Bottle size and weight
Volume, gram weight and the widest dimension set the mold size and the number of cavities that fit on the platen.

In short
Daily Chemical Bottle: what to know
Daily chemical bottles, such as shampoo, detergent, softener and cleaner bottles, are usually extrusion blow molded from HDPE. Tongda HT and HTS machines cover bottles up to 5 L, with single- or double-station layouts and multi-head die heads for smaller bottles.
Bottle shape, neck finish and handling requirements determine the mold and blow-pin arrangement. Discuss a view strip, multiple layers, deflashing and scrap collection as part of the project.
Typical products
- Shampoo and shower gel bottles
- Laundry detergent and softener bottles
- Household cleaner and bleach bottles
- Handled bottles with view stripes

Production process
How the production line works
- Step 01
Prepare the resin
Blow-molding grade resin, masterbatch and regrind are dosed to the product specification.
- Step 02
Extrude the parison
The extruder melts the material and the die head forms a hollow tube of controlled wall thickness.
- Step 03
Close and blow
The mold closes on the parison and compressed air forms the part against the cavity.
- Step 04
Cool and release
The part cools in the mold until it holds its shape, then the mold opens and the part is removed.
- Step 05
Trim and finish
Flash at the neck, handle and base is removed; necks are cut or reamed where required.
- Step 06
Inspect and pack
Weight, dimensions and leak tightness are checked before labeling and packing.
Selection guide
Choosing a machine
Number of heads
Small bottles are often produced on multi-head die heads; larger handled bottles may run with one or two heads.
Neck and handle
The neck finish and the handle design decide the blow-pin arrangement and how flash is removed.
Decoration
View stripes, multi-layer walls and labeling methods should be agreed before the die head is specified.

Questions from buyers
FAQ
Didn't find your answer?
Ask our engineersWhich Tongda machine suits detergent bottles up to 5 L?
The HT-5L, HTS-5L and the double-station HTII-5L and HTSII-5L are the usual starting points. The final choice depends on bottle weight, head count and output target.
Can a view stripe be added to the bottle?
Yes. A transparent view stripe can be configured on the die head so the fill level is visible. It is specified together with the bottle and mold design.
What should I send for a quotation?
A bottle drawing or sample, gram weight, resin grade, required hourly output and any labeling or deflashing requirements.
