We have changed the way we close the plastic bags that protect our droppers in storage and transport. The new ties open by hand and carry a unique serial number and a barcode. It is a small change, but it affects both handling at the customer’s site and how we keep track of packed goods….
Droppers and their components are small, and surfaces such as glass pipettes and teats can pick up dust and scratches. Polyethylene bags are therefore a common inner packaging for them. This article explains what LDPE (low-density polyethylene) offers, which specifications matter, and where its limits are. Why LDPE is used for inner packaging Flexibility: the…
The plastic inner plug is a small part of a dropper bottle that is easy to overlook. It sits in the neck of the bottle, and the pipette passes through it. Its job is not to sterilise or seal the product. It keeps the pipette and bottle neck cleaner in everyday use. This article explains…

Thermal foil (heat-shrink film) is one of the simplest ways to protect them in storage and transport. This article explains what it does, what it does not do, and how to handle foil-packed bottles when they arrive. How thermal…

Beans need space and enough liquid to macerate properly, and a 5-100 ml dropper bottle is too small for that. Making the extract You need…
To fill a dropper bottle without spilling, use a small funnel or a syringe with a blunt needle, work over a tray, fill slowly and stop below the shoulder of the bottle. Leave a little air space so the pipette does not displace liquid over the rim when you screw the dropper back in. Prepare…
To clean a dropper bottle for reuse, take the dropper apart, rinse every part with warm water and a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, then let everything dry fully before reassembling. Glass bottles and glass pipettes tolerate hot water well, while rubber or TPE teats should be treated more gently because heat and some solvents shorten…
