La Roche-Posay relies on the expertise of Medicos for the packaging of Hyalu B5 Anti-Wrinkle Eye Serum, a unique combination of dropper and roll-on, to meet the demands of targeted, precise application.
This solution is based on a PP roll-on pipette with stainless steel ball, complemented by a nitrile nipple, PP cap and PP carrying cap. The 15ml bottle is made of tinted molded glass.
The originality of the device lies in the functional combination of the dropper's precise dosage gesture and the roll-on's targeted application, adapted to the eye contour area.
On the industrial front, Medicos has taken up the challenge of automatic assembly of the stainless steel ball and dropper system, guaranteeing reliability, repeatability and production performance. With sustainability in mind, the PP, stainless steel and glass components are recyclable. The teat, currently made of nitrile, will soon be converted to a TPE that can be recycled in the PP process, while retaining the same functional and sensory properties.
The specific development of this product brings together two of Medicos' long-standing areas of expertise: dropper and roll-on solutions, both from well-known ready-to-use ranges.
The roll-on range is based on a PE ball holder, a glass or stainless steel ball, a PP or RPP cap, and a drawn glass bottle. Two standard ball diameters are available - D7.5 mm and D10 mm - corresponding to capacities of 5 to 10 ml and 10 to 20 ml respectively. Flow reducers can be integrated according to application requirements.
The dropper range includes a pipette in drawn glass or a specific pipette in PP, fitted with a nitrile, butyl or TPE nipple, and a smooth or ribbed cap in PP or RPP. Different pipette geometries and orifice diameters enable precise adaptation to cosmetic and dermocosmetic uses. These droppers can be combined in full service with drawn glass, molded glass or plastic bottles of varying capacities.
Tamper-evident rings for certain ferrules and PP pipette protectors complete the range. The diversity of diameters, lengths and capacities allows a wide range of combinations, enriched by numerous finishing options. Caps and bead holders can be colored in the mass; finishes such as lacquering, metallizing or the addition of aluminum caps are also available, as are decorative options such as hot stamping or engraving. The bottle can also be customized by silk-screen printing, hot stamping and/or lacquering.
