Aptar nominated for Cosmopack Award

Dispensing systems company Aptar has been nominated in the Skin Care Packaging Technology category at the Cosmopack 2019 Awards.

Aptar’s dual spray aerosol, Apollo is the first of its kind. It offers two spray patterns or flow rates that are tailor made for each brand. Its twist and lock feature allows users to select the spray pattern that they would like.

The Cosmopack Awards recognises the innovations, technologies improvements and new trends in beauty formulation and packaging design.

Axel Degen, product line manager aerosols at Aptar said, “Aptar’s latest innovation Apollo in twist-to-lock actuators has been selected as one of the finalists of the Cosmopack Award 2019 for the skin care packaging technology.”

Degen continued, “The difference between this actuator and others, is that ours twist and lock one has two inserts, facilitating two spray options. The fine mist or a jet spray options are available within a single pack.”

“This new actuator could be applied to a wide range of applications in the future, such as personal care products like sunscreen, hair care styling or even home care products such as insect sprays. Enabling a choice between different spray rates or performances within one actuator answers another demand prevalent amongst environmentally conscious consumers.”
