Detergent package wins AmeriStar award

Co-packing played a key role in developing a package whose shape and functionality bring a new look to the laundry detergent aisle. Display Pack (www.displaypack.com) created the design and Apco Packaging (www.apcopackaging.com) filled the package for Orange Glo International’s Oxi Clean Toss-N-Go “detergent ball.” The package won a 2006 AmeriStar award, which was presented at the Packaging Summit in May 2007.
