A Tailored Solution for Luxury Brands

At the LUXE PACK Monaco event, Silgan Dispensing introduced its latest pump, the Melodie Pirouette SNI 13, designed for molded glass bottles with a 13 mm threaded neck. The launch aimed to offer a premium, portable refilling solution for consumers on the move.

What Makes the SNI 13 Stand Out?

The partnership with Groupe Pochet enabled the creation of a complete system: a glass bottle featuring a screw‑type neck and a pump that fits seamlessly onto it. The Melodie Pirouette SNI 13 is engineered to match the threaded finish, ensuring a secure seal and smooth dispensing. Silgan highlighted the pump’s ergonomic design and leak‑proof performance, positioning it as a high‑end option for luxury brands.

How Will This Impact the Market?

Silgan’s strategy focuses on delivering a cohesive experience from bottle to pump. By integrating the pump directly into the bottle’s neck design, the company eliminates the need for separate caps or adapters. This integration promises reduced manufacturing steps and a more reliable user experience. The collaboration with Groupe Pochet, known for its expertise in glass packaging, provides the technical know‑how to achieve the precise threading required for the SNI 13 pump.

The SNI 13 pump features a 13 mm threaded neck, a size chosen for its balance between strength and convenience. The pump’s internal mechanism is optimized for low‑pressure dispensing, which helps preserve product integrity and reduces waste. Additionally, the design includes a quick‑release feature that allows users to refill the bottle without removing the pump, enhancing the product’s appeal for on‑the‑go consumers.

Frequently Asked Questions

By offering a ready‑to‑use system, Silgan positions itself as a one‑stop supplier for luxury beverage brands. The new pump could streamline supply chains and reduce packaging costs. Early adopters may see increased customer satisfaction due to the ease of refilling and the premium feel of the glass bottle.
