Standard Recessed Membrane Can Technology

Our recessed membrane technology delivers superior product protection with a tight seal, helping to extend product shelf life. This solution offers:

• Easy-Open & Re-Sealable: Consumers can easily open and securely reseal the container for continued freshness after each use.

• Aluminium Closure with Tear-Out Membrane & Pull Tab: This design minimises the risk of tearing off the tab, making the opening process smoother and safer.

• Tighter Reclose with Audible ‘Click’: A reassuring click sound indicates that the package has been securely resealed, providing peace of mind to consumers.

Variety of Top Closures for Versatile Applications

Sonoco provides an array of top closure options to meet the unique needs of different products and industries:

• Flat Membrane: For a sleek, minimalist look that ensures a strong seal.

• Sprinkler Top: Ideal for products like seasonings or powders, offering controlled dispensing for consumers.

• Easy-Open Ends: Provide durability and easy access, while maintaining a robust seal to keep out oxygen, moisture, and unwanted aromas.

These closures can be further enhanced with custom printing or embossing, allowing your brand to stand out on the shelf while providing the functionality consumers expect.

Reinforced Freshness with Overcaps & Plug-In Lids

To complement our ends and closures, Sonoco offers additional solutions like:
