One example of this is Anti-Hairloss Tonic which is packaged in a 125ml bottle made from white coloured PET and which is applied to the hair when still damp and/or to the crown of the head and massaged in. The slimline, waisted bottle fits snugly in the hand and the screw-on pump sprayer makes for easier dispensing. A clip-on sleeve protects the dispenser from faulty operation and this prevents any downward pressure on the pump. The directly printed bottle is enclosed at the PoS in a card- board box with an automatic base and an internal, sepa- rate chamber for the detailed application instructions. www.headandshoulders.com Air freshener in PET “Denk mit“, one of the own label brand names of the German discounter dm, is selling various air fresheners in a PET bottle with a content of 150ml. The stand-alone, transparent bottle is equipped with a closure which has a sponge on its under- side. This conveys the volatile product upwards where it “vapor- ises”. The fragrancing strength is set by twisting / screwing the closure anticlockwise. The bottle is decorated by means of a sleeve label that is pulled over the closure. This not only acts as a tamper evident seal, but also protects the product from evaporating during transport and storage. www.dm.de
