Idylle Guerlain 10-14-2009
 
For Guerlain's new fragrance « Idylle », Axilone has produced a pure drop of gold, in perfect harmony with the sensual curves of the perfume’s bottle. The way the colour of the stopper matches that of the bottle, is the result of considerable technical expertise.

The stopper is made from a metallised plastic and comes in 2 sizes (for 30ml and 50/100ml bottles). It comprises several, individually produced pieces : an insert in black PP, an extra element to provide weight and an air of solidity, a galvanised golden collar and a cap, vacuum metallized in gold. The pieces are put together in a single, mechanical operation, saving a considerable amount of time.

The design and development process was very short : Axilone only needed 4 months to finalise the product and put together the assembly machine.

Optimising logistics management : the finished pieces are placed on special thermoformed trays, which are then palletised. Once the stoppers are delivered to Guerlain, the trays are returned to Axilone and used for the next delivery.

Axilone combines tradition and technology – An Issey Miyake perfume 09-29-2009
 
Axilone is one of the world's leading manufacturers in caps and closures for the perfume, cosmetics and make up industry.

The cap of the perfume bottle brings together tradition and technology, and takes on the aspect of a block of ice. The juxtaposed polished and frosted rectangular faces, punctuate the pure and raw lines of the bottle. As a whole, the artefact looks as if it is frozen.

This creation is an example of Axilone's technical expertise and skills in producing an industrial object with a sensual touch. The difficulty lying in the smoothness of the surfaces, and their restricted volumes. The cap is made from Surlyn and produced in three sizes.

Even with the cap off, the bottle loses none of its feel and look of transparency. The spray pump cover is also made from a translucent material so as not to detract from the « pure and infinite beauty » of the crystalline object as a whole.

Zen for Men - Shiseido 09-29-2009
 
Axilone is one of the world's leading manufacturers in caps and closures for the perfume, cosmetics and make up industry.

With this cap, Axilone relies on a sophisticated combination of refined, pure, angular lines and reflections. The shade of blue evokes the infinite power of time and space. Silver adds sophistication and confidence. And when brought together, the two colours symbolise spiritual energy.

The cap is made up of a number of parts manufactured from galvanised plastic: an insert in black PP ; an extra element to provide weight and an air of solidity; a metal, mirror effect sheet covered with a piece of polished SAN.

Axilone USA : a burning lipstick for MAC 09-25-2009
 
This lipstick case – a limited edition – is made of gold anodized aluminium.

The red dégradé results from a particular process. First of all, the case has been anodized. Then each color has been successively sprayed without any other pass on the production line. The fineness of the color gradation only depends on the angle of inclination of the sprays during the tinting process.




Once the tinting had been done, the case has been varnished in order to fix the color and make the case more shiny.

The brand’s monogram - MAC - has been debossed on the top of the case whereas it has been silk-screened at the base of the case.

Axilone transmits its passion for metal to Boss Orange 09-25-2009
 
Axilone is one of the world's leading manufacturers in caps and closures for the perfume, cosmetics and make up industry.

This U shaped envelope is made from a single block of anodised, mirror effect metal. It perfectly illustrates Axilone's ability to model, sculpt and forcibly mould a raw material until it perfectly marries the contours of the bottle.

The brand name is engraved in the metal support, which contrasts magnificently with the energy, warmth and optimism of the orange coloured liquid it encloses.

A subtle blend of style and fantasy.

A new Challenge – Lacoste for Axilone 09-25-2009
 
Axilone is one of the world's leading manufacturers in caps and closures for the perfume, cosmetics and make up industry.

The company has recently designed and produced the cap for the bottle of Lacoste's new perfume for men, Challenge. The cap and collar are made using an overmoulded bi-injection process. An elastomer polymer was used to provide a soft touch effect, similar to that of a tennis racket grip. The cap looks sporty with a hint of irresistible charm.

Axilone overcame the technical problems of production by using PP, a more sophisticated raw material, but which fits better onto the glass bottle.

Bi-injection has a number of advantages, including automation and product non manipulation. Production can be monitored and managed a lot more easily.

Axilone is happy to take on projects that are technically complicated and challenging.
