It’s extrusion blow-molded of high-density polyethylene by Consolidated Container (Atlanta, GA). High-impact graphics are provided by a reverse-printed stretch-sleeve film label from MRI (Newtown, PA). Sleeving is done by Consolidated using three customized 10-head rotary sleeve applicators from PDC-Europe (Austin, TX). Containers are shipped to P&G’s plant in Jackson, TN, where they are filled and heat-sealed with a triangular foil lidstock. A thermoformed overcap from Ivex (Wheaton, IL) provides recloseability.
P&G likes the recycleable triangular canister because it protects against breakage.
Available in a 5.6-oz single can, an 11.2-oz twin-pack, and a 28-oz five-can pack, P&G anticipates pricing of $1.69, $2.99, and $5.99, respectively. P&G expects most grocery stores, mass merchandisers, and convenience stores nationwide to carry Torengos, which began shipping in December, by the end of this month. (PR, RL)
