Flexibility in the service of market.

Often in the choice of a product affect the color and its fragrance.
Ronchi has created a new series of fillers that, thanks to a patented device, allows you to mix in line more fragrances/additives to the base product, during the same cycle.
This system provides power to all stations simultaneously filling the same basic product to which are added to different colors and fragrances at each filling station, according to specific customer requirements. Each bottle can then be customized even during capping.
The bottles, already mixed, ready to be launched directly to packers and retailers.

Summer: it’s time for delicate an organic deodorants.

The new generation of deodorants are usually quite mild, not interfering with transpiration and do not cause irritation and redness.

The cosmetic companies have launched deodorants certified organic, free not only of propellants, alcohol and other potentially irritating ingredients, but also made with botanical extracts such as aloe, from organic farming.

Read more about the chain of processing and packaging of deodorant you can do to the filling lines of RONCHI that,  fit nicely into any type of packaging, included roll-on deodorantas.

Bleach in gold

Perfumed, utilized as a disinfectant and cleaning agent for surfaces, or as a whitener for laundry, bleach is certainly among the most versatile products utilized in our homes.

This substance is traditionally produced using an energy-intensive process.

The economics of the current production method requires H2O2 to be produced in large quantities and in solutions with concentrations much higher, and less stable, than those used in most practical applications.

Now, a group of chemists and materials scientists from the UK and the US  – in an article published on February 20th on  “Science” magazine (www.sciencemag.org) – maintain that  a carefully tailored alloy of palladium and gold nanoparticles catalyzes the direct production of H2O2 while “switching off” the decomposition of the compound. The breakthrough, which culminates more than five years of research on the topic, promises to enable the on-site production of H2O2 in smaller quantities and more desirable concentrations.
 
Filling process for such products like bleach has already been argued on a previous post: EXACTA/RC 28/8/8, the new generation filler 

Aftermarket support: pharmaceutical industry deems this is an essential requisite in the choice of the supplier

This is the result of a survey carried out by PMMI Pharmaceutical/Nutraceutical Packaging Machinery (USA), through telephone interviews to  71 representatives of the U.S. pharmaceutical industry, selected among people operating for  pharmaceutical/nutraceutical companies, medical device manufacturers, contract, manufacturers/packagers, OEM companies and industry experts.

Well,  the participants to this survey believe that the most important choice criteria, after the machine cost, is the Aftermarket Support ensured by the supplier, followed by  Company reputation e Service location & parts availability.

First of all it is important to project and realize  simple- to-use machines: as a matter of fact, not always skilled machine operators are available at the plant’– clarifies Gianmario Ronchi, owner of Ronchi Mario spa, company that in the filling of pharmaceutical specialties has matured significant experiences within a U.S. context.

‘In lack of skilled machine operators, more and more frequently the end-user tends to apply to the supplier for resolving whichever sort of  problem. Within those contexts whereas we have  important business shares, we have established our own  branches: in the United States,  England,  Asia, Mexico and Australia. In order to ensure the best aftermarket support and commercial assistance, and with the aim of making the interaction with the customer easier, our personnel is always local.  The branch also ensures the supply of spare parts available from the local warehouse. In this way, aftermarket support is always guaranteed,  in good time opportunely and quickly.

Detergent is good, concentrated is better!

Since some time concentrated detergents are quite widespread in Europe and in USA.

The lighter bottle, reduced in its dimensions,  results to be easier to use by the consumer.

Not only:  compact detergent  operates in a major environmental sustainability by reducing packaging wastes.

Since  2006,  Packaging Scorecard in  Wal-Mart has started a promotional campaign in favour of concentrated detergents, convincing the market leaders to developing the concentrated versions of the most renowned products.

Unilever  have launched the  “Small & Mighty” bottle, the formulation of which requires  64%  water less than the traditional version and, consequently, a smaller bottle. The product has quickly conquered the marketplace and the bottle has then been adopted for other brands.

On the wave of this success Procter & Gamble too  have  more recently proposed the most famous  Tide, the detergent launched in  1946,  now in concentrated version. It is available for sale since 2008 in USA and Canada.

Needless to say, the industry of the machinery for the filling and conditioning of concentrated detergents has introduced new technologies aimed at supporting the tendencies of the market.  Just think about the extreme filling accuracy guaranteed by the flow-meter technology.
