  • 1.  Domestic Pumps for Lotions / Creams

    Posted 02-05-2025 07:07 AM

    Hello all! I am looking to develop a BCP solution for our 24mm pumps that is manufactured within the USA. Does anybody have a recommendation for sources to look into? Our application is for viscous lotions / creams, and there is a desire to consider both up-locking and down-locking mechanisms. Happy to discuss further should there be a desire to talk about the project.

    You can start with Aptar or Silgan; be very clear the pumps need to be manufactured in the US. Also, note that some of the parts may be made elsewhere. Ask, they can tell you. Let me know if you need a contact.
