A. DUTCH BOY BRUSHES UP ITS PAINTS READING DUTCH BOY BRUSHES UP ITS PAINTS Dach Boy Refresh SCH Aas By Elimo oder Sherwin-Williams' Dutch Boy Group put a revolutionary spin on paintcans with its innovative square-shaped Twist & Pour" paint-delivery container for the Dirt Fighter interior latex paint line. The four-plece square container could be the first major change in how house paint is packaged in decades. Lightweight but sturdy. the Twist & Pour "bucket" is packed with so many conveniences, it's next to impossible to mess up a painting project Winning Best of Show In an AmeriStar packaging competition sponsored by the Institute of Packaging Professionals, the exclu- sive, all-plastic paint container stands almost 7% In tall and holds 126 oz, a bit less than 1 gal. Rust-resistant and moisture-resistant, the plastic bucket gives users a new way to mix, brush, and store paint. A hollow handle on one side makes it comfortable to pour and (carry). A convenient, snap-in pour spout neatly pours paint into a tray with no dripping but can be removed if desired, to allow a wide brush to be dipped into the 54-in.-dia. mouth. Capping the container is a large, twist-off lid that requires no tools to open or close. Molded with two lugs for a snug-finger-tight closing, the threaded cap provides a tight seal to extend the shelf life of unused paint While the lid requires no tools to access, the snap-off carry bail is assembled on the container in a "locked-down position" and can be pulled up after purchase for toting or hanging on a ladder. Large, nearly 442-inch-tall label panels allow glossy front and back labels printed and UV-coated to wrap around the can's rounded corners, for an impressive display Jim MacDonald, co-designer of the Twist & Pour and a packag- Ing engineer at Cleveland-based Sherwin-Williams, tells Packag. ing Digest that the space-efficient, square shape is easier to ship and for retailers to stack in stores. It can also be nested, courtesy Courtesy of Dutch Boy of a recess in the bottom that mates with the lid's top ring. "The new design allows for one additional shelf facing on an eight-foot rack or shelf area." The labels are applied automatically, quite a feat, considering their complexity, size, and the hollow handle they likely encounter during application. MacDonald admits, "Label application was a challenge. We had to modify the bottle several times to accom- modate the labeling machinery available." Source: "Dutch Boy Brushes Up Its Paints."
