Kick went on to explain that the founders of BuzzBallz have a list of qualities that they want in their dream drinks and in the packaging. “We want the product to be tasty, strong enough, and made with real fruit juice and the package to be colorful, portable, unbreakable and recyclable,” Kick added.
The BuzzBallz Shooterz package design includes a plastic container, closure and shot glass, perfect for pools, barbecues and other outdoor and indoor events. CSI’s DS-Lok 28mm closure, capping equipment and technical support provided the ideal integrated sealing solution. The DS-Lok closure is specifically designed for distilled spirits, delivering outstanding performance, tamper evidence and aesthetics. The cap is engineered to perform within a full range of bottle tolerances and provides consistent, high speed application, ensuring that the integrity of the product is protected and maximum operational efficiency is achieved. “CSI’s technical knowledge and application problem-solving were important,” said Kick. “We not only wanted a quality closure for our package, but also needed an experienced partner to help achieve a trouble-free rollout.”
