Linerless closure

New Steri-Shield linerless plug closure technology for aseptic beverage packages meets the rigorous demands of aseptic applications. The category has traditionally used closures with thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or foil liners to achieve seal integrity for both low- and high-acid beverages. By eliminating the liners, the plug design helps minimize package cost and contributes to material source reduction. The aseptic linerless plug closures are compression molded using a proprietary resin blend, which includes high-density PE. The end result is a lightweight closure that does not fail (stress crack or back-off, for example) during the sterilization and/or distribution process.
