The latest development from packaging firm Lindal is looking to rid antiperspirants and sun care products of overcaps and use less material with its new twist and lock actuator.

The Lindal Group’s new overcap-free, twist and lock actuator, Sunny, is said to offer an alternative to deodorant and self-tanning product makers.

The Sunny actuator’s ergonomic design was developed for easy actuation and high top-load resistance, for use in a wide range of personal care product applications, with the company claiming that it is already winning the attention of savvy brand owners, and a major retail launch is imminent.

Locally produced

“With our Sunny, we have a full-featured, advanced actuator, produced locally, competitively priced and available now,”​ says Moacir Camargo, Lindal Brazil’s Managing Director. 

The new actuator from the aerosol packagers is the first to be produced at the company’s new Itupeva facility in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and represents an enhanced supply chain benefit for customers throughout the Americas and globally, according to the Lindal Brazil chief.

“Here is the first example of how our custom-built, expandable new facility can benefit customers throughout the hemisphere and around the globe,” ​continues Camargo.

“And in emerging markets, where rising local market consumer spending power will boost demand for personal care products and innovative aerosol packaging solutions, our offerings will have particular appeal,” ​he adds.

The bigger picture

Robert F. Brands, president of Lindal - Americas, adds that the launch of the Sunny actuator in the company’s new facility will help shorten supply chains and increase return on investment for multinational customers, as well as for contract fillers based in South America. 

Brands also says that Sunny is just the start and that more can be expected from Lindal in this area as it looks to enhance efficiencies and provide optimal product quality, service and support, in order to help its customers meet their goals.
