What the jury said
The conventional combination of dispenser can with separate lid was enhanced with an attached closure in this award-winning submission. This guarantees that the conventional separate lid can no longer get lost during use and extends the shelf life of the pipe sealing cord contents.
The innovation is the outcome of a comprehensive customer survey, which identified a need to make the existing container more user-friendly.
The judges were particularly impressed by this solution’s use of mono-material and the new potential for convenient and practical one-handed use.
