RPC’s Berry UCP/Zeller Plastik Norwich in the UK has announced that it is supplying child-resistant closures (CRCs) to chemicals contract filler Liquiform for a number of cleaning products supplied to major retailers.
A part of the UK-based DNR Group, Liquiform has selected Berry’s the Fez Angle Neck Bleach Squeeze & Turn CRC and 38mm Clic-loc closure for cleaning products.
The two caps are made available in red colour
The two caps, which are produced in red colour, are designed to offer a high-quality appearance as well as ease of use and maximum safety. The packs said are said to meet the ISO 8317, the EU standard for child-resistance.
The firm said in a statement: “The Fez closure incorporates patented aperture technology developed by the local Development team in the plant. This provides the single-walled CRC with the necessary flexibility in the squeeze band to create a closure that maintains ease of access for an older population without sacrificing child-resistant performance.”
Berry said that the lightweight Fez closure, which has been designed using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) software to model the physical response of a structure to stress, offers important material savings and sustainability benefits while maintaining high performance.
The lightweighting process has reduced the weight of the cap by 40% compared to the previous closure format.
Liquiform director Brian Wiper said: “The closures from Berry UCP/Zeller Plastik are both attractive and functional and provide the vital combination of consumer safety and ease of use that delivers a positive image for the brand owner.”
In September this year, Berry Global company Superfos has provided its SuperLift container for UK confectionery company Tangerine Confectionery’s Barratt sweets.
Tangerine has used SuperLift colourful, and creative pack to re-launch its Barratt seasonal range for UK consumers.
SuperLift tubs, which are made of recyclable polypropylene, are provided in vivid colours to improve the shelf appeal of the products.
