Bag-on-valve package is a new canning technology, which is widely used in medicine, chemical industry and other fields. The bag on valve package has another bag valve (similar to the thermos we use everyday, with a shell and an inner tank, and the shell and the inner tank are separated). The bag valve is completely isolated from the tank, and the two are filled with compressed air (purification) and nitrogen as propellant.
When in use, open the valve, the compressed gas in the tank compresses the bag to push the raw materials out of the tank, and the compressed gas remains in the tank. Bag on valve package has been widely used in medicine, health, fire protection, daily chemical and other industries as it’s safer and more convenient in use. These products include cosmetics, personal care products, air fresheners, pesticides, disinfectants, household fire extinguishing agents, computer cleaning agents and so on.
Compared with ordinary aerosol filling, bag on valve aerosol filling has more complex process and higher equipment setup cost. Therefore, bag on valve aerosol filling contract manufacturers appear, that is, bag on valve aerosol filling products are processed on behalf of others.
Its advantage is that it eliminates the cost of purchasing bag on valve aerosol filling equipment. However, due to the third-party prodution, after the BOV aerosol products get a stable market, you need to pay the corresponding filling cost for the production continuously, which will a big amount of money in long run.
Specifically, whether an enterprise with BOV aerosol production needs to purchase BOV aerosol filling machine by itself or cooperate with bag on valve aerosol filling contract manufacturers depends on the current stage and production scale requirements of the enterprise.
