Made of 100 per cent polypropylene: ALPLAhana has developed a unique mono-material dispenser pump with a down-lock function. The joint venture between the international packaging and recycling specialist ALPLA and HANA Innovation from South Korea is thus creating a fully recyclable and compact solution for various liquid dispensers. The product innovation will be presented at the Beautyworld Middle East 2024 from 28 to 30 October in Dubai.
‘Our solution strengthens the circular economy, saves material and increases recyclability. It does not require a metal spring, requires fewer components and some of them can also be made from post-consumer recycled material (PCR),’ reports Sree Hari R Nair, Global Head of Business Pumps and Devices at ALPLA. Thanks to the stable and durable plastic spring, the patented technology allows the contents to be safely stored in the down-lock position. The dispenser offers customers added logistical value and saves shelf space.
