## 1. Executive Summary & Core Engineering Scope
Airless bottles and laminate tubes for SPF from vetted Chinese partner factories: filter-compatible PP/EVOH structures, 48°C/30-day compatibility protocol, UV-protective options, MOQ by route. Airless vs tube comparison published.

Vella sources sunscreen and SPF packaging from vetted partner factories — airless pump bottles that protect the formula, squeeze tubes, and matte finishes, 30–150 ml. An airless bottle seals SPF actives away from air so they stay stable and dispense cleanly; a tube is light and travel-friendly. Both take a premium matte finish so your sunscreen matches the rest of the line. Compatibility-tested, low MOQ, custom colour.

Sunscreen actives can degrade with air exposure , which is why an airless pump is often the best format for SPF. It seals the formula in a collapsing inner pouch or piston, so no air gets in — protecting the UV filters, preventing oxidation and dispensing almost every drop. That's both a performance benefit and a luxury one: the clean, precise dose feels premium. For lighter, travel and body sunscreens, a squeeze tube is the cost-effective, familiar choice — and both can be finished to match your skincare collection.

Sunscreen packaging is decided by the formula before the shape: oil-rich SPF bulks and ester-based UV filters attack AS (SAN), craze PMMA and swell standard NBR/TPE gaskets , so the contact materials are PP, HDPE, a PE/EVOH or ABL tube, or glass , with acrylic only as an outer shell. An airless pump bottle runs 10–100 ml at an indicative MOQ of ~10,000 pieces and 20–30 days ; a tube runs Ø28–Ø45 at 30–150 g, 5,000–10,000 per SKU and 15–20 days . Every SPF pack is confirmed with the actual bulk at 48°C for 30 days and vacuum-leak tested at −0.08 MPa for 15 minutes, loss ≤0.5% . These are indicative ranges from vetted partner factories operating to ISO 22716 / GMP.

Sunscreen packs fail in ways that show up months after launch — in a hot car, in a beach bag, or on a pump that primed perfectly with water. The failures below are the ones we design the test plan around.

The nine hard rules behind the compatibility table are on our formula-to-packaging compatibility matrix ; tube structures, barrier numbers and the print-area table are on cosmetic tube specifications , and the airless test sheet is on airless, pump and sprayer specifications . Face SPF as part of a routine is covered in the skincare packaging solution. The gates and thresholds follow our cosmetic packaging quality standards , and the questions to ask before you commit are in how to evaluate a China packaging supplier . Related formats: airless bottles and cosmetic tubes .

SPF formulas are oily, active-heavy and often thick. Four things we control so the packaging performs.

> **Direct Engineering Attribution — Alex Gao, Managing Director & Chief Packaging Engineer, Vella (`vellapack.com`)**:
> *"Over 78% of multi-SKU skincare and fragrance packaging failures stem from splitting glass bottles, plastic airless pumps, and rigid gift boxes across uncoordinated vendors without a shared X-Rite Ci64 masterbatch plaque or -0.08 MPa vacuum chamber SOP. At Vella, we enforce ΔE <= 1.5 cross-material colour harmony, 48°C/30-day active formula compatibility, and 30/40/30 100% brand-owned tooling contracts starting from 500–2,000 pcs."*
