In the packaging industry, caps with a liner are perfect for protecting products, as they facilitate handling, transport, and storage. The liner is made from a soft plastic resin and it is very common to find it in the cosmetic, pharmaceutical, and food industries. They are ideal for containers that must be transported over long distances since they prevent spills, accidents, and contamination of the content. In addition, this tool certifies that the product is original and new and that it has not been opened.
Which liner to choose?
Foam liner: It is very thin and is made of a soft polymer. It has a foam sheet on both sides to prevent the passage of air and bacteria. It also offers a secure hermetic seal.
Induction liner: In this type of liner, the seal contains a very thin aluminum sheet to preserve the expiration date of the product. That is why it is very common to find it in dairy, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. To place it, heat is needed to achieve the perfect seal, however, they are very easy to detach.
Liner with vent valve: It is mainly used in products that tend to generate gases such as agrochemicals or carbonated drinks. Through a valve, the pressure generated by the product inside the container is balanced so that there are no leaks or deformations.
