On Display--Bottles
Stretch Blow Process
A company uses a refined stretch blow process and PET plastic to create heavy-wall containers. Custom-molded containers are offered, as well as stock bottles and jars. Bottles range in size from 7 to 400 ml, and jars range in size from 3 to 570 ml. Many color and frost options are available, and the company can match any color in translucent, opaque, or pearlized material. Decorating and graphic design services are also provided, including hot-stamp foil, pad printing, silk-screening, and spray frosting. Inoac Packaging Group, Bardstown, KY.
Brush Tottle
An on-off brush tottle features a brush applicator that measures 22 mm, an on and off switch, and a 40-ml polypropylene bottle. The product is suitable for application of creams, lotions, and foundations. Using a bottle to house the product makes it easier to fill than a tube, according to the company. The bottle screws into the head section, which has the brush and cap preassembled. To access the contents, the consumer removes the cap, turns the switch to the on position, and squeezes the bottle. Cosmopak Corp., London, UK.
Aluminum Bottle
A self-tanning product is packaged in an 8-oz brushed-aluminum Cosmo round bottle with silk-screened decoration. It is topped with a black fine-mist sprayer. The bottle, along with a patented full-hand applicator mitt, is packaged in a clear, flexible tube to enhance its upscale appeal. Cosmetic Packaging Group, O. Berk Co., Union, NJ.

PET Bottles
A company offers a stock line of heavy-wall PET bottles that offer high consumer quality perception and long product shelf life.

Other products available include PET Glass, which has the look and feel of glass, and PET Metals, which is designed to mimic the look of various metals such as aluminum, brass, copper, gun metal, and pewter.
