This new packaging combines the durability of rigid containers with the efficiency of flexible packaging, offering consumers a convenient and more sustainable alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe new Ortho Home Defense Max packaging represents a major step forward in sustainability and consumer convenience,\u201d said Keith Miller, senior packaging engineer at ScottsMiracle-Gro. \u201cBy introducing a spouted pouch, we\u2019ve significantly reduced our plastic packaging footprint while ensuring that our customers continue to receive the high-performance pest control solutions they trust.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This design leverages ProAmpac\u2019s chemical- and UV-resistant printing and laminating technology, ensuring durability and product integrity while advancing sustainability. Developed in close collaboration with ScottsMiracle-Gro, the spouted pouch allows consumers to conveniently refill their current dispensing system rather than purchase a new one. This supports consumer ease-of-use and dramatically reduces the plastic required per unit. By transitioning from a rigid container to a flexible pouch, the new packaging uses 90% less plastic, significantly lightens the overall weight, and is better optimized for e-commerce distribution. The pouch delivers the same volume of pest control solution with far less environmental impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOur goal was to create a packaging solution that meets sustainability targets without compromising performance,\u201d said Isha Labhasetwar, product development manager at ProAmpac. \u201cBy transitioning from a rigid container to a flexible pouch, this innovative design not only reduces plastic waste but also improves ease of use for consumers and aligns perfectly with e-commerce logistics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recognized for its innovative design and sustainability, the Ortho Home Defense Max spouted pouch sets a new standard for environmentally responsible packaging in the lawn and garden sector.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ProAmpac, a global leader in flexible packaging and material science, has partnered with ScottsMiracle-Gro to introduce a groundbreaking spouted pouch for Ortho Home Defense Max.
