Cat litter bag stands up and stands out on-shelf

Forty-two pounds of scoopable cat litter are now more visually inviting on shelf, easier to carry, and more sustainable, with The Clorox Pet Product Co.’s switch from a polypropylene pail to the FlexZiBox® flexible stand-up, handled bag from Nordenia.

Created for the Fresh Step brand, the new package was awarded Gold in both the Package Excellence and the Environmental & Sustainability Achievement categories.

The side-gusseted, resealable bag—said to be the first to support this product weight with these features, according to Nordenia—stands upright on the store shelf and offers a large billboard space for improved shelf impact. The vertical positioning is key, notes Nordenia, as competitive products are typically packed in layflat, bottom-gusseted bags or in rigid pails with minimal space for front-panel graphics. The proprietary multilayer structure is also said to reduce material weight by 77% versus the former PP pail and lid, resulting in savings in both shipping and disposal.
