Crown introduces new sample and travel-sized flip-top closures

Crown Zeller has introduced two new small-sized flip-top packaging products for small bottles and tubes, suitable for use with hotel amenities, sample- or travel-sized toiletries and cosmetics products.

Crown Zeller said its new 15-415 Smoothwall Flip-Top bottle closure is ideal for miniature bottles of shampoo, lotion, hand sanitiser and other personal care products.

Since the closure no longer has to be removed to dispense product, it added, this provides a tremendous benefit to hotels by virtually eliminating clogged drains caused by lost caps, a common maintenance expense.

For additional brand support, the company pointed out that the top of the closure can be embossed with a company or hotel logo.

Crown has also introduced a similar flip-top closure for small tubes, the 1-inch M8 Flip-Top, suitable for applications such as hand creams, toothpaste, cosmetics, and other products.

"For decades, Crown has provided superior dispensing closures for the world's most trusted consumer products," noted Crown Zeller's marketing coordinator Nancy Kane. "It is with great pride that we are now offering the same calibre of product in smaller sizes to accommodate this very important market." The bottle closure comes in orifice sizes of .125-inch and .250-inch, while the tube closure is 1 inch in diameter with an .187-inch orifice. Both feature a crab's claw seal and can be produced in any colour to meet design requirements.

Crown Zeller is a subsidiary of Philadephia-headquartered international packaging company Crown Holdings.
