Spring cleaning has gotten a whole lot easier. Milliken Chemical, Spartanburg, SC, manufacturer of Capture® Carpet Cleaner, brings improved consumer satisfaction to carpet and rug cleaning using the Flapper® Dispensing Closure from Weatherchem Corp.

“The Flapper provides easy, trouble-free convenience of controlled dispensing to our product," explains Scott McDowell, product line manager for Milliken & Company. "Through consumer research, our brand and packaging team found that the Flapper cap provided us the highest consumer satisfaction levels when dispensing the product. Another benefit to consumers, and Milliken's operations, is the elimination of a separator sifter replaced so effectively by this dispensing cap."
