SnapSlide Unveils Child-Resistant Closure with Single-Hand Operation for Rx Vials
SnapSlide, LLC, a packaging innovations company dedicated to making it easier for consumers to access, use, and store pharmaceutical products, has introduced a line of no-torque, child-resistant caps that is the market’s first adaptive packaging solution. SnapSlide’s ergonomic design features a patented, sliding, two-step opening procedure that allows for single-handed opening and closing while maintaining child resistance.
Engineered specifically to aid millions of consumers with physical disabilities and limitations, the user-friendly cap closure technology utilizes a slide-to-open/close functionality that requires less force and dexterity to operate than the current push-and-turn technology. The cap itself stays firmly affixed to the vials, adding an additional dimension of safety and convenience while allowing for easy, metered dosing. The closure system also provides definitive security feedback, by producing a 57-decibel “snap” upon closing – an auditory cue helping consumers recognize still-open medicine bottles.
