As pet owners stroll the aisles of their local pet store, they are greatly influenced by what they see on the shelf in terms of packaging for their favorite brands of food and treats. According to a recent article in Petfood Industry magazine, discerning pet owners want products that are packaged in a convenient, creative way. Instead of multi-wall paper packaging, pet food and care companies are favoring flexible plastic packaging....
Glugging. Dripping. Spilling. These are the problems caused by many plastic dispensing closures. The sleek bottle may be attractive, but then when you go to pour the liquid or sauce, you have a big mess on your hands.
Who knows more about the importance of convenient closures than a restaurant manager? In the kitchen, flip top caps and dispensing closures can be used for sauce bottles, food containers, spices and seasonings and more. According to the general manager of one of Cleveland’s premier restaurants, “I work long hours in the kitchen—anything that makes my life easier is definitely worth using.”
The best way to gauge a product’s value is to put it in the hands of the consumer. And that’s just what MRP Solutions did with its LiquiFlapper® flip top caps. The focus group was organized to assess the needs and preferences of consumers of premium salad dressing.
Consumers who use spices and seasonings frequently in their cooking want a package that is easy to open, allows portion control and maintains product safety and freshness. To build brand loyalty, spice and seasoning manufacturers need to incorporate dispensing closures that create a great experience for consumers—each and every time they use the product.
When it comes to food and condiment production, controlled dispensing is essential—especially for squeezable products. MRP Solutions provides superior flip top cap solutions that deliver the perfect amount of product for consumers with each and every use. Consider this success story from a spicy mustard manufacturer:
When it comes to the pet industry, consumers are more interested in the quality, taste and functionality of a product; they are much less concerned about the price. Therefore, it’s vital to select packaging that clearly communicates quality, taste and functionality, while making the product stand out on the store shelf.
Why are they so important? With more regulations than any other industry, chemical products must be packaged in materials that can withstand harsh liquids and other substances. They also must provide a strong barrier to prevent leakage and dispense without glugging or spilling—all of which protect the safety of the consumer.
Consumers today are looking for products that incorporate plastic closures that offer form as well as function. In response to this growing demand, MRP Solutions has just announced its new MegaFlap plastic closure. This contemporary closure features a full open orifice for easy access—no matter how large your hand is! And the built-in scoop retention mechanism makes product access even easier without creating a mess.
Package designers know that a container’s plastic closure, though perhaps small in size, can really make a big impact on customers and distributors. USANA Health Sciences of Salt Lake City understood this when it decided to develop a new brand logo and package for its line of vitamin and mineral supplements in early 2012. USANA partnered with several companies to complete the redesign, including MRP Solutions. The project was even featured in...
