We use amber pharmaceutical-grade plastic bottles for our essential oils dispensed in sizes of 8 oz. and larger to prevent glass breakage while in transit to the customer. This is based on years of experience shipping these products. We highly recommend that any essential oil bottled in plastic be promptly transferred to amber glass upon receipt and not left inside any plastic bottle. Amber glass bottles are sold separately should you need to purchase some. This matter is discussed in detail in question #10.
