New Tuck-In Valve & Design For Sweet Pdz Classic/Powder
Sweet PDZ Horse Stall Refresher is an all-natural, non-toxic and non-hazardous granular mineral that is a superior alternative to hydrated lime & barn lime for ammonia removal and moisture absorption in horse stalls and livestock barns.
The updated package design features the widely recognized shortened name, PDZ, providing for a more concise, catchy and marketable nickname. The 'globe' image represents the growing worldwide marketing effort and global reach, and also tells of the earth-friendly nature of the product. The main focus or usage of Sweet PDZ is centered on equine health and stall maintenance.
The forty-pound Classic/Powder bag now also features a "fully extended/tuck-in valve." This new valve will enhance the appeal of the Sweet PDZ bag, as it will "lock" the bag up tight and prevent it from leakage. The new valve design will make Sweet PDZ more appealing for retail floor merchandising and display at the retail level.
