 The company, a leading OEM lubricant formulator, believes this to be the first stand-up oil pouch in the U.S. power sports industry. Glenroy Inc., produces the package, which uses a two-layer extrusion lamination of 48-ga polyester and a five-layer coextrusion. Glenroy also reverse-prints the polyester in five colors on a flexo press.

The package is designed for easy pouring, convenient storage, waste reduction, and superior shelf impact. The pouch format provides is increased surface area for maximum shelf impact.
