With New Seal Technology Consumers Can Get A Whiff Of A Product Without Tampering

A unit of Wayne, Pa.-based Tekni-Plex, Inc. was granted a patent for its Sniff Seal technology, the first container liner to enable scent permeation through an induction seal closure liner that doesn’t affect the seal or compromise the contents. The company says Sniff Seal technology allows the consumer to experience a scent in the retail aisle without compromising the seal or the product contents.  A wide variety of product categories, including food, beverage, personal care, cosmetics can benefit from the technology. Often consumers peel back seals or remove fitments to experience the scent before buying​. The product is then no longer saleable, leading to retailer loss. The Sniff Seal liner eliminates this problem because it provides an olfactory experience without removing the seal. Tamper evidence remains in place and the product integrity is maintained.[Image Credit: © Tekni-Plex]
