Prodyne created the beverage infusion craze with its Fruit Infusion Pitcher in 2009. The stylish pitcher allowed for anyone to easily make and enjoy healthy, natu- ral fruit flavored beverages. The acrylic pitcher features a removable fruit infu- sion rod that can easily be filled with fresh cut lemons, limes, oranges, rasp- berries and more. Open slots in the rod allow liquids and fresh fruit to mix nat- urally to give your beverages a wonder- ful fruit infused flavor. This was an economical and healthy alternative to artificially flavored beverages as the pitcher can continually be refilled with- out having to replace the fruit for up to seven days. This year, Prodyne is excited to expand its popular collection of infu- sion beverageware with the introduc- tion of the Fruit Infusion Flavor Jar. The new 45-ounce jar is easy to fill with a good portion of sliced fruit and bever- age for a great robust flavor. The removable neck has a strainer to hold back fruit while you pour. The easy-grip cap with air-tight silicone seal helps keep your beverages fresh and allows you to shake for rapid infusion. The jar can be continually refilled for up to seven days or more without replacing fruit. It easily fits in the refrigerator, always ready to pour and enjoy. The crystal clear jar is avail- able in three attractive color accents; YouCopia's New Products Deliver 'Woo Hoo' Feeling For customers who enjoy being organ- ized, but not necessarily the process to get there, YouCopia is introducing new products designed to inspire confidence at home. Celebrating its 10th anniversary at this year's show, the company offers organization products that are easily cus- tomized to fit different needs and spaces, without any installation. New packaging features fresh colors that pop off the retail shelf, and clearly communicates the product benefits. Leading the 2018 new product line- up is the StoraLid™, an adjustable con- tainer lid organizer for the cabinet or drawer. "Customers have been begging us to come up with an easy way to corral all their container lids in the kitchen," says YouCopia President Lauren Greenwood. Two compartments organize lids of various shapes and sizes, while movable dividers – one long and four short – help create smaller spaces that keep lids upright and ready to be found. Center slots hold round lids in place and allow for faster drying time. SRP for the StoraLid is $14.99. "To tie in with the hydration trend and the pro- liferation of water bottles in the home, we are i n t r o d u c i n g B o t t l e S t a n d ™ , the first-ever organizer for water, thermal and travel bottles in the cabinet or draw- er," Greenwood says. The BottleStand holds eight bottles either horizontally in a cabinet or verti- cally in a drawer. The unit stays in place with a non-slip border so bottles are easy to find, remove and replace.
