Crown Announces New Slim, Easy-To-Grip Packaging for Personal Care Products
Shorter heights of 96mm are ideal for sample-size and travel-size products that meet strict airport carry-on regulations and allow consumers to take their favorite products with them wherever they go.
2/15/2011 --- Crown Aerosol Packaging North America, a business unit of Crown Holdings, Inc., announces that it has upgraded its Spartanburg, South Carolina facility to include the manufacture of slim 45mm diameter containers. Suitable for a range of cosmetic and personal care applications, including shaving cream, sun tan lotion, perfume, hair spray, body spray and deodorant, the package’s slender profile makes it easier to grip for women’s smaller hands.
The steel containers are available in heights ranging up to 178mm, giving brand owners added flexibility. Shorter heights of 96mm are ideal for sample-size and travel-size products that meet strict airport carry-on regulations and allow consumers to take their favorite products with them wherever they go.
“Cosmetic and personal care purchases are very intimate choices for consumers, with many staying loyal to brands that have proven to work for them,” says Jim Wilson, President, CROWN Aerosol Packaging North America. “Incorporating packaging that enhances convenience and portability so the product fits easily into consumers’ busy lifestyles can build brand loyalty even more.”
Steel's preference is further enhanced with its strong sustainability platform. Steel aerosol containers are 100% recyclable and all steel containers have a recycling rate of 65% in the United States, helping save 70 percent of the energy required for primary production. The material can also be recycled infinitely with no degradation in quality.
