Custom 120ml Bottle Boxes & 120ml Bottle Packaging
120ml is one of the busiest sizes we print for. It is the sweet spot for serum, hair oil, dropper bottle, e liquid, syrup and travel skincare, which means the same volume turns up across completely different industries. We print a lot of 120ml bottle packaging at ZEE Packaging and the brief changes every single time depending on what is in the bottle.
Same Volume, Very Different Bottle
Before we quote anything we need to know the bottle shape, because 120ml comes in a dozen forms.
- Tall slim dropper narrow footprint, needs a taller 120ml bottle box format
- Boston round wider base, common in oil and tincture
- Pump bottle the pump adds real height, easy to underestimate
- Square or flat sits neat in retail 120ml bottle packaging
- PET spray bottle light, tolerant of a slimmer board
- Glass amber heavy, needs more support underneath
Send the bottle with cap or pump fully seated and we measure from there.
Dimensions We Run Most
Every one of our 120ml bottle boxes is built to the actual bottle, but these come up regularly:
- 2" x 2" x 5.5" for tall slim dropper
- 2.25" x 2.25" x 5" for Boston round
- 2.5" x 2.5" x 6.5" for pump bottle
- 1.75" x 1.75" x 6" for narrow serum
- 5" x 2.5" x 5.5" for two bottle 120ml bottle packaging set
- 7" x 5" x 6" for a gift set with three units
Cap height is where people slip up. A pump can add an inch and a half and suddenly the carton doesn't close flat.
Board Weight Matters Here
Glass at 120ml carries real weight for its size, so thin board is a false economy in 120ml bottle packaging.
- 18pt to 20pt for standard glass in 120ml bottle boxes
- 16pt is fine for PET and plastic
- 24pt when the bottle is heavy or the box is tall
- SBS C1S for clean printed retail carton
- Kraft board for organic and apothecary ranges
- Rigid greyboard 36pt for premium gift 120ml bottle boxes
- Corrugated E flute for ecommerce shipping
Below 16pt a tall carton bows at the middle once it sits on a shelf.
Structural Options
- Reverse and straight tuck end, the everyday choice
- Seal end carton for tamper resistance
- Auto lock bottom when the bottle has weight
- Sleeve over a tray for premium 120ml bottle packaging
- Window carton so the liquid color shows
- Mailer box for direct to customer orders
Print And Finish
- Offset for volume, digital for short run 120ml bottle boxes
- CMYK plus Pantone spot color
- Soft touch lamination, very popular in skincare
- Matte film with spot UV over the logo
- Foil stamping in gold, silver and copper
- Emboss and deboss for texture
- Window patch with clear PET film
Copy That Has To Be On Pack
- Net contents in ml and fl oz
- Full ingredient list, INCI order for cosmetics
- Batch and expiry space, leave it blank for coding
- Warning or usage directions
- Manufacturer name and address
- Barcode with proper quiet zone
Our prepress team checks every panel against the dieline so nothing gets trimmed at the edge.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need the bottle or just the measurement?
Measurements work fine if they include cap or pump height. If you are unsure, mail us a sample and we size the 120ml bottle packaging here.
Will glass need an insert?
For single bottle usually not, snug sizing handles it. For multipack we always build a divider so the glass doesn't knock together.
What is the price of a 120ml bottle box?
Rough estimate is $0.30 to $0.85 per unit for folding carton, $0.90 to $2.20 for mailer and $2.00 to $5.00 for rigid at moderate quantities. Foil and window patch add to it. Shipping is included in our price. This is estimate only, so ask our team for a exact quote.
Can you print inside the carton?
Yes. Inside print is cheap and it works well for ingredient story or usage direction.
How small can the ingredient text go?
6pt is our floor. Below that it starts filling in on press, especially on uncoated kraft.
Can you do a window on a tall carton?
Yes with PET patch. On very narrow panel we keep the window smaller so the carton keeps its rigidity.
Do you supply bottle labels as well?
We do. Lots of clients order carton and label in one job so the colors match across both.
