# Liquid Mint Dispensers Momints' Mint Tube Packaging Securely Transports Gel-Filled Liquid Capsules By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2016-01-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mint-tube References: [packworld](http://www.packworld.com/package-type/bagspouches/liquid-mints-become-jewels-tube) Momints took inspiration from the [cosmetic industry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oval-collection) when developing its new mint tube packaging system. Just as beauty product packaging is often designed to highlight a unique color or texture, Momints realized there was opportunity to better showcase the jewel-like form of its [liquid gel mint capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breathrox-breath-mints). One new solution was for Momints to create a "super tube" vial that contains a handful of the liquid mints. Additionally, Momints also carries thin [pocket-sized foil pouches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swishables) that contain just eight gel capsules in a protective tube. Before these packaging systems were adopted by Momints, the "bold liquid mints" were packaged only in glass vials that featured an attached flag containing product information. To make the tubes more consumer-friendly, Momints now uses transparent plastic tubes topped with polypropylene caps. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.0/10 - Popularity: 80% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Colorful Package Design:** Opportunity for innovative packaging designs that highlight the unique features of the product. - **Convenient Pocket-sized Packaging:** Potential to create compact packaging solutions for on-the-go consumers. - **Sustainable Packaging Materials:** Demand for environmentally-friendly packaging materials that can replace glass vials. ### Who This Affects Most - **Cosmetics:** Opportunity for cosmetic companies to incorporate unique packaging designs that enhance product appeal. - **Food and Beverage:** Potential for food and beverage companies to develop compact packaging solutions for portable consumption. - **Packaging Manufacturing:** Rise in demand for sustainable packaging materials creates an opportunity for manufacturers to produce eco-friendly alternatives. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pocket-Sized Skincare Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/color-capsule.md) - [Paper Chewing Gum Tubes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chewing-gum-tube.md) - [Paper-Made Gum Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mentos-pure-fresh-gum-packaging.md) - [Miniature Makeup Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/makeup-minis.md) - [Sustainable Reusable Toothpaste Containers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mimo.md) - [Squeezable Dropper Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/twist-tottle.md) - [Modernized Waste-Free Medication Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-medicine-dispenser.md) - [Targeted Treatment Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pharma-care.md) - [Transparent Mint Liqueurs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mint-liqueur.md)
