END OF YEAR REVIEW
CPC introduces economic dispensing
system The new DrumQuik®
PRO
chemical dispensing system released by Colder Products Company last year provides safe, easy and economic extraction of chemicals from drums, jerry cans and other bulk transfer containers while helping to reduce costly spills, contain hazardous fumes and enhance workplace safety. The easy-to-use, closed-systemdesign, which the company showcased at last year’s interpack show, combines into one integrated unit a recyclable bung closure and a dip-tube with a reusable quick disconnect coupler, ensuring that both sides are sealed frompoint-of-origin to point-of-use. “The best way tominimise exposure when dispensing chemicals frombulk containers is with a closed systemthat eliminates the removal of the inserted dip-tube fromthe drum,” said Thomas Braun, responsible for chemical and packaging products at Colder Products Company. “With DrumQuik PRO, users easily dispense chemicals by removing a shipping plug and then locking the coupler in place. This eliminates the need to install, remove or clean a dip-tube,minimising the potential for fluid or vapour contact while allowing fast changeovers.” Formore information visit
