Breath freshener spray OEM/ODM manufacturing
Breath Freshener Spray · Mouth Spray · OEM/ODM
A breath freshener spray is a quick-use product for the middle of the day: after a meal, before a meeting, when brushing is not convenient. Users judge it within seconds — is the taste pleasant, is it cool enough, is there a bitter aftertaste, and does the sprayer dispense evenly. Because the volume is small and it is used directly in the mouth, the formula must carry more flavor than a mouthwash without causing a burning sensation, while the solution stays clear and does not clog the nozzle. The packaging is part of the product: swivel or straight nozzle, dose per spray, a pocket-size bottle. Butter-C provides full-service OEM/ODM manufacturing, from formula to labeled finished goods with the cosmetic product notification.
Formula base
A concentrated flavor solution in a water base, with or without alcohol
A breath spray delivers a very small amount each time, so flavor and cooling agents are more concentrated than in a mouthwash, while the base must be clear enough to leave no residue in the nozzle.
Solvents
Purified water; food-grade alcohol for strong cooling lines; glycerin and propylene glycol for alcohol-free lines.
Solubilizers
Poloxamer, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil — keep the flavor clear and dissolved, with no haze.
Flavor and cooling
Mint, green tea mint, peach, strawberry flavors; low-dose menthol.
Actives and taste
Zinc salts and CPC help keep breath fresh; xylitol and sucralose for sugar-free sweetness.
Key technical points
Four factors that determine the quality of a breath freshener spray
Taste within seconds
Flavor, cooling and sweetness are finalized on spray-tested samples; avoiding the bitter aftertaste of zinc and CPC.
No nozzle clogging
A clear solution with no ingredients that crystallize at the nozzle tip over time.
Dose per spray
A spray pump with a suitable output is selected; the label states the number of sprays per use.
Preservation in a small bottle
Alcohol-free lines need a challenge-tested preservative system; the bottle is opened and closed many times a day.
Three formulation directions
Three common types of breath freshener spray
Strong mint
Moderate alcohol, menthol and intense mint flavor; a distinct cooling sensation.
Mild alcohol-free
Polyol base, fruit or green tea mint flavor, xylitol.
Herbal
Green tea, betel leaf, low-dose clove; natural color.
Packaging is planned with the formula
15–30 ml glass or plastic bottles, mechanical spray pumps with swivel or straight nozzles. Aerosol formats are discussed separately.
