The Demand for Airless Packaging is Growing

airless packaging

The demand for airless packaging has grown in popularity because it prevents oxidation, extends shelf life, reduces the need for preservatives, provides precise dosage, and prevents cross-contamination. Another advantage of airless packaging is that it can come in many forms such as jars, bottles, tubes, syringes, etc. This means that design options are endless for companies that are seeking to stand out from the competition.

How Does It Work?

Airless packaging includes an airless pump dispensing system that restricts the flow of oxygen to the substance inside the packaging.

The airless bottle doesn’t have a dip tube. Instead, it has a diaphragm that rises to evacuate the product. When the user presses the pump, it creates a vacuum effect that draws the product upwards and out of the pump. This feature avoids wastage because it allows the consumer to use the product up to the last drop.

Oxidation

Manufacturers are constantly looking to create packing with tight seals that prevent oxidation of their products, especially ones with sensitive formulas. Once oxygen reaches the packaged contents it can cause them to change color, accelerate decay, and affect the chemical properties of the ingredients. Therefore, because airless packaging prevents oxidation the quality of the product is preserved much longer and increases product shelf life by up to 15% more.

Cross-Contamination

As mentioned previously, airless containers have a pump that secretes the contents inside. This means that fingers, filled with germs and bacteria, will not be able to contaminate the product. The Packaging Company also took precautionary measures and moved the metal spring from inside the flow channel to outside the flow channel. This way it eliminates the product from touching the metal.

Precise Dosage

Airless pumps allow accurate dosage of the product each time it is used. This even goes for formulas that have a higher viscosity. In addition to all these positive benefits, airless packaging provides a high-end look and quality feel.
