TITLE

Swirl technology: turning an industry on its cans

SPEAKER

Tracy Luckow

Whipnotic

ABSTRACT

Inspired by coffee baristas who were swirling sauces and purees into whipped cream in coffee shops across the country, a unique spray nozzle technology was invented to disrupt the whipped cream category via Whipnotic. Yet, Whipped cream isn’t the only aerosol category that hasn’t seen much innovation in the last 75 years. Whipnotic’s patented nozzle technology adapts perfectly to categories like spray deodorant, shaving cream, sunscreen and hair mousse – just to name a few. The huge benefit of having two discrete compartments allows for endless innovation possibilities to bring more visible function and fun to the consumer.
