Closure innovation will still be a trend in the development of cosmetics packaging.Good pumps and sprays can push the pack to a higher level.

 

Plastic dispensing closures, lotion pumps and sprays are all predicted to register a CAGR of more than 3.5% to 2016. This overall quest for added value will mainly be at the expense of plastic screw closures, but will also affect flexible plastic in more developing regions. Price will of course remain a very sensitive element, but the actual benefit of the overall packaging solution perceived by the consumer, be it for easier consumption on the go or simply a sense of treating oneself to a “better” product, will be essential in the purchasing decision. Inroads made in airless technology in particular will bode well for lotion but also spray pumps as brand owners’ interest in better preservation of their products shows no sign of weakening.

 

We can expect to see different closures in recent future as the trend calls for newly designed caps for cosmetics packaging.
