Did you know that the lotions, deodorants, cosmetics, shaving gels, facial washes, shaving foams, sunscreens, self-tanning sprays and most other self-care items used by you go through stringent packaging processes before they are available on the racks of your favorite stores? Be it your favorite cooling spray or anti-tan lotion, they are all packaged well by filling companies that provide a wide variety of configurations and sizes for their cans.
For instance, popular filling companies like Signature Filling Company have a large gamut of products to their credit. From providing private label opportunities to contract packaging options of bag-on-valve aerosol, they do it all. They usually provide reliable formulation services along with the best-in-class manufacturing capabilities. Alongside, their low cost as well as high capacity production of aerosol help them achieve their filling targets like no other. Providing optimum customer and technical support, these companies are usually found making their mark in the cosmetic and sun care packaging industry.
Here, we intend to throw light on the much-used and appreciated Bag-on-Valve Aerosol Technology that happens to be a modern packaging system. This technology has been further developed to bring about improvements in the ways in which medical, cosmetic and pharmaceutical products are filled and packed for sale. This technology is both user friendly and convenient. Boasting of 99% product emptying, this filling technology helps in spraying the product within evenly, and at all angles.
- The Valve
Bag-on-Valve (BOV) products are now available with male and female valves alike.
- The Bag
The laminated aluminum bag is FDA approved and contains up to 3 or 4 layers as per the specific requirements of the product that is being filled. Overall, BOV systems can be procured in a wide range of sizes, thereby making the technology all the more versatile for its users.
- The Product
Bag-on-Valve systems and their related product materials are capable of being used for filling liquids and viscous products such as creams, gels and ointments alike. Along with use in various other applications, BOV systems are fit for sterile products and oxygen-sensitive products as well.
- The Propellant
BOVs are best used with compressed nitrogen or air. This because of the gap present between the product and the propellant.
- The Actuator
Bag-on-Valves can be procured in a wide range of actuators as per product demands.
- The Can
The regular aerosol cans as well as the ones made with aluminum or tin plates are used in BOV systems.
In most cases, reputed filling companies go through well- conceived procedures to complete the projects of their clients. They supply all appropriate technology and materials for fulfilling their filling needs, be it through valves, cans, actuators or any other suitable components that are specific to their needs. The good thing about the materials used for filling purposes is that they are mostly 100% recyclable and offer zero harmful propellants that are eventually released into the atmosphere. In other words, they strive to use the best products that are eco-friendly, easy to use, and simple to discard after usage.
