new tpe technology makes cap sealants safer and sustainable

&bullmost sealants for metal lids and caps are manufactured from liquid pvc compounds which require high temperatures for curing.&nbsp&bullthese pvcbased sealant compounds contain phthalates or other plasticizers that are added to the formulation to increase elasticity and workability, thus softening the seal.&bulltpe technology is supplied in granulate form, liquefied using extrusion, and applied directly into the closure.&nbsp&bullsince the process does not require curing, it saves energy, reduces co2 emissions, and reduces production costs. implementing this procedure meets the requirements of sustainable production and conservation with a cleaner process that generates less waste.&nbsp&nbsp&nbsp
