convenience

 

Today’s metal packaging is available with a variety of convenient closures which make life easier for the consumer. Easy open and peelable ends mean that the can opener is becoming a part of history.

Metal is also used in combination with other packaging materials to provide a secure closure. Glass containers are often sealed with vacuum closures made of tinplate to keep the containers air-tight and retain the flavour of the contents.

Twist-off or prise-off lids often feature vacuum detection devices which show if the container has been opened.

Crown corks are the classic metal closure for reusable and disposable glass used for beer, mixed beer drinks, soft drinks and water.

Aerosol cans give convenience at the touch of a button. Shaped cans are ergonomic, user friendly and easier to hold.
