For the 10th anniversary of FlowerByKenzo, Kenzo wanted its emblematic fragrance to be involved in sustainable development. The brand chose to entrust its desire to the skillful know-how of Aptar Beauty + Home, fully confident in its expertise.
To reply to Kenzo’s expectations, Aptar Beauty + Home replaced the classic VP4 crimp pumps with VP4 screw pumps, so that FlowerByKenzo is now available as a refillable spray. An exclusive Aptar Beauty + Home creation, these new pumps are of the same diameter as the previous ones. Only a few modifications were required so the existing bottles and caps could be kept.
For the 50- and 100-ml sizes the same version of the VP4 screw pump was used on a CV 15-mm neck with a silver anodized aluminum collar customized for Kenzo, while for the 30-ml bottles a VP4 screw pump was used on a CV 13 neck. Aptar Beauty + Home developed and produced an innovative protocol beforehand that enabled testing the VP4 on a CV 15-mm neck with a “refillable” function and validating its perfect suitability. Optimum quality—leak-proofness, durability, etc.—was thus guaranteed for its use. For more, visit www.aptar.com.
