Packaging Tip

Choosing the Right
Container for You!

While packaging compatibility is always suggested, when packaging items that may have complex formulas, chemicals or oils, it is especially important to test the product and container to make sure they are well-suited for one another. Various liners are often suggested depending on your product type and usage. Many times it is advised to use a liner with certain products to maintain tamper evidence, preserve product freshness or to prevent leakage. Induction lined caps and PS-22 lined caps are common for such requirements. For an introduction to applying induction lined caps, click on the links below for additional information and a full demonstration.
