Tamper-evident caps & seals: essential for product integrity and compliance

In today’s beverage market, where safety, design and sustainability are key values, tamper-evident caps & seals are indispensable. These systems guarantee product integrity, protecting consumers from accidental contamination or tampering, while ensuring compliance with global regulations.

Tamper-evident caps and seals play a critical role in safeguarding product integrity for the beverage industry. A well-designed tamper evident seal provides immediate visual protection, instantly revealing any unauthorized opening and thereby strengthening consumer trust. 

Beyond this, they help ensure regulatory compliance, as many legislations worldwide, including those set by the EU and FDA, require safety seals on food and beverage products, especially those sold in regulated markets. 

Additionally, they protect brand reputation, as today’s consumers increasingly value integrity and transparency in the products they choose.

Pelliconi offers several solutions specially designed for the beverage industry:

28 mm Lightweight - 1881: one-piece 28 mm that offers a high-performance solution for beverages such as sparkling water and highly carbonated soft drinks. This bottle cap is manufactured from HDPE material, ensuring durability and a secure seal. This tamper-evident 1881 cap combines efficiency, material reduction, and product protection.

Novaspark 28 mm: one-piece closure (without additional inner liner) for highly carbonated beverages; its knurls and guarantee band are printed at the production stage, developed for bottles with 1881 mouthpiece. Its design allows for easy opening and re-closing, and features slots for venting the carbonation when opening, for the safety of the end user and preventing uncontrolled capsule release (blow-off).

43 mm: linerless closure designed for mineral water or non-carbonated beverages; features molded bridges and a folded tamper-evident band. The three initial threads facilitate both opening and closing of the cap, making it compatible with standard 43 mm bottle finishes.

HOD closures for large volumes (3–6 gal): the one-piece HOD bottle caps are specifically designed for water dispenser use. These non-spill water caps are engineered to stay securely in place when the bottle is inverted. Each tamper evident HOD cap includes a heat-sealed protective label that prevents external contaminants from entering the central cavity.

Pelliconi’s tamper-evident caps offer a range of advantages that go beyond simple sealing. Thanks to aesthetic integration, they feature a discreet guarantee band that can be customized to align perfectly with brand identity. Their functional design ensures easy opening and reclosing while maintaining a perfect seal until the product’s first use. 

All Pelliconi solutions are developed to meet high safety standards, complying with international regulations for food-contact materials and reinforcing consumer confidence, choosing quality for your customers and for your beverages.

In the beverage sector, where product integrity is crucial for trust and compliance, adopting quality tamper-evident caps & seals is a strategic choice. For Pelliconi, packaging becomes a true guarantee of safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
