Cosmetics packaging pump often Changxin

Care product pump packaging market

Before a bottle of new fragrances attracts consumers, cosmetic enhancements or skin care products do indeed work, formula content must first be passed on. If the sprayer only clangs or the dispensing pump is clogged, consumers will be disappointed before experiencing the product.

In view of this, suppliers of spray or pump dispensers are striving to develop and improve methods of delivering cosmetics, fragrances and personal care products; this not only ensures that the product performance meets the requirements, but also provides a distinctive design for the appearance of the package.

Economically

For most distributor suppliers, sales were better in the first half of 2003 than in the second half of the year. Valois of America had a strong sales momentum during the first half of last year: an increase of 15% from 2002, but “subsequent demand seems to have stagnated. From August to now (in early October), we only increased by 8%. After the summer recession, the economy has been The demand has continued to be strong, with no particular peaks or troughs,” said the company's sales director.

Valois's distributor business for cosmetics and care products is growing, and fragrance sprayers are relatively flat. “Although there is still product launch, the entire fragrance product has not grown, but because cosmetics and care products have become more complex and sensitive, there is a demand for packages that release a predetermined amount to prevent the remaining contents from being contaminated,” he said.

Rexam Dispensing Systems Co., Ltd. in New York increased its sales by 5-10% in the first half of last year compared to the same period in 2002, but "due to overall weakness in the market, it looks like it will decline in the second half of the year," said the company's vice president of sales and marketing.

Olan de Mexico, the manufacturer of spray pumps and dispensers, was a record year in 2003. According to the company, Olan gained market share due to the launch of its new product, the X2-based pump system. Olegnowicz predicts that 2004 will be a good year.

Seemingly simple complex system

Estee Lauder's new Beyond Paradise fragrance uses Rexam's ultra low profile crimpless pump (SLPP), which encapsulates the clear ion resin Surlyn driver. Rexam and its sister department provided loops, pumps and actuators, assembled all three parts and pressed the complete structure to the bottom. The driver can lock after rotating.

Valois has developed the Replica Plug, which is an enhancement of the existing fragrance pump Replica. The Replica Plug is internally fixed; that is, the base of the pump is fixed to the neck of the bottle. According to the company, this product is manufactured according to the European aerosol organization FEA standard FEA13mm. "Our customers can use the Replica Plug as a dispenser on glass or plastic bottles, which can be used very precisely to avoid any leakage."

Market promoters are constantly seeking ways to make packaging unique. Pfeiffer, headquartered in Germany, has developed the Side Actuation system. The company introduced that this system allows the spray mechanism to brake by pressing in lateral rather than vertical direction. The attraction of this lateral principle lies in its market potential, and the requirement for a pump or protective cover becomes obsolete. But above all, this new ergonomic design allows the bottle to remain in the hand while delivering the contents - just sideways. The system is very flexible and depends on the needs of each customer. It can change different materials - plastics or metals, and contents; it can also be personalized through the initial decoration to achieve a harmonious and stylish design.

Olan's X2 pump system is patented worldwide. It uses a double coil spring to separate the power of closing and extracting, providing a very low cost for a high quality sprayer. According to the company, X2 is described as "pre-pressurized" and is a very fine spray. It ensures gentle ergonomics and a balanced press, just like a complete design, smooth atomization, competitive price and excellent lead time. ”

High-end appearance needs

According to the analysis of experts, the development direction of cosmetics packaging is gentrification, such as airless dispensers, packaging with fine spray pumps and/or dispensers inside containers; marketers are seeking high-end appearances - hot stamping, metal sleeves ( Metal
Sleeves), custom colors. Even small company products have high-end appearance.

The Drug & Cosmetic Sales Corp Group caters to the needs of the small market and introduced a range of 5,000 to 20,000 units. The Cosmetic Packaging Group also offers a wide range of pumps and sprayers that work with the company's range of glass and plastic containers. According to the company, matching the product's viscosity, particle size, and desired finish, the choice included fine spray to mist sprays.

New pump delivering new content

The growth in care products has driven the need for pumps that can dispense clean and efficient formulas with a specific content. The Cocoon product is an evolution of the existing Evolution pump from Valois: The self-sealing technology has been added to prevent the contents from drying out at the nozzle. According to the company, this is a patented polymer insert that can be molded to match any color with other parts of the container or an element of the batch or pattern. When the pump is pressed, the contents are dispensed; when the pressure disappears, the insert opening is closed. "This will undoubtedly add a lot to packaging because it can prevent leakage and blockage, thereby helping the contents to avoid contamination."

Valois' Satine is another high-dose cosmetic pump that dispenses 500mcl of content product at a time. It looks like an Evolution pump, which allows the applicator to design the same series of products with similar looking pumps.

Saint-Gobain Calmar, based in California, USA, has also developed a new series of pump dispensers for cosmetics/care products. According to reports, the new pump designed by Calmar has a delicate appearance and technological innovations to deliver unique makeup content. Developed for high-viscosity formulations, Aria packages a patented design that places the spring outside the fluid path. Since no metal parts come into contact with the contents formulation, there is no possibility of corrosion or contamination. The dispenser head has an ergonomic finger pad that can be easily locked during travel. The Aria currently in production can deliver 170 to 250 mcl at a time. The Sonnet, which was launched at the end of September last year, is a larger model of Aria and can deliver 500 microliters of medium dose at a time.

New York’s PKG Group is the exclusive supplier of Lumson and Maplast, the Italian packaging accessories manufacturer. Lumson has developed a unique hand-pressure sprayer Tricos that smoothly integrates with the sides of the container. It can automatically discharge, especially for sunscreen lotions. Maplast has an interesting pump that can deliver two kinds of contents from the same package. This duo called the package is suitable for containing two related products, such as day cream and night cream. Maplast also has a double pattern of fine sprayers.

SeaquistPerfect Dispensing debuted several dispenser seals on the HBA. Moritz is a twist/rotate/lock aerosol brake without a top cover or lid. The company introduced the product and said, "Consumers don't like over-covering, because they may lose. Because the lock can prevent external splashing, this package is very good for travel products." Seaquist's EuroLock is a There is a larger, more comfortable finger pad for twisting/locking the fine spray pump. It has dual injection welded closures, either monochromatic or bicolor.

All-in-one container

World Wide Packaging demonstrated a new cylindrical package on the HBA that can deliver very viscous content by reversing a small hole or agglomeration behind the bottom. Drug&Cosmetic Sales is a supplier of single-piece airless dispensing containers for Mega Pump. The company also offers fine sprayers, and its unobtrusive control valve is currently very fashionable.

There is a sponge applicator from Maplast's new round bottom bottle, which can smoothly apply foundation or imitation products. The sponge has antibacterial properties and can be sealed to prevent leakage; in addition, the sponge can also be unscrewed for cleaning.

Far more than a foam blowing agent

Airspray International has established foaming agent technology as an industry standard. The company's president, Robert Brands, stressed that "it's not just a fashion." On the HBA, the company introduced a new concept for consumer product development - the foaming fragrance system (foaming
Fragrance).

"End product appeal comes from perceived quality, luxury, availability, and ease of use," Brand said. He explained that with this bubbling fragrance system, consumers can apply the exact amount of product to the exact site without dripping, soiling, staining or wasting. “And this instant single-press foam cream gives the product a luxurious touch,” he said.

Brand also introduced that Airspray has exported more than 350 million foam pumps in the past five years. This mechanical device produces a precise mixture of liquid and gas with a simple press.

The popularity of Airspray foam packaging is moving from one type of product to another. This type of foaming device has been successful in children's soap hand sanitizers and they are now beginning to bring containers into the shower. Airguard now designs Waterguard, a series of foaming devices that can be used in wet environments. Waterguard includes various content outputs and sizes. Bath & Body Works selected Waterguard Blister Packaging for its Pure Simplicity Body Wash product.

Emsar of Stratford is launching EcoFoam Squeeze Foamer. According to the company, this is a brand new way to create a bubble. The full plastic Eco-Foam distributes the contents by squeezing the bottom. Because there are no metal parts, it can be recycled. This type of delivery can be applied on one hand, making it ideal for direct delivery of foams to the skin or hair, such as for suntans, body washes and shampoos. Emsar plans to launch EcoFoam pumps with 24/410 and 28/410 bottleneck specifications early this year.

Taplast of Italy developed Nuvola, a fully plastic foam pump that meets the standard 28-mm SP bottleneck and is said to be more compact. It includes an external air compression chamber that seals the bellows in an elastic manner. According to reports, this dual function has been reduced in size and is the lightest bubbler device for 17 gr. (others are 28 gr).

Portable leakproof products

Consumer demand for cosmetics and utensils packaging is light and does not spill or leak. Emsar has developed the Portable Anti-Clog Pump, a fine atomizer with a lid that locks the contents. A hinged piece is ejected to open the dispenser and closed backwards; this cover also prevents the pump from clogging while ensuring complete lightness. Aesthetically designed, this cover can be made in a contrasting color to the rest of the dispenser, creating additional design considerations on the shelf. In addition, thanks to its 360-degree spray characteristics, this pump is ideal for one-handed applications that spray in any direction.

The Minis developed by Emsar solves the size problem of travel packages in a complete package of bottle shapes. There are now two types of pump options: Mini Mist, a 15 mm snap on a fine sprayer, and Mini Treat, an easy-to-relock emulsion pump. These bottles range in size from 7.5 to 30 ml and come in several shapes and many decorative options.

Pfeiffer's new rotary dispensing pen (Rotation Dispensing Pen) solves the problem of perfume leakage in the bag. It is very practical and convenient, the button has a protection, it will not automatically trigger. This dispensing pen is packaged in different filling volumes and materials, plastic or aluminum casings, and also has a unique look of ceramic or wood; it can also be decorated with a painted or plated surface. This package is suitable for sprays, gels and creams.
