Seal the Deal with Plastic Caps & Closures

September 22, 2024

Sealing, protecting, spraying, pumping, misting, or dispensing, plastic caps and closures allow us to both contain and use products in safe, helpful, and appropriate ways. An easy-to-use, properly designed closure can make the difference between a frustrated and a satisfied customer. 

What Are Plastic Caps & Closures

Molded plastic caps and closures are an integral part of packaging design. Billions of these small but critical parts are made each year, serving industries from pharmaceuticals and cleaning products to food, beverage, and personal care. Caps and closures come in a multitude of styles depending on their purpose, and work with containers and labeling to create consumer-friendly packaging. They can also be made from the same sustainable plastics used for the rest of a product's packaging, adding to consumer satisfaction and reducing environmental impacts. Well-designed and manufactured caps and closures should:


  • Work well
  • Be easy to use
  • Look great
  • Share your product and brand identity
  • Feel good and be easy to grip
  • Use resins that won't react with contents
  • Use sustainable plastics when possible

Benefits of Plastic Caps & Closures

Appropriate caps and closures offer safety and functionality while also serving as part of a product's image and identity. Closures can:


  • Keep food, beverage, health, and medical products safe and uncontaminated 
  • Prevent children from easily opening products
  • Aid seniors and others in easily opening products
  • Indicate if products have been tampered with
  • Preserve freshness
  • Enable spraying, misting, or other uses
