The "dispensing jar" recently developed and marketed by Qualipac has made further progress in its conception.
The dispensing principle associated to the jar was already a clever one. Once the lid of the jar is removed a simple finger push on a piston releases a dose of cream through a dispensing orifice (membrane). This dispensing jar allows simple gestures with no outside contaminants.
As far as security is concerned, the jar was already equipped with tamper-evident indicators. "The elastomeric membrane incorporates a first use indicator", people at Qualipac explain. But today, the piston is made from anti-bacterial polymers to help protect the cream in contact with it.
The capacity is 1,7oz/50 ml, with an evacuation rate above 95%
Filling is achieved through the bottom of the jar (bottom base opened), piston being in the up position and lid closed. The packaging operations are reduced to filling and connecting (hook-ups) the bottom base. All other operations, namely heat sealing of the membrane, screwing of the lid and finishing are carried out upstream by Qualipac.
