According to Cortec Corporation, supply chain shortages have forced some aerosol filling companies to bypass mid-size customers in order to allocate limited resources to their largest accounts. Cortec Spray Technologies (CST) says it is ready with a supply of cans and components to back up mid-size customers in need of spray can filling alternatives. With its capacity of almost five million cans per year, the company hopes to meet the needs of mid-size clients overlooked by other contract fillers and to accept new accounts.

CST has three aerosol filling options: contract filling of the client’s own formulations, private labeling of aerosols based on Cortec in-house formulas (choose from dozens of cleaners and rust preventative products) and formulation support to design custom aerosol products.

CST has experience formulating and filling a wide range of aerosol products, with a focus on cleaners, rust preventatives, lubricants and other maintenance products.

According to CST, the process for practically any product is as follows:

  1. Discuss Product Details—Tell CST about the product or discuss CST’s own private-label chemistry options.
  2. Adapt to Aerosol Format—This step involves deciding between traditional aerosols and propellants versus “green” bag-on-valve (BOV) EcoAir Technology powered by compressed air. From there, the CST lab will experiment with various formulation blends to get the right product consistency for aerosol application.
  3. Choose Packaging— In addition to choosing traditional aerosol or EcoAir cans, decide on can size, cap color and style and labeling (professional lithograph options are available).
