NEW BEVERAGE HELPS TODDLERS DEVELOP HEALTHY EATING HABITS

TricorBraun provides new sippy-top cap to avoid spills.

FIrst Juice - Apple & Banana PairNationally, concerns about child obesity have prompted parents to reconsider their children’s diets, and TricorBraun has provided the packaging for a new alternative drink for youngsters, age 6 to 30 months, that is formulated to foster healthy food and drink preferences when eating habits are formed.

 

First Juice®-Brand juice beverage is made from organic fruit and vegetable juice, blended with purified water, fortified with calcium and vitamins A, C and D and contains 50 percent less sugar than the leading 100 percent fruit juices. Each eight-ounce serving of First Juice® contains only 12 grams of natural sugars from organic fruits and vegetables compared to 27 grams of sugar in an eight-ounce serving of 100 percent apple juice.

 

TricorBraun provided the company with a sippy-top cap closure that helps reduce the spills that typically follow a toddler. The sippy-top cap is the same durable, bi-injected crosscut silicone valve-closure frequently used for the finest sippy cups.

 

TricorBraun provided hot-filled, eight-ounce bottles with the sippy-top cap closure and 32-ounce bottles with a standard screw-top closure.

 

TricorBraun is one of the world’s leading suppliers of packaging, and it has 32 offices in the United States, Canada and Asia.
