What goes wrong

The container type was guessed

On this page12

The type was inferred from the size And our capacity field was used as the proxy So the wrong statement was printed The reuse statement was written freely The recycling statement was treated as optional And our Recyclable attribute was used for it The batch code was expected from us Refillable was read as general purpose And the whole section was applied to a product outside it And a sample was used to settle it Ask the supplier, then print References

Small does not mean nonrefillable. The designation is the manufacturer's.

The type was inferred from the size

A small consumer bottle is usually nonrefillable, which is a heuristic and not a designation. The required sentence depends on the designation.

And our capacity field was used as the proxy

Nothing here exceeds 120 mL, which points one way without settling anything. We publish no refillable or nonrefillable field.

So the wrong statement was printed

Which is not an approximation. "Nonrefillable container." and "Refillable Container." are different required texts and only one of them is right.

The reuse statement was written freely

The section gives permitted options, of which the household wording is "Do not reuse or refill this container." Paraphrasing a required statement is not available.

The recycling statement was treated as optional

It is part of the nonrefillable set, with options including "Offer for recycling if available." and "Offer for reconditioning if appropriate."

And our Recyclable attribute was used for it

We publish that spec on 803 rows catalog-wide. It is a product attribute and not a statement about whether collection is available locally.

The batch code was expected from us

It identifies your production. We publish a dc sku and a case pack, and no lot number, which the compounding property names as the same gap under cGMP.

Refillable was read as general purpose

The statement says refill with pesticide only and do not reuse for any other purpose. The permission is to refill, not to repurpose.

And the whole section was applied to a product outside it

Part 156 is pesticide labeling. A shampoo with no pesticidal claim is not reached by it, and nothing on these pages rules on any product.

And a sample was used to settle it

A container in the hand does not carry its own designation. The sentence follows from what the manufacturer calls it, not from how refillable it looks.

Ask the supplier, then print

The designation has a definite answer and it is not in our data. One question, before artwork.

References

40 CFR 156.140, "Identification of container types". For a nonrefillable container the label must bear the statement "Nonrefillable container.", a reuse statement chosen from options in the section of which the household wording is "Do not reuse or refill this container.", and a recycling or reconditioning statement, the options including "Offer for recycling if available." and "Offer for reconditioning if appropriate." The section also requires a lot number or other code used by the registrant or producer to identify the batch of the pesticide product which is distributed and sold. For a refillable container the required statement is "Refillable Container. Refill this container with pesticide only. Do not reuse this container for any other purpose.", or the same sentence naming a common chemical name in place of the word pesticide. The full set of permitted option wordings is in the section and is not enumerated here. law.cornell.edu

The Davis Pack Supply catalog, measured 19 October 2026. We publish material, capacity, neck finish, height, width, liner, temperature range, case pack and color. We publish no field recording whether a container is refillable or nonrefillable, which is the single attribute 40 CFR 156.140 turns on.

40 CFR part 156 is pesticide labeling. A pet grooming product is reached by it only if the product is a pesticide, which turns on the claims made for it rather than on the category it is sold in. Nothing on these pages states whether any particular product is or is not a pesticide, and nothing addresses registration, establishment or registration numbers, the rest of the content a pesticide label must carry, use directions, worker protection, or state law.

Written from 40 CFR 156.140 and from the catalog as it stood on 19 October 2026. Part 156 is pesticide labeling and reaches a pet grooming product only if that product is a pesticide, which turns on the claims made for it; nothing here rules on any product. Our catalog publishes no field recording whether a container is refillable or nonrefillable, which is the attribute that section turns on. This group's shelf is 80 glass containers with nothing over 120 mL and no pump, sprayer or foamer, while the catalog holds 358 plastic containers between 200 and 600 mL and 121 pump, sprayer and foamer closures that are not routed here.
