The\u00a0packaging\u00a0innovations company\u2019s child-resistant closure for\u00a0prescription bottles, SnapSlide Rx, won the award.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Designed to improve access to medications for those with physical limitations and dexterity issues, the SnapSlide Rx\u2019s patented design also provides sustainability benefits, using over 25% less plastic compared to conventional Rx packages. Additionally, the solution will ensure a 30% improvement in efficiency in shipping and distribution.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The general public voted for the People\u2019s Choice Award, which featured dozens of nominations from companies all over the world. SnapSlide is the first non-publicly traded company to win the award in the last three years. Additionally, this is the third major award that the SnapSlide Rx has won recently, with it winning AmeriStar awards from the Institute for Packaging Professionals (IOPP).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">With a slide-to-open\/close feature rather than the conventional push-and-turn mechanics, SnapSlide\u2019s technology could be \u201clife-changing\u201d for over 60 million Americans who have some form of dexterity issues, like arthritis, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson\u2019s disease. Around 12 million people are either temporarily or permanently unable to use one of their arms or hands. These include amputees, stroke\/paralysis patients, and those with congenital birth defects, all of whom struggle with conventional pharmaceutical closures when it comes to opening, dosing, and closing, with one arm.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The packaging innovator\u2019s solution is substantially more popular regardless of dexterity issues. In focus groups, almost 90% of consumers preferred SnapSlide to conventional amber vial closures. Additionally, two-thirds said they would be more loyal to brands adopting SnapSlide and could switch to a competing brand with the solution.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201cWe are incredibly honoured to receive the People\u2019s Choice Award for Sustainability Innovation,\u201d said Rocky Batzel, Inventor and CEO of SnapSlide. \u201cThis award not only validates the importance of accessibility in packaging but also underscores our commitment to reducing plastic waste while enhancing the user experience.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><em><strong>interplasinsights<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Iranpolymer\/Baspar\u00a0 SnapSlide LLC\u00a0has been named the People\u2019s Choice Award winner for\u00a0Sustainability Innovation\u00a0by the\u00a0Plastics Industry Association (PIA).\u00a0The Awards aim to highlight those providing innovations in sustainable\u00a0plastics manufacturing\u00a0with the aim of impacting the global plastics industry.
