Colours
BERICAP offers a comprehensive colour-matching
service. However it is important to bear in mind that
pigments can have an influence on taste and odour,
must be approved for direct contact with food, and
have a major impact on the moulding process and
hence the dimensions of the closure.
BERICAP has already tested and approved about 50
different pigments to give our customers an “off the
shelf” range of colours to choose from.
Capping
The BERICAP DoubleSeal can be handled on virtually
any appropriately designed
and correctly set capper.
BERICAP is proud to offer
high level tech nical assis -
tance and has developed
a state-of-the-art capping
head to guarantee con -
sistent and convenient
removal torques. We can
also provide bespoke
chucks for all of the most
common capping heads.

PRINTED JULY 2011
BERICAP
for PCO 1810
for carbonated beverages

The BERICAP DoubleSeal technology was developed
to achieve an outstandingly secure seal on PET
bottles. Unavoidable damage to PET bottle necks
can occur from time to time, small scratches on
the inside bore or dents on the outside surface of
the neck. DoubleSeal technology, as the name
implies, copes with this minor damage by virtue
of having two seals, one on the inner surface and
one on the outer. DoubleSeal can thus accommodate
the minor damage encountered more easily
than competitive products.
The DoubleSeal is not just another linerless closure;
it is an outstanding concept. This linerless closure
performs better than conventional lined closures.
Eliminating the liner means avoiding all risks
related to a liner like off-taste, angel hair, flakes,
gushing, too low heat resistance at elevated
temperatures that can occur during transportation
and storage.
The DoubleSeal technology is in use for CSD,
still products with or without nitrogen, hot filled
or aseptically filled products and in all situations
requiring enhanced sealability of the package.
The DoubleSeal for CSD high carbonation has
been used commercially since 1998 in all climatic
zones, for example in Russia, Germany, Turkey,
Sudan, India, Brazil, Florida US and China. It has
proven its quality in hot and cold climate, on
good and bad roads, in supermarkets, very basic
retail outlets and vending machines. Many billions
are produced every year in the various BERICAP
locations.

All values in this table are specific for the bottles tested together with our closures.
The values are indicative and require testing with bottles selected for a purpose.
The DoubleSeal standard for high carbonation
(8g/litre) is a 3,2g closure designed and tested to
comply with all known climatic conditions around
the globe. There are versions for both non-refillable
bottle variants. The DoubleSeal standard can be
pasteurised under certain conditions.
The DoubleSeal eco is a 2,8g closure for carbonation
up to 8g/litre designed and tested to comply with
moderate climatic conditions. It can be used for low
carbonation (4 to 5g/litre CSD) in all climatic conditions.

The DoubleSeal Vent is a closure designed for
beverages with risk of fermentation after first opening.
Once reaching 6-9 bar inside the bottle the closure
releases automatically.
The closure design of DoubleSeal hotfill takes the
thicker wall of a bottle into consideration which is
suitable for withstanding high filling temperatures
of up to 86°C. One piece hotfill closures on thick wall
PET neck finishes are mainly used in Asia and Europe.
Printing
We can customise DoubleSeal by printing the top
surface with up to three colours. We can also assist
with artwork origination to ensure maximum impact
whilst recognising the constraints of printing on
plastic closures.
Embossing
DoubleSeal can be embossed on the top surface.
This option usually requires large production lots
to justify the cost of mould inserts and downtime
to change the inserts.
Promotions
DoubleSeal can be UTC laser printed on the inner
surface of the top plate of the closure. Laser printing
gives a variety of options, including numbers, letters
and symbols.
Please note laser printing is not yet available at all
BERICAP factories.
