When you're looking for the perfect container, it is essential to be sure that it will arrive with the proper qualities and without any setbacks despite distance or any other risk that may arise during distribution and storage. An essential factor to guarantee the protection of your product is the liner. Find out everything you need to know below.
What is the liner for?
Many of the packaged products that we consume daily have a kind of hermetic seal that is placed between the opening of the container and the cap. This protection is known as a liner. The liner is made from a soft plastic resin and is very common 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.
Liner varieties
- Foamed Liner
It is very thin and 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 closure.
- Induction Liner
In this type of liner, the seal contains a very thin aluminum foil to preserve the shelf life of the product. That is why it is very common to find it in dairy products, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. To place it, heat is needed to achieve the perfect closure, however, they are very easy to detach.
- Liner with ventilation valve
It is mainly used in products that usually generate gases such as agrochemicals or carbonated beverages. A valve balances the pressure generated by the product inside the container so that there are no leaks or deformations.
Why should you use a liner?
- Guarantees that your product is new
- It is a seal of authenticity
- It gives a more secure presentation to your brand, to create a trust bond with your consumer.
- The content will have a longer shelf life, and its freshness and flavor will remain unchanged.
- It offers the security that it will arrive with the appropriate features, despite the distance or any risk that may arise during its distribution and storage.
