100 ml HDPE Shampoo Bottle: Spec List and Body Tolerance

A 100 ml HDPE shampoo bottle is a common, high-intent spec for brands launching or scaling a shampoo product. This page covers the material fit, the right closure and neck finish, and how to source it direct from a factory with low MOQ and custom decoration.

Bottles from our catalogue — 100 ml HDPE shampoo bottles.

Why specify a 100 ml HDPE shampoo bottle

At 100 ml, this format balances shelf presence and fill cost for a shampoo product. HDPE is naturally opaque and slightly flexible, which suits a shampoo where chemical resistance and a practical look matter. We tool this capacity across our HDPE range so the shape, neck and closure are proven before you order.

HDPE suitability for shampoo

HDPE fits: shampoos, body wash, conditioners, creams, detergents and any acidic or alkaline formula. Avoid it for: when a clear, premium look is required (it is opaque by nature). For export, note that HDPE recycles widely; keep colours light for best reclamation. If HDPE is not the right call, the usual alternatives are PET (if clear look needed) and PP (if hot-fill or hinge needed).

Closure and neck finish

A shampoo bottle at this size normally takes a lotion pump (28/410). The neck finish is 18/415 or 20/410, which means any standard 18/415 or 20/410 closure fits — so you can source the pump or cap separately and still seat it on our bottle. We confirm the neck at quotation so nothing is stranded.

Customization, MOQ and lead time

Stock HDPE bottles in this capacity start around 5,000 pcs; custom colour or plating begins near 10,000 pcs. Add silk-screen or hot-stamp decoration from a signed proof. Stock + simple print typically runs a few weeks; we bridge smaller first runs where volume is still proving out.

The 100 ml HDPE body is one of the shapes we run most often for this application. The table shows representative stock molds — most projects start from one of these and tune neck, colour and decoration.

Starting from a stock mold means a real, fill-tested bottle in days rather than waiting on a custom tool, which is usually the fastest way to de-risk a new SKU.

How we make and inspect the body

The bottle is blow-molded on our lines, then weighed and visually checked for flash, neck roundness and wall uniformity. Decoration (silk-screen, hot-stamp or label) is applied after the body passes inspection, and a final leak-spot check goes on filled samples.

Because the tool is in-house, sampling lead time is short — typically 3–10 days from drawing to first article — and repeats stay consistent because the same mold and resin are used every run.

Sizing the closure to this body

A 100 ml body needs a closure matched to its neck and its fill weight. Lighter, low-viscosity products suit a narrow dropper or mist; heavier or thicker fills want a wider neck and a pump or trigger that primes cleanly.

Tell us the closure you plan to use at sampling so we can confirm the neck and the sealing band before bulk — a mismatch only shows up once the line is running, and that is the expensive place to find it.

Next step

If this body looks close to what you need, send us your fill volume and planned closure and we will confirm the neck and the sealing band on a sample first.

Stock molds in this size family usually sample within 3–10 days, so you can prove the bottle before committing to volume.
