A bespoke closure solution has been developed by Global Closure Systems (GCS) for Nestlé’s Coffee-mate 2GO that has satisfied the lifestyle expectations of ‘on-the-go’ coffee drinkers in North America.
Launched in late 2014, Nestlé’s new Coffee-mate 2GO creamer dispenser incorporates a silicone valve sub-assembly designed and manufactured by Zeller Plastik, GCS’s production plant in Libertyville, Illinois.
Coffee-mate 2GO, the innovative and breakthrough product for the Coffee-mate brand and the creamer category is a conveniently-sized, 90ml portable creamer that does not require refrigeration, allowing consumers to transform their ordinary cup of coffee anywhere and at any time.
Peter Goshorn, Sales and Marketing Director, GCS America said: “The silicone valve has been specifically designed to perfectly match the product formulation.”
The closure’s red glossy finish offers stand-out, on-shelf appeal, while the need for tamper evidence is provided by a full body sleeve.
Nestlé, which introduced Coffee-mate in 1961 as the first “non-dairy creamer” on the market, said GCS has met all the technical requirements and specifications of its beloved brand.
Cyrille Durand, Group Manager, Technical Packaging, Nestlé USA said: “Zeller Plastik’s collaboration on the cap development and execution for Coffee-mate 2GO helped us develop the perfect solution for the loyal Coffee-mate consumer who needs a portable creamer.
“The market for enjoying coffee outside of the home continues to grow and developing Coffee-mate in a practical, ready-to-go offering meets the lifestyle of today’s consumer”.
