What we actually stock for this

Updated

On this page7
Two things, and they are worth describing separately: the bottles, and the child-resistant closures.

The containers

Ninety-four that qualify for this use, from about 15 ml to 325 ml, of which 84 are PET and 10 are PP. Forty-eight of the 94 block light. The dominant neck finishes are 38-400 and 45-400, and most of them are packer bottles, which is the familiar wide-mouth tablet shape.

The child-resistant closures

Seventy-one in the catalog, across ten neck finishes from 20-400 to 89-400. Measured against the bottles above, 85 of the 89 that state a neck have a CR closure in the same notation. The exception is 43-400, which has none.

What that does and does not give you

It gives you components that can be assembled into a package and, for a product not required to be in special packaging, something meaningfully harder for a small child than a plain cap. It does not give you a tested package, and the earlier pages say why that matters.

An honest caveat on the matching

Elsewhere in this library container pages list closures verified against the neck. These 71 are not in that verified set, so the claim available here is that the neck notation matches. Check the fit physically before committing to a quantity.

PET, and why it suits this

Clear or amber, light, impact resistant, and it takes a label well. For a container that is handled daily, carried in a bag and occasionally dropped, breakage resistance matters more than the inertness glass would give.

Wide mouth, because tablets have to come out

A packer bottle is wide so that contents can be tipped into a hand without shaking. That is a usability requirement for the same population the senior adult test is about.
