The YAAMES bottle
Your drink.
Right when you want it.
The preparation remains separate from the water until the chosen moment. The user activates it on demand, then mixes and enjoys.

Prototype architecture
Understand the system at a glance.
The prototype combines a main container, an independent capsule positioned beneath the cap and a release interface leading to the liquid. The preparation remains physically separate until the user activates the system.
- 01 · Storage
- A removable capsule receives the dose before use.
- 02 · Separation
- The capsule isolates the preparation from the liquid during transport and storage.
- 03 · Activation
- The mechanism brings the preparation into contact with the liquid at the chosen moment.
- 04 · Validation
- Leak-tightness, dosing, materials and compatibility require qualification for each application.
Start with usable capsule volume, interface dimensions and contact materials. These values must be confirmed for the selected configuration. Cycle life, release accuracy and compliance require supporting test documentation.
Innovation history
An R&D journey documented by a Swiss patent.
Swiss patent
CH 712 853 B1
Benoît Yogo is the inventor and owner of this patent relating to an earlier container closure incorporating a capsule. It is a verifiable milestone in the development of YAAMES technology.
The current design has since evolved to meet user and industrial production requirements. This presentation does not claim that the patent automatically covers the current architecture.
View the official Swissreg record ↗The principle
Two components kept separate.
A mixture activated at the chosen moment.
The dose is stored in a compartment separate from the liquid. At the point of use, a user action opens the transfer interface and brings the two components into contact.
Protect
The dose is stored in a separate compartment, protected from moisture and premature mixing.
Command opening
The user action triggers the release interface at the point of use.
Transfer
Opening the capsule places the dose in communication with the liquid in the container.
The bottle & its capsule
The YAAMES system,
visible in every detail.
A reusable bottle fitted with an integrated capsule. The dose stays separate and is released on demand with one simple action.

The YAAMES experience
A new way
to prepare your drink.
The bottle and its capsule combine personalization, ease of use and preparation at the chosen moment.
Discover the bottle ↗Applications
One technology.
Multiple markets.
Four application areas, with their proposed uses and qualification points. Each integration requires validation for the selected formulation and container.
01 Nutrition & hydration
Prepare a drink at the chosen moment.
A separate capsule offers a route to releasing vitamins, electrolytes or concentrates into a reusable bottle or another beverage container.
To qualifyUsable volume, dissolution, cleaning and formulation compatibility. Beverage-contact materials and supporting compliance documents must be specified.
02 Professional cleaning
Pair a concentrate with its dilution container.
A potential integration into a sprayer or tank: keep the concentrate separate, then trigger its transfer before use.
To qualifyDilution ratio, viscosity, chemical resistance of parts and seals, leak-tightness and handling. Compatibility must be assessed with the selected cleaning product.
03 Water treatment
Release an agent into water when needed.
An application to explore for adding a treatment or remineralization agent to a container, with the dose kept separate until activation.
To qualifyDose, mixing and contact time for the selected formulation. The mechanism transfers an agent; it does not by itself demonstrate purification performance or drinking-water safety.
04 Industry & agriculture
Introduce an additive into a tank.
A development opportunity for maintenance preparations or compatible agricultural additives, starting from a clearly defined use case and container.
To qualifyVolume, viscosity, temperature, possible pressure and material resistance. Geometry and operating conditions must be qualified for each integration.
Industrial value
Designed to become a component of your product.
Geometry, dose volume and interface can be configured for your container.
The preparation and the liquid occupy distinct compartments until activation.
Development covers the transition from prototype to a design suitable for volume manufacturing.
A use case defined with your team to guide system adaptation and testing.
Development
From use case
to industrial pilot.
- 01
Definition
Substance, dose, container, usage constraints and economic objectives.
- 02
Adaptation
Mechanism configuration and compatibility validation.
- 03
Prototype
Leak-tightness, activation, release and mixing tests.
- 04
Industrialization
Production design and definition of the collaboration and supply model.
How is a collaboration defined?
The starting point is an integration study: requirements, mechanism adaptation, a prototype and a test plan. Deliverables and responsibilities are defined for each project.
Any potential license must identify the specific rights or know-how involved, permitted uses and scope of the agreement. A reference to the earlier patent CH 712 853 B1 alone does not define a license for the current architecture.
For U.S. innovators
A platform for the next generation of beverage packaging.
YAAMES helps brands explore products in which an ingredient remains separate from the liquid until the consumer chooses to activate it.
Create a visible activation moment for functional drinks, flavor concentrates and other compatible formulations.
Evaluate an adaptable dosing closure for bottles, reusable containers and new packaging concepts.
Move from a defined use case to compatibility studies, a prototype and preparation for scale-up.

How to use
the YAAMES bottle.
Prepare
Fill the main container with the compatible liquid intended for the application.
Keep separate
Store the compatible preparation in the integrated capsule until it is needed.
Activate
Trigger the mechanism at the chosen moment to release the preparation into the liquid.
Each formulation must be assessed for compatibility, shelf life, dosage and safety before use.
Frequently asked questions
Understand the YAAMES system.
What is YAAMES technology?
A mechanical system that stores a dose separately from a liquid and releases it at the chosen moment. This separation helps protect the preparation until it is used.
Which products can it be integrated into?
In a bottle, beverage container, cleaning tank, mobile water-treatment solution or industrial application requiring a small dose activated on demand.
Does YAAMES support industrial projects?
Yes. Development can include defining the need, adapting the mechanism, producing a prototype and preparing for industrialization.
