Taiwan Premier Award

''Consumers either have problems because the screw top lid has been put on too tight, the child proof locking system has locked the parent out or it is simply too complicated to open. This has led to many consumers taking a knife or scissors to the container which then incurs in a high percentage of injuries”.

Simply squeeze to open provides consumers with an alternative packaging solution. The technology comprises of a lid that is a press snap fit onto the base of the container. All the consumer needs to do is simply squeeze the side of the lid and the lid will pop off and what makes it even more special is that only one hand is needed!
