Aptar CSP Technologies, part of AptarGroup, will preview its first-ever active bottle featuring post-consumer recycled (PCR) content at SupplySide West, Stand 6046, 2-3 November in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The new PCR active bottles are now part of Aptar CSP Technologies’ Activ-Vial solutions portfolio. As with the rest of the active packaging portfolio, the company’s proprietary 3-Phase Activ-Polymer platform technology is fully integrated into the bottle to create a microclimate to protect against moisture and other environmental conditions. Unlike traditional packaging options, the technology co-molds highly-engineered active particles into the bottle, scavenging moisture before it reaches the contents inside, the company says.

Also at the SupplySide West show, Billy Abrams, senior vice president of business development for Aptar CSP Technologies, will give a presentation titled ‘Optimizing probiotic formulations: use of active packaging to minimize overages, reduce costs, and improve margins’. The presentation will be delivered on 2 November at 2:40 p.m. PST in the IPA Probiotics Resource Center Theater.
