About Clickseal Dhalada Biyuhu

Daboolka Clickseal waa hal-abuur, madadaalo, fudud oo degdeg ah in lagu shaqeeyo, iyada oo aan lahayn wax dun ah. Daboolka dhalada dhaqameedku wuxuu jiray in ka badan qarni wuxuuna ujeeddadii si fiican u fuliyay. Si kastaba ha ahaatee, iyada oo ujeedadu tahay in la nadiifiyo oo diiradda la saaro waayo-aragnimada cabitaanka lafteeda. Ka dib cilmi baarista isticmaalaha, waxaa la go'aamiyay in dib loo habeeyo furka iyo habka furitaanka iyo xiritaanka. Daboolka waxaa lagu furay maroojin sahlan oo rubuc ah wuxuuna xiraa si tartiib ah ilaa aad ka maqasho gujinta, taas oo muujinaysa in furku si ammaan ah u xiran yahay oo uusan dillaacin. Ku raaxayso

Unique Properties
Clickseal cap is innovative, FUN, easy and fast to operate, without any threading.

The traditional bottle cap has been around for over a century and has served its purpose well. However, we were asked to develop an innovative drinking bottle. We chose to focus on and refine the drinking experience itself. Following user research, we decided to redesign the cap and the process of opening and closing it.

Production Technology
The Clickseal is made in Israel by Source company and produced from durable and quality materials:

Quality bottle container Tritan by Eastman
Uniqe formula of Acetal cap
Silicone sealing
PE tube

BPA+PVC Free
Design Challenge
The action and solution are easy and straightforward, but the engineered patented cap was definitely not,
we had years of tryouts to develop the best solution with the best materials for heavy-duty use.

After hundreds of extreme testing - like throwing bottles on the floor at various angles and heights, we developed our own unique material for the cover and cup.
We used focus groups for every revision development until we got the finalized solution.

The hardest part was to find the exact balance of the silicone seal, so it would Click and be fun and easy as we wanted it to be, without compromising the sealing mission. That took dozens of revisions.
Research
Our incentive was to innovate the experience for the user, we dedicated a great effort to finalizing the concept, to have the most fun out of the simplest action, such as opening and closing the bottle cap without compromising on the leakproof sealing.
Inspiration
In the process of enhancing the bottle-drinking experience, we were inspired by the tubing industry that uses irrigation connectors.
We looked at a simple daily garden hose connector, that was the first inspiration,
following that principle, We developed a revolutionary cap that opens and closes with an intuitive "click" motion.
Project Duration
The development project started in 2019 and finished in 2022 in Israel
Operation Flow
The cap is opened with a simple quarter twist and closes with a gentle push until you hear the CLICK, indicating that the cap is securely closed and leakproof.

As there is no threading, there is also no need to tighten the cap with force - One of the most significant advantages of this new cap design is that it can be opened and closed with minimal effort therefore much easier to use for everybody, children, people with arthritis or other conditions that affect hand mobility, or just when training, traveling outdoors or just driving a car.

The new bottle cap design is sleek and modern. The cap is available in a range of colors. All bottles are made of Tritan (BPA-free).
The designed cap comes in 2 different bottle models, ACT a single-wall water bottle and ECO a double-walled daily bottle with an insulating space between the walls to prevent the bottle from sweating.
