The bottles are decorated with informative front and rear labels and the closure consists of a screw-on dispenser cap with an integrated snap-on lid. The packs also feature a sealed attachment plate under- neath the screw cap which provides security against tamper- ing prior to opening. www.oscar.dk PlantBottle for Vio Under the slogan “The bottle that thinks about tomorrow“ Coca- Cola Deutschland is advertis- ing its new ”PlantBottle“, which among others will be used in Germany for the ”Vio“ mineral water. According to Coca-Cola, the new PET bottle is made up of 14% sustainable raw materi- als, 35% of recycled plastic, it is 100 % recyclable and thus saves valuable resources. A belly label made from plastic foil and an elaborate push-pull drinking cap with tear-off tamper-proof ring and additional tamper-proof cap make the innovation complete. www.vio.de Robust and with maximum grip The French foodstuffs manufacturer Melfor of Mulhouse is selling a litre of Citrona lemon juice for refining foods in a yellow PET bottle. On the outside the bottle features – in addition to the area provided for affixing the label – a stabilis- ing, maximum grip honeycomb structure. A printed, snap-on dispensing screw cap with an integrated, tear-off tamper-proof strip rounds off the unusual appearance of this product. www.melfor.com Premium in blue Sylter Quelle, a company from Rantum, is now offer- ing its natural mineral water with added carbonation in premium bottles in a shapely design with a one litre con- tent. The blue coloured bot- tles featuring a black screw cap with tamper-proof strip have No-label–look adhesive labell affixed to the front and rear. The front label fea- tures silver printing so as to emphasise the quality of the product. www.sylt-quelle.de Neat and convenient dispensing Unilever France is offer- ing 490g Barbecue Sauce in France under the brand name “Aurora“ in a handy PET upside down bottle. The function of the self-closing silicone membrane is precisely explained on the labels which are adapted to the shape of the packaging. Prior to initial use the complete lid must be unscrewed and a sealing membrane sealed on to the clo- sure removed. The high restor- ing force of PET is positively ideal for packaging variations of this type. www.amora.com
