For the third year in a row, Silgan Closures has awarded two lucky startups with a bounty of caps—up to 500,000 stock closures, to be exact—in its 2021 Free Closures for Year Contest. The contest first launched in 2019 as a way to promote Silgan’s stock closure program while giving fledgling brands a hand-up with their ventures. Along with the closures, the winners also receive consumer insights on their products from Datassential Scores.

The first winner is PRO.J, a functional beverage that combines protein with orange juice. PRO.J was developed by Dr. Nathan Feldman and Daniel Schapiro, founders EB Performance, along with partner Steve Rittmanic, as a premium beverage hybrid that integrates the best qualities of traditional protein/meal replacement, bottled orange juice, and natural refreshment drinks.

PRO.J is packaged in a shelf-stable, 16-oz PET bottle with a Silgan 38 VSI hot-fill closurePRO.J is packaged in a shelf-stable, 16-oz PET bottle with a Silgan 38 VSI hot-fill closureScheduled to launch in early in 2022 in select Florida retailers as well as on Amazon and on the brand’s website, PRO.J is packaged in a shelf-stable, 16-oz PET bottle from Amcor.
