Maple syrup producer pores over closure's benefits

Anderson’s Maple Syrup’s new closure boasts ‘no-mess’ feature.

 Anderson’s Maple Syrup, Inc., is a Cumberland, WI-based family business that takes pride in its maple syrup offerings. In the past, however, the screw caps caused the syrup to dribble down the side of the glass bottle during use, causing a sticky mess for consumers. That’s no longer a problem now that the company is using the LiquiFlapper® dispensing closure from Weatherchem (www.weatherchem.com).

Injection-molded of polypropylene, the 38-400 custom burgundy closure ‘s teardrop-shaped orifice and sharp cut-off lip provide a controlled directional flow of the syrup that eliminates messy run-off on the bottles, which are supplied by Arkansas Glass Container Corp. (www.agcc.com).
