Solvent-free spray adhesive in shapely PET bottles

Eclectic Products, Inc., Eugene, OR, has debuted new solvent-free, high-bond-strength E6000 Spray Adhesive, packaged in custom-contoured 8-oz PET bottles with a pinched-waist shape.

The fast-drying, non-toxic, low-odor adhesive is well-suited to accommodate a range of applications, including paper, fabric, leather, and glass. This latex-based product does not contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and does not emit toxic fumes or incorporate flammable propellants often associated with solvent-based products.

To package this new adhesive, Eclectic Products wanted a distinctive-looking, non-metal, “female shopper friendly” bottle that could fit into a smaller hand. Also considered essential was a pump closure that could deliver a controlled spray pattern without dripping or over-spraying.

The company teamed up with packaging consultant Berlin Packaging to design and source the optimum market-attractive container solution for this new product. After carefully reviewing Eclectic’s criteria, Berlin Packaging recommended custom-blow-molded, hour-glass-shaped bottles supplied by Sonic Plastics, topped with Mark VI Mist Sprayers from MeadWestvaco that deliver a controlled medium-spray pattern.
