Mini beverage closure for PET bottles A new mini beverage closure returns to a more classic and easier opening profile design that delivers maximum performance for PET bottles.
The all new 28mm Xtra-Lok mini from Alcoa Closure Systems International
(CSI) is specifically designed for carbonated soft drinks (CSD) and delivers
total packaging system cost savings by reducing closure and PET bottle
finish weight and increasing product freshness. The “mini”
offers many of the same features and performance found in standard size
closures, but in a lower profile design.
The 28mm Xtra-Lok mini offers many of the same features and performance
found in standard size closures, but in a lower profile design. This new
closure adds to Alcoa CSI’s platform of “mini” closures
for a variety of beverage applications including soft drinks, water, and
malt beverages. (shown at right) -> “In addition, the mini closure was designed to help beverage bottlers build brand equity with an easy opening closure offering using Alcoa CSI’s “sure grip” knurl, specifically designed for this closure,” commented Javier Espagnol, Director of Marketing at Alcoa CSI Mexico and Central America. The Xtra-Lok mini closure is a lightweight, 2-piece design that contributes to reducing a bottler’s overall cost of operations. When applied to the Alcoa-designed short height bottle finish, PET bottle finish weight is reduced by 27% while maintaining all the same performance parameters as previous generation bottle finishes. On the inside, the new closure design integrates Alcoa CSI’s high performance XT* liner which maximizes seal integrity and product freshness under all environmental conditions. The Xtra-Lok mini closure also delivers superior application performance in bottling operations, which means improved uptime and higher throughput for bottlers. Finally, using Alcoa CSI’s “quick-change” capper conversion kit, “mini” closures can be easily integrated into existing bottling lines, which contributes to increased line uptime when switching between short height and standard size closures. “The Alcoa advantage,” Grainda stated, “is our total
systems integration. That means we supply not only a new closure, but
the capping equipment, the technical support, and the strength and expertise
of a global company in delivering this total packaging solution.
