 A projected 6.6 million pounds of raw materials are used annually in the United States for the manufacture of personal care products. Worldwide, the largest personal care product category is hair care, followed by skin care, color cosmetics, fragrances, and products for the bath and shower. It’s a multi-billion dollar business. Among the thousands of personal care products available, manufacturers are being forced to differentiate themselves from their competition in new and unique ways. In a market where appearance can mean everything, where consumer perception means the difference between profit and loss, All-Pak can help.
We know how important a strong brand is in the personal care market. For almost 50 years, All-Pak has been working with manufacturers of personal care products. Through packaging, we help them project their brand so that when the consumer is walking down that retail aisle, it stands out. Be it color choice, label options, container shape, or closure, there are many, many ways to accomplish this.
We have completed projects that have required little more that the creative use of a stock bottle/stock closure combination. Sometimes, a simple change in package color does the trick. Sometimes, a new label works. Yet, in other cases, we have helped customers completely re-tool their product packaging – literally. They’ve scrapped all their packaging and started over with their own, customized look. How? One word – molds. No. Not the kind that causes allergies. Customized, product molds. All-Pak has a custom mold development team that will take your vision and start with what most people refer to as a “napkin” sketch, which we can take all the way through to finished product. We’ve completed such projects many times, the results of which can be seen on the shelves today. Between our variety of available stock containers and closures and our ability to design custom components, the possibilities are almost limitless. |

All-Pak is experienced in developing both injection and blow molded components. We are able to take your napkin sketch and develop a package that will reinvigorate your product's shelf appeal.

Not sure what you want? No problem. We can talk you through the selection process. Obviously, budget will always be a concern. All-Pak works with personal care manufacturers that have been in the business for decades, and, we work with start-ups and their relatively smaller budgets as well. Regardless, we learn as much about your preferences as we can, then, we consider the product you’re placing in the package and begin to present options that are most appropriate for you.
APPEARANCE AND FUNCTION, THE PERFECT COMBINATION
 |
|
And, don’t forget, there’s much more to it than just making the package look pretty. It must also function as intended. Perhaps the bottle you’re using experiences slight wall collapse over time, or, maybe what you’re using now leaks, or, maybe you’re completely unfamiliar with the science behind personal care formulas and packaging. You see, different raw materials or ingredients can have different effects on different packaging materials. That’s why, at All-Pak, we offer compatibility testing to make sure that your formula will peacefully coexist with our recommended packaging solution. |
All-Pak also offers other value added services including near-site warehousing, inventory management, and years of experience in the business. Just one example of our experience is our knowledge of the channels of distribution in the personal care market. Do you know what diversion is? Do you prefer to distribute through diverters, or, would you like to avoid them? Through our process, we can provide guidance on how to protect the integrity of your brand when sold through various channels of distribution.
It’s all about our relationship with you. Regardless of your needs, All-Pak has seen it all. If you’re ready to take a look at your packaging, give us a call. We have the knowledge. We have the experience. We love a challenge.
