RPC Bramlage
A new XL5 airless pump from RPC Bramlage offers a large dose and ease of use for
highly viscous products such as spa and hair care, as well as larger family-size or promotional
body and personal care product packs. The XL5 pump fits onto the 500mL
AirFree Vinci cylindrical bottle and delivers an accurate dosage of 5mL each time. It
also helps to evacuate at least 90% of the product from the container. In addition,
the metal-free pathway eliminates the potential oxidation of cream and a lock-down
feature ensures safe transit of the product throughout the supply chain.

Tubex
Tubex has launched Neucan 2.0
Aerosol Cans Light, made of a new
alloy that is less weight and uses 17%
less material. The alloy was jointly
developed by slug suppliers Neuman
and Rheinfelden and packaging
manufacturer Tubex Group. The
goal of the product was to achieve
sustainability through weight reduction
by combining alloy components
and a special slug manufacturing
process. Tubex executives said the
use of pre-consumer recycling aluminum
has always been a standard for
Tubex and its slug producers, to allow
for different recycling scenarios.
Tubex also takes other environmentally
friendly measures such as using
powder coatings and water-based
lacquers as well as having in-house
water treatment to avoid sewage.
