Glass Packaging of Purely Balanced Collagen and Castor Oil by PureHavenSA

At PureHavenSA, our unwavering commitment to product quality and integrity guides every decision we make. It’s with this dedication in mind that we have taken a deliberate step to glass packaging. Our prized products, Purely Balanced Collagen and Castor Oil are packaged in exquisite glass containers. This article is your gateway to the core considerations driving this choice, and a journey through the manifold benefits of embracing glass as our premier packaging material. From its elemental constitution to its unparalleled capacity to safeguard freshness, along with its profound environmental friendliness, we proudly introduce the resplendent allure of glass packaging, exclusively tailored for our cherished clientele.

What is Glass Made of?

Glass, a timeless material with a fascinating history, is an amorphous solid that forms from the fusion of several natural ingredients. It primarily consists of:

• Silica (Sand): The main component, making up about 70-74% of glass, is derived from sand and other sources rich in silica.
• Soda Ash: Adding sodium carbonate to the mixture acts as a flux, reducing the melting point of silica.
• Limestone: Calcium carbonate contributes to the stability and durability of the glass.
• Other Additives: Depending on the specific type of glass, other elements like alumina, boron oxide, or magnesium oxide may be added to impart characteristics.

How Glass Packaging Keeps Contents Fresher for Longer

One of the most significant advantages of glass packaging is its ability to preserve the freshness and integrity of the contents. Here’s how it achieves this:

• Non-Porous Nature: Glass is impermeable, meaning it does not allow air, moisture, or other substances to seep into the container and affect the product’s quality.
• Odor and Taste Neutrality: Unlike some packaging materials, glass does not absorb or impart any odors or flavors to the product, ensuring its original taste and aroma remain intact.
• UV Protection: Amber or tinted glass variants offer an additional layer of UV protection, shielding the contents from harmful light exposure that may degrade the product over time.

Glass Packaging is 100% Recyclable and Organic

• Environmentally Sustainable: Glass is an eco-friendly choice, as it can be recycled indefinitely without losing its quality or purity. By opting for glass packaging, we actively contribute to reducing our environmental footprint.
• Non-Toxic: Glass is inert and non-toxic, ensuring that the contents remain free from any chemical leaching, making it ideal for storing health-conscious products like our Purely Balanced Collagen.

Conclusion to Glass Packaging:

At PureHavenSA, we are committed to providing you with the highest quality products, and our decision to make use of glass packaging for our products, Purely Balanced Collagen and Organic cold-pressed Castor Oil, reflects this commitment. The natural composition of glass, its ability to keep contents fresher for longer, and its eco-friendly attributes all align with our values of promoting health and well-being, both for you and the environment. Embrace the pure glass choice and experience the true essence of Purely Balanced Collagen – freshness, purity, and sustainability.

Note: Always remember to recycle glass containers after use to contribute to a greener and healthier planet.

It is crucial to bear in mind that, unlike glass, plastic containers can release harmful chemicals into the environment over time, posing potential health and environmental concerns.
