Glass packaging for cosmetics is not cheaper than plastic. ‌ The cost comparison of cosmetic packaging materials involves multiple factors, including material costs, processing costs, transportation costs, etc. From the perspective of material cost, plastic bottles have lower costs compared to glass bottles. cosmetic plastic bottles have low density and good plasticity, low production loss, and are easy to color, which makes the production cost of plastic bottles relatively low. In contrast, cosmetic glass bottles have the advantages of being high-end, easy to recycle and reuse, and having less environmental pollution. However, due to their large weight, high raw material and transportation costs increase the overall cost. Due to its recyclability, good sealing performance, and good texture, glass bottles are still chosen by many cosmetic brands.
