Three product tablets are tucked behind a peel-off label inside a recessed compartment in the bottle's body. Once home, consumers simply add tap water and a single tablet to the 32-oz spray bottle to produce the solution—either glass cleaner, all-purpose cleaner or fabric deodorizer. Wonder Tablitz lists multiple advantages for retailers and consumers: The product supports retailer sustainability objectives; it costs up to 50 percent less than comparable cleaners; it eliminates large refill bottles; and it reduces the use of plastic bottles by two thirds or more. Because each Wonder Tablitz unit represents three 32-oz bottles, fewer corrugated boxes are required, and shipping costs are reduced. The result is fewer carbon dioxide emissions and less landfill waste. On the converting plus side: Refill tablets are available, sold in fifth-panel, paperboard folding cartons that are either die-cut for pegboard display or grouped 10 to a colorful, point-of-purchase display box.
