Container Lid
Closures: Lid and Cap Styles - Part 1
Sometimes it's easy to get lost in the all the details when attempting to search for new product packaging. Don't get bombarded by the vivid colors and sleek styles of the containers to the point that you forget the significance of closures.
Different styles of lids and caps have a lot to offer in terms of varying appearance and functionality. Read on to learn more about a few choice closure styles.
- Disc Top Caps
Disc top caps are circular dispensing lids characterized by their disk-like shape when in its open position. Built with an indented area cohesive to gripping and eventually opening the cap, the design greatly influences the functionality. This type of cap can often be found dispensing shampoo and lotion products. If you're looking for squeezable packaging, consider pairing this closure with a LDPE bottle. Our disc top caps are either ribbed or smooth and come in white, black, natural and copper colors.
- Flip Top Cap
The flip top cap is an easy to use cap that can be recognized on several everyday items like hair and lotion products. This style of lid has an extended lip with room underneath to be pushed up, flipped back and opened. The lid's hinge enables this practice of opening and allows for closing in a similar fashion, but pushing down, bending at the hinge and closing. Our flip top caps are either black or white and come in smooth or ribbed styles.
- Spouted Cap
In its closed position the spouted cap looks similar to many other styles of closures, but it has one feature that sets it apart. This uniquely designed cap includes a levered spout, which when closed lays stowed away in an open space within the lid, but when flipped open, extends beyond the boundary of the lid. This formation allows the closure to dispense product directly to specified areas, making it a favorite for both hair and lotion products.
- Push/Pull Lid
The push/pull lid can be found on a variety of products. The lid is possibly most recognizable as a water bottle closure. Pulling the lid will force the outside portion of the lid to move up, allowing for product to be dispensed. Pushing will force the outside of the lid back down until it meets up with the orifice reducer, which shuts off the opening completely. You can also find push/pull lids on liquid dish detergent containers.
Well, you may not be a closure expert just yet, but I bet you learned some valuable lessons today. Don't feel boxed in by closures, you have countless options, choose which one will work best for your product.
Stay tuned for the second portion of this article where we will highlight several other closure types. Until then feel free to check out our closure collection and learn more about closures and other packaging information at Container and Packaging Supply University (CPSU).
