The story of the Cloc Spout and the efficacy of practical, waste-free dosing.

The dispensing system that makes life easier

When we came up with the idea of the Cloc Spout, in order to present it as the great innovation it is, we thought of families having their milk and cereals for breakfast, where half the cereals would end up in bowl, quite a lot would be spilt across the table, and the rest would fall back somewhere between bag and box.

Sound familiar?

To solve this problem, as evident as it is widespread, we started thinking “out of the box” and what we came up with was called Cloc.

Cloc, an onomatopoeic name, a distinctive mark.
It was a real innovation not just in terms of integrated dosing systems, but for the packaging world in general too. The Cloc Spout is mono-material and ecological, it can be integrated perfectly in boxes of products like breakfast cereals, corn flakes, pet food and more.

Our first presentation was welcomed with enthusiasm:
not only had we invented a new dosing system, we’d also now made it possible to apply the concept of “fast packaging” to product categories that until then had no kind of valid, practical packaging.

Why?
Because it effectively, quickly and practically solves problems and difficulties related to product dispensing: what’s more, a Cloc Spout box can easily be closed again to seal the freshness in for longer.

Designed with your daily experience in mind: open your packet of corn flakes, pour the cereal into the bowl, close the bag again inside the box. See? As well as the extra time required to replace and close the bag again in the original pack, the box “swells” at the bottom making it almost impossible to close the tabs at the top again properly.

Based on our vast experience, here at Tacom we’re convinced pack innovation begins by improving the customer’s experience. Making things simpler is always the best choice for a consumer, and this added value is the key to customer retention.
