Parfumer les tabous
Heureusement pour nos narines, et pour l'amour propre des personnes qui se sentent incommodées, le marché ne manque pas de propositions pour nous aider à contourner le problème, du moin lorsqu'il y a une véritable salle de bain. Parmi les plus récentes trouvailles, on remarque le neutralisant d'odeurs Just a drop de Prelam. Cette PME basée à Moncton, au Nouveau-Brunswick, propose en effet un produit non toxique, biodégradable, sans danger pour les fosses sceptiques.Tr/s facile à transporter, il est offert dans une petite bouteille plastifiée qui contient 15 ml d'une solution quasi-miracle, avec son emballage de voyage..
Moncton business with an innovative bathroom air freshener has been named finalist in a national competition for new products.
The Canadian Council of Grocery Distributors management team of the Canadian Grand Prix New Products Awards has named Prelam Enterprise's 'Just a Drop' Magic Odor Neutralizer a Grand Prix finalist in the non-food category for 2004-05.
Prelam Enterprises, owned by Don Goguen and Luc Jalbert recently introduced the product promoting it as innovative and revolutionary. According to Jalbert "It is quite unlike traditional air fresheners."
“Take air care products, for example. The niche has now become a battleground for Fortune 500 companies such as SC Johnson, along with plucky newcomers such as Prelam Enterprises Ltd., a Moncton, NB. company that develops and markets scented products for cars and homes. Prelam marketing manager Luc Jalbert explains : “The air care business is worth $130 million a year in Canada and grocery stores do 40% of it.” At SC Johnson's Toronto office, product manager Tara St. John notes that women buy 89% of the products and that scents come and go at the rate of 25 a year. Battles are being fought for the loyalty of the noses of the nation. Grocers are trophies in this market that, Jalbert says, is growing at 12% to 15% a year, driven by a desire for comfort. Soon Prelam will launch a product that Jalbert says, will revolutionize Canadians' bathroom habits.“
