Aptar Food + Beverage introduces Rocket, its next-generation sport cap. Rocket sport cap offers visual consumer safety through a yellow-colored band - a visual and intuitive non-detachable tamper evidence indicator - that indicates whether the packaging has been opened on store shelves or at home.

Rocket features a yellow-colored tamper-evident band.

In addition to its visible safety, Rocket provides further safety to consumers with its “no-dust”, double-wall lid design that protects the spout from external contaminants, in addition to being designed to adhere to child safety standards (BSDA). A large finger recess and audible closing “click” sound make opening and closing Rocket easy and reassuring for consumers.

Rocket opens at a 180-degree angle.

Nguyen Hoang, Sebastien, global business development director beverage, said that the design and functionality of Rocket enhance what consumers and brands expect from a sport cap. For example, while most caps open at a 110-degree angle, Rocket’s hinge technology offers a 180-degree angle. The hinge functionality also ensures the elimination of a lid spring-back effect.

Besides, the tamper-evident band is tethered to the bottle through its lifecycle, and therefore increases the likelihood of the closure being collected and sent through the recycling stream with the container. Rocket complies with upcoming regulations, including the Single-Use Plastic (SUP) directive proposal in Europe.
