Learn about the causes and cures for leaks and bottle paneling

See how changing your capping approach can aid package integrity and improve profitability

In this video, Packaging World’s Pat Reynolds, Jason Stull Vice President of Sales at Mold-Rite Plastics and Karlis Mateus, President of M Industries discuss the challenges that can occur when containers aren’t properly vented. Too often entire shipments can be returned if leaks, bloating or paneling are present—cutting into the brand owner’s bottom line.

Viewers will learn how changing your capping approach can reduce these issues, and situations where "venting" can be particularly well-suited, such as when brands are packaging cleaning agents or agriculture chemicals, when hot-filling is desired on the production line, or when transport may cause pressure variations due to changes in temperature or elevation.
