The two companies have in recent months been carrying out various validation tests, in the laboratory and on production lines, on the functionality and ease of use of the SUPER 26/22 system. This contrasts with a PCO1881 cap that is 17.0 mm high and weighs 3.8g, almost twice as much-and which takes caps that can be up to 0.6g heavier. A CETIE 26/22 for still water is the same height as the SUPER 26/22 neck, but weighs 1.90 g.Ī special “high” version suitable also for CSD till 4,2 CO2 weights 2.3 g. The new SUPER 26/22 system is distinguished by a very low height and weight-the neck is just 12.0 mm high in its standard version and weighs just 1.86 grams (1.82 g in a version with SACMI’s Multi-Lock system, which breaks all the links on the security ring as soon as the user begins to unscrew the cap). The development was aimed at bottles up to 3.5vol of CO2 and 1,5L in volume, and was intended to be compatible with 26-mm CETIE GME 30.28 necks. Then, they wanted to create a closure system that was as easy as possible to use while still offering the safety and security features of current systems, for example.
The first objective was to use the same combination of neck/cap both for still and carbonated water eliminating the time for line changes and therefore saving money. The two companies set themselves various objectives, apart from weight reduction. stands for Sustainable, Unique, Productive, Easy, and Reliable. Their target is a new combination of PET preforms and closures that provides advantages for processors and end-users alike. project, which aims to deliver new combinations of lightweight screw caps and PET bottle necks for the latest generation of bottles for still and sparkling waters. The two companies have been working together since 2012 on the S.U.P.E.R. Collaboration between SIPA and Italian cap & closure production technology specialist SACMI is yielding positive results.
