Thanks to extensive customer surveys and the implementation of feedback directly from installers and pipe fitters, Loctite 55 has reached a new level of user-friendliness and practicality. Emphasis was also placed on a robust design which is used under construction site conditions and also stored in the toolbox between applications. The lid is integrated into the packaging in such a way that it cannot be lost and the closing of the lid pinches and protects the cord ensuring that the product cannot return into the pack between uses.
The safe handling of the product has been enhanced by ergonomic modifications for use and an extended application hole for deployment the sealing cord to pipework. The updated design allows for easy, one-handed use, which simplifies workflow for professionals. Furthermore, the use of transparent material for the upper part means that the user can see how much sealing cord remains in the packaging without opening it.
Sustainability of the package is achieved through the use of polypropylene for entire pack with 70% of the weight being recycled post consumer plastic, thus being compliant with proposed PPWR guidelines to 2040. This is a valuable contribution to establishing a circular economy.
