Resin for closures

Pro-fax(TM) SV-956 polypropylene resin from Montel (Wilmington, DE) is used to meet tolerances necessary to achieve a balance of stiffness and impact properties for easy-opening, wide- and medium-mouth closures produced by Pano Cap Canada (Phoenix, MD).

Apr 30, 1998

The partnership between the two companies helped Pano Cap select the proper resin for a line of TE closures molded in one piece that include a continuous-thread closure, new tear-away band and pull-tab. Available in 58-, 63-, 70-, 77-, 83-, 89- and 110-mm sizes.
