The household cleaning and chemical industry is a competitive market consisting of a variety of home cleaning chemical products which includes all purpose cleaners, degreasers, surface disinfectants, rust removers, floor care, carpet & upholstery cleaning, mold & mildew removers and more. Like any other consumer-based product, the brands must compete for the consumer’s attention on the store shelf which contributes to the variety of packaging used in this industry. In addition to product design for marketability, function is also vital for making sure product can safely be transported and efficiently dispensed for end users.

Packaging can range from 1 oz for small concentrated solutions to 5 gallons for bulk product needs.

Other sustainable materials include aluminum and post consumer resin such as recycled PET and recycled HDPE. Caps and dispensing closure options are also a vital component for packaging household cleaning products. Stock continuous thread caps are commonly used as a standard closures, but a variety of dispensing closures can be used to provide the precise output of product for end users depending on the product’s unique properties.
