Designed to align with Europe’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) and Single-Use Plastics (SUP) directive, Aptar Closures’ solutions help brands stay compliant while delivering the elevated performance today’s consumers expect. Ideal for a wide range of beverage applications – from sports and energy drinks to juices and water – the company’s highlights at Drinktec include:
NexTE 29.25 Sport Closure
With a sleek, streamlined design and integrated tamper-evident latching, the NexTE Sport Closure provides a familiar and intuitive one-handed opening experience while enhancing consumer safety. The closure features a visible, non-detachable tamper-evident band that flexes back for a comfortable lid opening motion, combining user-friendliness with regulatory compliance and improved drinking experience. NexTE is suitable for both ambient and dry aseptic fill applications.
Rocket GME 30.40 Sport Closure
The premium three-piece Rocket Sport Closure features a wide, comfortable opening enabled by advanced hinge technology that eliminates spring-back and enhances drinkability. Its highly visible, non-removable tamper-evident band clearly indicates if the product has been opened, providing added security for consumers. Fully tethered and SUP-compliant, Rocket is also optimized for recyclability and supports both ambient and dry aseptic fill applications. The closure enables the transition to a lighter neck finish (GME 30.40), allowing brands to reduce bottle weight without compromising the drinking experience. Rocket is available with a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) valve, and development of multiple neck finishes is ongoing.
