When selecting a closure for your container, there are many factors to consider in terms of material, size, shape, use and appearance based on specific usage needs and container characteristics. For example, how the product should be dispensed, whether the package needs additional protection and the overall style you want to achieve. As always, be sure to test your products with packaging and closures to ensure compatibility.
Neck finishes
It is important that your caps fit correctly on the bottle or jar neck finish to obtain a proper seal. Threaded or continuous thread closure sizes are indicated by two numbers separated by a hyphen or slash (e.g. 20/410, 20-400). The first number (e.g., 20) is the millimeter diameter measured on the inside of the cap opening or on the outside of the bottle threads. The second number (e.g. 410) refers to the thread pattern.

Gasket Type
Selecting a liner is an important part of the bottle cap selection process. Some liners tend to be more resistant to chemicals than others, while other liner material types are better suited for moisture resistance. Some of the more popular liner types include PE, PV (polyethylene based), PS22 (plain or printed pressure sensitive), induction liners and Polyethylene Seal™ cone liners. Always test your products with the liner of your choice to ensure they are compatible.
Cap Types
Threaded caps have uninterrupted internal screw threads designed to match the neck finish of compatible containers. They can be rotated open or closed as needed for a tight seal and ease of use, and threaded caps are available in a variety of styles and materials.
