Dropps Packaging Goes Omnichannel, Returns to Retail
Laundry and dish pod trailblazer Dropps doesn't need to get up on a soap box about sustainable packaging. Its new omnichannel carton range, rolled out in June 2024, sends that message on its own, both via e-comm channels and in the retail detergent aisle.
January 8, 2025
The latest dishwasher pod formulation from Dropps, UltraWash Plus uses its paperboard packaging to communicate product efficacy by depicting a Pyrex-style glass baking dish, often considered to be the toughest to clean with baked-on food. The company says Ultrawash Plus is the first-to-market USDA-certified bio-based multi-chamber dishwasher detergent.

Top Articles of 2024, #14: Refresco's Mono-material, Aseptic HDPE/rHDPE Carton
The #14 most clicked article of 2024: While brands swap plastic for paper, reZorce flips the script with circular, mono-material HDPE/rHDPE for paper. Finishing validation, CM/CP Refresco will be first to market.
December 23, 2024
END USER REFRESCO: 'If you look at the groups of customers that we have, about two thirds are the large retailers, and about one third are A brands, what we clearly see is that the A brand owners are pushing for circularity themselves. They want us to come up with a circular solution, and they are very demanding of us--rightfully so, because it's part of their brand and positioning. For the retailers, we play more of a product developer role, and we are supposed to come up with circular solutions. They compare us with other bottlers, and other beverage solutions providers and see who has the best option. So we have to offer them business solutions, we have to offer them choices, and they want them to be within a competitive price and high quality. We need to come up with a solution that brings that all, and I believe that with this reZorce pack, we have a new option that they will certainly appreciate.' -- Coert Michielsen, CPO, Refresco
