RPC Kerkrade has developed a new polypropylene bottle in two sizes to meet the differing requirements of specialist bakery, confectionery and ice cream ingredients manufacturer Dreidoppel in Germany.
According to the Netherlands-based RPC unit, the stylish curved ‘grip pack’ design features indented sides with ridges that make the bottle comfortable to hold and product easy to dispense for accurate portion control.
Both bottles are produced in white with a large label area, and the flip cap features a nozzle that can be tailored to different dosing requirements.
The larger 950ml version is blow moulded in monolayer polypropylene for the Dreidoppel company’s Pastarom Classic range of flavourings, supplied to wholesalers; while the co-extruded multilayer 475ml bottle has been created for the Pastarom range of ice cream and dessert toppings for the foodservice sector.
The smaller size bottle incorporates a multi-layer PP/EVOH/PP construction to give the flavours an extended ambient shelf life of up to 18 months.
Both packs are suitable for hot filling.
“The new bottles ideally reflect the quality of our products, and their user-friendliness further enhances brand image,” says Dietmar Hartkopf of Dreidoppel. “We are delighted with RPC Kerkrade’s contribution to this project.”
The design concept for the bottle was devised by Dreidoppel to create an appealing look that at the same time offered maximum convenience for end-users.
RPC Kerkrade worked closely with Dreidoppel in the final development stages, adding the grips on the side to enhance ease of handling.
