Two paper labels on the front face of the bottle and a further label hooked over the neck of the bottle take care of the commercial details and product information. www.unileverfoodsolutions.de Upside-down mustard bottle Alongside mustard in a jar and in a tube, the use of mustard in squeezable upside-down containers is becoming more and more popular. One example of this is the upside-down bottle made from PET for 225ml of preservative-free mustard manufactured by Messrs. Händlmaier of Regensburg. This pleasingly shaped bottle is fitted with an adequately proportioned red hinged lid. Prior to opening for the first time the lid needs to be unscrewed and a sealing plate removed. Now the mus- tard can be dispensed in measured quantities by press- ing on the bottle. Two paper labels with the commercial information printed on them round off the appearance of this product. www.haendlmeier.de Granulate versus the smell of tobacco The French company Impex is marketing, under the brand name of Carlinea and the name ”Air Smok- ing“, 100g of a granulate that gives off a delicate scent of vanilla on contact with a cigarette.
