As a back up to the information on each pack, the Trixie catalogue contains a chart listing the kind of breeds each of the 6 symbols in the ‘coat type guidance system’ relates to. ‘Curly coat’ examples being Poodle or Bichon Frise breeds, ‘smooth coat’ Dalmatian or Doberman and wire coat Fox Terrier or Cairn Terrier. Cat breed examples such as Main Coon and Persian are also used as examples. In the Trixie catalogue, each of the six coat types is assigned a number from 1 - 6 which appears alongside each product description, again to indicate coat type suitability.

 

Trixie grooming tools are individually packed in blister packs with a distinctive blue and red display card. The pack can be easily opened and the product removed and returned to the pack without damaging the pack.
