Vertical bags developed by Ecolab

Ecolab's packaging must meet stringent requirements from customers and the United Nations. The company's Oasis ProTM 2 litre self-supporting bag concentrate cleaner also meets the criteria of another important agency, the American Packaging Professional Association. The IoPP jury awarded Ecolab's vertical bags with the 2003 AmeriStar Award.

“It is difficult to find a packaging material that will accommodate all of these high-concentration chemicals and meet the requirements of the United Nations Regulations for Transport of Dangerous Goods,” explains Tom Berg, ecolab project engineer. "We have solved this problem with a very special packaging."

Unlike conventional stand-up pouches, Oasis ProTM custom pouches are made of 0.15mm thick material, 25.4cm x 22.8cm in size and placed on a 12.7cm wide support base for good stability.

According to Ecolab, the bags after use are easy to collect and can be burned, and many customers want this. Because for them, waste storage is a serious problem.

This bag integrates an IPN Clean ClicTM dispensing attachment to quickly connect Ecolab's delivery system. This technology is unique to Ecolab in its market. Ecolab likes this one-piece injection accessory, which helps customers avoid direct contact with the cleaner. The attachment has a 4 mm filling nozzle. Jane Chase, Ecolab's packaging director, said that the supplier of the bags heat-sealed the accessories to the corners of the bags, a challenging technical development project.

"With this accessory, users will not be exposed to the product," Chase said. She pointed out that the attachment is a one-way check valve, and when the filling or dispensing head is retracted, the attachment is automatically sealed again, so that the bag and the attachment maintain a good seal when not in use.

The bag is affixed with a two-color pressure-sensitive label. The tag structure must be able to withstand strong chemicals from surfactants to corrosive and acidic formulations. The product label uses color as the code to match the corresponding delivery location on the Oasis Pro distribution system. For example, the pink label on marble safety cleaners indicates to the customer that the pink label should be delivered, thus reducing the possibility of user error.

The bag is filled with Ecolab's new system single head semi-automatic gear pump dispenser. The filling head is filled with accessories. When the filler head is removed, the bag attachment is resealed. This filling process eliminates the air in the bag and reduces the time required for the customer to prepare the dispenser in advance.

Each cubic box is filled with 2 bags of 2 litre bags filled with detergent product. The Class B corrugated carton has a size of 21cmx16.5cm x 19cm. The face text is printed in two colors. There are Class C corrugated partitioned cushions in the box to separate and protect 2 bags during transport and storage.

During storage and transportation, each box is loaded with 2 bags and each pallet is shipped with 198 boxes. The product volume of each pallet increased by 42%, and the pallet volume efficiency also increased nominally from 82% to 87%.
