Husky has introduced a variety of new tethered closure designs that comply with European legislation concerning Single-Use-Plastic containers with volumes ≤3L. Different neck finishes require different tethering solutions. There is not a one size fits all solution. The neck height, support ledge diameter, brand position, all contribute to a unique requirement.
Two fundamental neck finish types exist.
Your beverage type and the positioning of your brand will determine the most suitable tethering approach to use.
Fully compatible with industry standard neck finishes,
these new closures have been developed with the following design intent and features in mind:
Operation
Industry neck standards
Shell Locking
As non-tethered variants
Target
Promotes Brand Differentiation
Europe SUP Legislation
Ready for Capping Line.
No Secondary Operations Required
Nothing can impact a brand faster than a negative consumer experience. Most tethered closure concepts require the consumer to manipulate the cap after opening. By contrast, Husky’s premium tethered designs make intuitive operation a priority thereby enhancing the consumer experience. An integrated hinge locks the shell in place with one fluid motion. Audible and tactile cues provide feedback to the user when the shell is locked. An innovative integrated cam design ensures a fluid closing motion guiding the shell directly into the neck thread.
Like our non-tethered approach Husky has a dynamic portfolio of tethered solutions compatible with industry standard neck finishes.
Which one to use for your specific application depends upon a variety of factors including (but not limited to):
Beverage type | Intended brand positioning | Neck finish
