Philippe The Original is one of the oldest and best known restaurants in Southern California. To complement their classic "French Dipped Sandwich", Philippe's prepares and bottles their own famous, very hot mustard twice weekly.

Philippe's would not trust this time-honored sandwich sauce to just any package; therefore, they carefully selected the squeezable bottle and Ultra Light Flip-Top closure combination for the best dispensing experience both in-store and at home.

Philippe's Hot Mustard is packaged to solve the age-old problem of ingredient separation. The Ultra Light 38/400 Flip Top closure, manufactured by Stull Technologies, features a liquid trap that keeps the separated liquid inside the bottle before the mustard is dispensed. Additionally, the cap's modern opening mechanism promotes a cleaner orifice area that is positioned to provide improved directional dispensing.

When dispensing a product as spicy hot as Philippe's sandwich sauce, the controlled pour becomes even more important. Combined, these features help to enhance the consumer's experience with the product.

Featured benefits of the Ultra light Flip Top closure

  •     Liquid Trap prevents separated liquid from dispensing before product
  •     Orifice area positioned to provide improved directional dispensing
  •     Lighter weight for better sustainability.

Philippe Mustard recognized as Association of Dressings and Sauces 2014 Package of the Year

Nominations for the award were received from ADS members and then were voted on by visual presentation at the ADS technical meeting in San Diego, California. ADS members voted for the package deemed to have the best presentation.

Congratulations to Philippe The Original, as the Association of Dressings and Sauces 2014 Package of the Year!
