bottles, ready for your own filling process.
  • The seal is not inside the cap. Customers insert the seal themselves before closing, so your line or co-packer needs a defined insertion step.
  • Labels are not affixed. They ship separately from the bottles, which keeps your own artwork and printing programme in control.

All kits come with empty bottles, caps, seals, labels and heat shrink film, so the components for a tamper-evident finished pack are present — the assembly work is yours. If your operation cannot insert seals, ask the supplier whether a pre-inserted configuration is possible for your run before you order.

Decision Guide

Match your buying scenario to the spec that decides it

Most specification mistakes come from ordering against the wrong scenario. Find the row that describes your operation and start there.

Counter dispensing and a first small order

Spec it maps toMOQ 2 pc, sold as a single item, packed at 0.300 kg per unit.

Buyer decisionOrder 2–9 pieces first to check cap feel, seal seating and label placement in the real dispensing environment before committing to a bulk tier.

Private-label syrup launch

Spec it maps toSilk screen printing on the bottle, the QR code cap, matte surface handling and PAR labels shipped separately.

Buyer decisionSettle artwork, QR code destination and label geometry before you request pricing — printing and label choices are the variables a quote has to price.

Tamper evidence without in-house filling

Spec it maps toTamper-evident screw cap, loose seals and heat shrink film included in every kit.

Buyer decisionConfirm who inserts the seal and who applies the shrink band. If neither step is covered, raise it before ordering rather than after the delivery lands.

High-volume distribution or co-packing

Spec it maps toThe tier ladder from $6.80 at 100–9,999 pieces down to $5.80 at 10,000+, with free shipping on all orders.

Buyer decisionModel landed cost at the 100+ and 10,000+ tiers using the 0.300 kg packed weight, then confirm the applicable price on your quote.
