With the patented EasyDose®, DaklaPack has introduced an innovative packaging solution that fundamentally improves the way products are dispensed from flexible packaging. Thanks to its broad applicability across sectors such as cosmetics, food, automotive and chemicals, EasyDose® creates new opportunities for brands looking to differentiate their packaging.
During the validation phase, it became clear that both PE and PP offered insufficient resilience for rapid closure, resulting in leakage and less accurate dosing. After researching alternative materials, the design was optimised using simulations, reducing stress levels and testing various leaf spring configurations through prototypes and practical tests.
This resulted in a design, within the scope of the patent, that delivered the fastest closure and best performance. The transition from 3D-printed prototype to trial mould proved successful and validated the design. Although PE was preferred because of its mono-material compatibility with the stand-up pouch, PP was ultimately selected as it provided the required functionality.

"In this project, the objective was clear, and we deliberately wanted to go beyond a static prototype. By choosing to develop a functional demonstrator, we embraced the technical complexity. That extra effort directly translates into the persuasive power of the model and reflects the quality and engineering of a true end product.”
