Brings premium capping to wider personal care market

Lightweight bi-injection closures go mainstream
Global Closure Systems' Zeller Plastik claims to be the first supplier in Spain to design and produce two new lightweight bi-injection closure designs as part of its standard range, bringing premium capping to the wider personal care market.

Rubi is described as an innovative snap hinge gloss finish oval PP closure design, the base of which curves down at the sides with a softly arched skirt to the back and front. The flip-top dips slightly to the back and front below a prominent lip, which is used to open the cap as an alternative to the thumb recess.

The Perla design also includes a snap hinge oval PP closure but with a matt finish base and gloss flip-top. The cap, which has recently been adopted for Grupo El Arbol’s my hair shampoo and conditioner range, is slightly tapered from the straight skirt to provide a wider top surface suitable for traditional or headstand use.

Both push-on closures come in a range of plain, pearlescent and translucent colours.
