Golden Grip Tube Opener

Golden Artist Colors is invested in helping artists at every stage of their creative journey with quality products, information, and product support.  To improve the user experience of its packaging, GOLDEN is introducing a new tube cap for 2 and 5 oz. GOLDEN Acrylic tubes.  The new deep-cog design is more comfortable to use with a smoother grip that is 35% taller, providing more surface area and leverage.  New caps will begin rolling out in the first half of 2019 and will flow through store shelves as a product with existing caps sells through.

The new cap is an improvement in packaging design for customers, but acrylic paints can also act as glue between caps and tubes when dry, so artists may continue to have difficulty removing even the new caps from time to time.  Additionally, people with diminished manual dexterity or hand strength find the small caps on most paint tubes difficult or even painful to work with.
