A recent addition to the well-known shower gel featuring a crown cap and packaged in a PET bottle containing 200ml is a magic washing foam com- plete with glitter effect. Shak- ing the bottle allows the glit- ter particles to be released and distributed around the contents. The product which features extract of buddleia flowers is discharged via a lockable pump dispenser. www.dm.de Winter edition Bearing in mind that many products incorporate packaging that is coordi- nated with the time of year or adapted to take account of the season, Colgate- Palmolive introduced a ”Winter Limited Edition“ of its transparent liquid soap. The white tinged bottle in PET with a content of 250ml and a gold-coloured pump dispenser complete with actuation lock has been made available with four different front labels by way of collective appeal. www.colgate.de Shapely shampoo bottle The tapered PET bottle for Guhl Shampoo “Pure & Invigorating“ with a content of 200ml shows how a prod- uct can be packed to give an impres- sion of exclusivity. The transparent bottle is filled with the slightly bluish tinted product so that it is impossi- ble to discern the filling level. A shiny silver screw-on hinged lid that can be operated with one hand and two translucent shaped labels made from plastic round off the ‘cool’ impression. www.guhl.de An all-round good thing Sonax, the specialists in motor vehicle care prod- ucts, have recently been marketing their windscreen wash “Sonax Extreme“, which is specially designed for the summer months, in a transparent PET bottle with a content of 3l. The bottle incorporates a base on which it can stand upright and a pouring surface at an angle to this. The bottle is formed with an integrated handle enabling targeted pouring into the screen wash container. The container is sealed with a tamper-proof screw closure complete with carrier. Self-adhesive labels to front and rear complement the packaging. www.sonax.de
