  • Home and Garden Division – Introducing Ergosol® Max—a sleek new spin on our popular Ergosol aerosol sprayer. Featuring an elongated shroud that integrates with the can and full-color customization, Ergosol Max gives your brand a premium look at a price point that’s more affordable than other trigger-actuated sprayers.

  • Beauty and Personal Care Division – Aria® Luxe enhances consumers’ perception of luxury through specific sensory cues—from a comfortable landing area for the finger to a secure locking mechanism to the metallic appearance consumers prefer.
  • Fragrance – Melodie Pirouette, our first threaded ferrule pump for luxury fragrance inspired by consumer research aimed at gauging awareness, interest and use of refillable, recyclable and sustainable fragrance packaging.
