Packaging specialist RPC Bramlage (Lohne / Germany; www.rpc-bramlage.de) has designed and developed a special applicator for its “Magic Star” dispensers for a range of creams and lotions. A new bi-injection moulded actuator is compatible with the company’s standard pump head and can be used across its range of containers. The actuator is made of PP and TPE to create a soft, flexible, rubbery surface that assists in the application and penetration of a variety of dermal products into the skin.

The nubbed surface can also help to deliver a massaging action that offers additional benefits for products designed to reduce pain or inflammation or combat cellulite. The “Magic Star” range provides a combination of functionality and style in the reliable and accurate dispensing of creams, gels and lotions for a variety of applications, the company said. Its airless system can handle products of many different viscosities, making it suitable for the personal care, cosmetic and pharmaceutical markets.
