Benefits of technology

The patent is about a packaging system for a consumer product, specifically a colored product, that uses a transparent container with a special coating to reduce the transmission of light that can affect the color of the product. The coating can be applied to the container using a baked-on powder or other chemical, and the product can be a cosmetic like nail polish or gel, which are sensitive to light and can be cured by UV light. The benefits of this packaging system include reducing the risk of light-induced color fading or infection for the consumer, and improving the overall quality of the product.

Problems solved by technology

The products may bleach, polymerize, oxidize, or otherwise be deleteriously affected by significant exposure to such wavelengths.

example

[0063]There are recognized difficulties in storing and displaying UV-sensitive product in a manner that both protects them from substantial UV exposure and / or the effects thereof, and so that a consumer can see the attributes of the product, for example, an appealing color. Further, it was believed that the UV-curable products could not be stored and / or displayed in a package that allowed any UV light to pass through to the contents. In accordance with the disclosure, surprisingly, the inventor has discovered that if a transparent container, such as a glass bottle, is coated with a coating that restricts light transmission therethrough, a small transparent viewing window can be left through which the product color can be observed. The window is preferably less than about 25% of the surface area of the bottle.

[0064]Glass bottles are provided and, in preparation for a powder coating step, each is cleaned and inspected for blemishes. A small area comprising less than about 20% of the s...
