Say “Hello” to Award-Winning Custom Healthcare Closures for Mouthwash

Harsh lines. Serious designs. Aggressive contours. These are the characteristics common to many healthcare closures and packaging used for dental care products. To stand out in this market, oral care company, Hello Products, designed its packaging to reflect a more inviting, colorful appearance. Customers aren’t the only ones taking note. The packaging industry has also recognized the company’s innovative healthcare packaging style.

In fact, Hello Mouth Wash and Toothpaste was honored with the Bernard M. Seid “Best of Show” Award at the 2014 National Association of Container Distributors (NACD) Packaging Awards. The awards were held during the NACD 2014 Annual Convention on April 10, 2014 in Fort Lauderdale, FL.

At the Packaging Awards, judges examined, rated and evaluated packages in nine categories, including beverage, cosmetic/personal care, and drug/pharmaceutical. Two special awards were also presented: NACD People's Choice Award and the Best of Show award. Judging was based on packaging innovation, sustainability, graphics, decoration, shape, closure, texture, ease-of-use, consumer appeal and technical merit.

So what’s so different about Hello’s healthcare packaging? The company worked with TricorBraun and other packaging partners to create a clear PET mouthwash bottle (in 473- and 985-mL fill sizes) that features a curved contour and flavor ring at the top—enhancing its overall shelf impact. MRP Solutions created a custom healthcare closure for the bottle that includes a permanent PE flavor ring that snaps onto the bottle and tamper-evident pull-tab closure, which is the first of its kind in the oral care industry. MRP also made a clear-clarified PP cup/overcap that threads onto the flavor ring.

MRP truly stands out among healthcare closure manufacturers because of its custom closure capabilities. If you can dream it, we can build it—whether it’s an innovative exterior design, product embossing or unique dispensing functionality. MRP is ready to help you create some award-winning healthcare closures for your next package design!
