Attached caps: Tethered caps

To ensure that the caps on beverage containers of PET no longer get lost so easily and end up as waste in the environment, and as of 2024, in the EU, they will have to remain connected (tethered) to the packaging once opened. 

Basically, at tethered caps, a distinction must be made between hinged caps and screw caps: 

  • Hinged caps – also known as flip lids, flip tops and thumb-ups – have a design which keeps them permanently connected to the bottle right from the outset. 
  • With screw caps, on the other hand, the connection between container and cap must be realised by an additional feature. 

Krones offers just the right sorting and capping technology for every variant.
