Producers of liquid products such as certain glues, chemicals and other solvents need suitable containers. To meet this need, bottles and cans are, until now, the most suitable.
From volumes of a few millimeters to several liters
Bottles and cans are widely used industrial packaging for optimal transport and storage of liquid products. Bottles differ from cans in their capacity, since they have a much smaller volume than cans. The volume of a bottle is between 2 and 1,500 milliliters, while the volume of a canister can exceed 10 liters.
Beyond this difference in volume, bottles differ from cans in the materials they are made of. If bottles, for practical reasons, are most often made of plastic or glass, cans are generally made of metal, even if plastic remains common. The canister has a larger capacity and is more robust, which makes it particularly suitable for wholesale, long-distance transport and export.
Packaging adapted to countless products
The packaging of liquid products is demanding and the packaging of bottles and cans are versatile enough to meet this high level of requirement. Thus, these two types of containers are used in various fields such as construction, automotive industry, food industry etc.
Various products can be stored, transported or detailed in cans or bottles. Adhesives (cyano, polyurethane, acrylic, vinyl, neoprene, PVC or nitrile), greases and oils, sealants, resins, hardeners, solvents, caustic products and other chemical products intended for the industry can be stored perfectly in bottles or cans. The latter can be made of glass, metal or various types of plastic to suit the nature of the product stored.
Bottles and cans are therefore universal packaging for liquid or fluid products and are used in most industries.
Containers compatible with logistic and marketing needs
In addition to being suitable for a variety of products and uses, packaging in cans and bottles is also logistically convenient. These packages are, in fact, compatible with traceability markings. They can be silk-screened or offset printed. They can also be labeled in a more traditional way so that the packaging can mention various useful information such as the batch number, the DLU.
The packaging in cans and bottles is also compatible with secondary packaging to facilitate their handling. Thus, they can be put in kits or co-packing.
Filling of bottles and cans
Bottles and cans protect the product, are a good marketing tool and facilitate logistics.
