 orus Packaging Plus has a presence both at the stand of the MPMA (Metal Packaging Manufacturing Association) and the Packaging Solutions Advice Group. At the MPMA stand (nr 8388) Corus showcases the latest developments in Protact, its polymer-coated steel that is safe, versatile and attractive. At the stand of the Packaging Solutions Advice Group (nr 8180) will be demonstrated in a very entertaining but also informative way, how you use packaging steel differently and creatively. Protact 2-piece aerosol can The Protact two-piece aerosol can made by DS Containers, is the first consumer package of its kind worldwide. The use of Protact gives superior quality through its well known protection against corrosion, state-of-the-art decoration possibilities, and excellent food safety performance through FDA- and EU compliance. The use of Protact makes it possible to pack a wide range of products, from aerosol products to liquids. The Buzz concept packaging The Buzz is a new packaging option for spray products. It is the first packaging to combine the best of currently available spray packaging solutions. The Buzz concept builds on the convenience and consumer safety of steel aerosols and answers market needs of differentiation. As the outer container is not pressurised, all kinds of materials, shapes and textures can be used, which give the Buzz great design potential. Protact and major brands Visitors will be able to see how major brand owners are already enjoying success by using our polymer-coated steels, like Protact, for packaging solutions. Major brands have recognised the unique benefits of this new material. Some examples showcased at the stand: - Akzo Nobel Sikkens paintcan with Protact ring and bottom. Offering both protection against corrosion and excellent lid retention.

- William Saurin salad bowl with Ferrolite ring and peelable end. Enabling consumers to enjoy a tasty meal with a new level of ease.
