Introduction and detailed parameters of cosmetic bamboo packaging

I. The core design concept of cosmetic bamboo packaging

• Integration of natural elements

Adopting the bionic shape of “bamboo joints”, together with metal rings or bamboo carvings, emphasizes the natural beauty of bamboo and the oriental cultural context.

The colors are mainly white and light green, simulating the misty texture of the bamboo forest in the morning, conveying the concept of tranquility and environmental protection.

• Combination of environmental protection and practicality

Bamboo is used as a substitute for plastic, utilizing the renewable properties of bamboo to reduce plastic pollution while keeping the packaging lightweight and durable.

The bamboo material is carbonized and mildew-proof, suitable for high humidity cosmetic storage needs (such as creams and masks).

II. Comparison of mainstream bamboo packaging types and parameters

1. Bamboo lipstick tube

Capacity: 3.5g, 5g Lipstick, essential oils

Material: Bamboo lacquer + metal lining - daily portable use.

Seal structure Screw cap + Silicone gasket - Anti-volatile liquid storage.

2. Bamboo Lid Cream Bottle

Capacity 10g-100g (multiple sizes available) Cream, serum, honey

Material: Bamboo Wooden Lid + Glass/PET Jar - For skin care products that need to be kept away from light.

Seal Structure Screw Clip + Silicone Ring - Highly leak-proof for liquids

3. High-end Bamboo Element Gift Box

Volume 75ml (perfume), 4-piece gift set Perfume, essence set

Material Bamboo metal ring + frosted glass - High-end brand gift packaging

III. Key Properties and Applicable Scenarios

• Physical properties

Moisture resistance: Carbonized bamboo + desiccant can maintain stable humidity inside the jar, suitable for masks and creams.

Corrosion resistance: bamboo and wood lids need to avoid long-term contact with strong acid/alkaline ingredients (e.g. Vitamin C extracts), prioritize with glass jars.

• Recommended Scenarios

Daily portable: 3.5g bamboo lipstick tube (lightweight and leak-proof).

High-end gifts: bamboo shaped frosted glass bottles (e.g. Gucci Bamboo Perfume Gift Set).

Eco-friendly dispensing: 15-30g bamboo wood travel canisters (instead of plastic bottles).

Market Trends and Purchasing Suggestions

Trend analysis

Bamboo packaging to “bionic design + functional” development, such as matte gradient glass and bamboo metal ring combination to enhance the texture.

Demand for small and medium capacity bamboo bottles (10-50g) is growing, in line with the trend of environmentally friendly travel.

Selection Points

Sealing: Prefer screw cap + silicone gasket structure to avoid liquid evaporation or cream drying.

Craftsmanship details: check whether the surface carbonization treatment of the bamboo cap is even to prevent mold and mildew.

Material and craftsmanship of bamboo packaging:

I. Core material of bamboo packaging

• Natural bamboo material

Raw bamboo or bamboo slices as the base material, retaining the natural bamboo green layer on the surface of bamboo as a protective film, both antibacterial and natural beauty, suitable for tableware, gift boxes and other packaging design.

Bamboo should be selected from 3-5 years old mature bamboo (such as purple bamboo, bitter bamboo), with high density and stable fiber structure, reducing the risk of cracking.

• Bamboo panels and bamboo composites

Bamboo sheet: Bamboo sheet is made by laminating and carbonizing bamboo chips, which is used to make boxes and bottle caps, etc. The surface can be engraved with bamboo patterns or sprayed with environmentally friendly paint.

Bamboo fiber composite material: bamboo powder mixed with resin to make biodegradable materials for the production of environmental bags, straws, etc., both toughness and load-bearing capacity (can carry more than 25kg).

II.The core process of bamboo packaging

1. Anti-mold and anti-moth treatment

Steaming and carbonization: Bamboo material is steamed at high temperature and then carbonized, destroying the living environment of insect eggs and molds and prolonging the service life.

Surface Coating: Edible grade vegetable oil or beeswax is applied to enhance water resistance and avoid deformation of bamboo material by water absorption and expansion.

2. Weaving and structural process

Traditional Bamboo Weaving: Adopting techniques such as pick-press weaving and turtle-nail weaving, the bamboo strips are woven into skeletonized or close-grained structures, suitable for tea, rice and other gift box packaging.

Composite structure design:

Bamboo Wooden Lid + Glass Jar: Bamboo lid embedded with silicone gasket, with glass jar body to realize high sealing, suitable for cream cosmetics.

Bamboo canister: bamboo sections are polished after cross-cutting, combined with rattan and hemp rope handles, used for tea bags, fragrance and other natural style packaging.

3. Decorative crafts

Fire branding pattern: using high temperature branding iron to draw traditional patterns on the surface of bamboo, such as West Lake scenery, lotus, etc., to retain the bamboo fragrance and the pattern will not fade away for a long time.

Bamboo metal ring: metal ring embedded in the bamboo lid, combined with frosted glass bottle, to enhance the high-end texture (such as perfume packaging).
