Ball Aerosol Packaging Devizes (UK) has collaborated with renowned manufacturers Reabrook Ltd and the Lindal Group to design, produce and fill 25,000 cans of Rainbow hand sanitizer in an effort to help combat the global pandemic.
"At Ball, we are committed to supporting our communities with meaningful and impactful actions throughout the COVID-19 pandemic," says Natalie Cox, senior key account manager at Ball Aerosol Packaging. "The communities where we live and work are an integral part of who we are, and during this time of great need, we want to share our expertise to fight the virus and protect those near and dear to us."
"We are delighted to work in partnership with Reabrook and Lindal to produce a concrete product to stop the virus from spreading in our communities."
The cans are printed using Eyeris® HD printing technology. It communicates how to stay safe in the pandemic and fight the virus.
“A lot of work went into the development of the aerosol itself, including 12 weeks of stability testing, conducted after the successful formula was developed. The result confirms the efficacy of the product and supports the claim that the product is effective against all enveloped viruses,” Ball said.
“The hand sanitizer is packaged in Ball's aluminium aerosol cans, and accommodates Lindal's valve and actuator technology. It is to be filled on one of Reabrook's high-speed filling lines and safety checked with leak detection and pressure testing to ensure the product is safe for consumer use. The products will be divided equally between the three groups, allowing the companies to distribute cans to each of their local communities.”
