Enviro-Cap Limited is dedicated to providing sustainable caps and lids for a wide range of industries including food and drink, personal care and homecare. As well as providing aluminium solutions for customers, Enviro-Cap champions another sustainable and often overlooked material, tinplate.

Tinplate closures are a cost-effective alternative to aluminium, whereby the product still benefits from the classic and sort-after raw metal look. The material has increased durability, serving as a reliable option that is still equally as recyclable.  

Tinplate is a well-established material for closures and is the predominant material used in Enviro-Cap’s sales into Europe, particularly into the pharmaceutical and nutraceutical sectors.

Its key features are:

• 100% recyclable metal.
• Lower cost versus aluminium.
• Increased durability.
• Highly conducive to Induction Heat Seal applications.
• Suitable for all dry products.

Enviro-Cap offers tinplate closures in various colours, such as gold and silver with EPE liners. The EPE liner is a first-class liner for dry products, cosmetics, wines and spirits and household chemicals, and has outstanding sealing properties.

For alternative liners for aqueous products, tamper-proof heat seal and pressure seal applications are also available.
