silgan's KS2 offers solutions to issues that have plagued home and office delivery bottle users, fillers, and re-fillers. It is molded of a proprietary blend of resins that resist cracking and features a pierceable shell design that virtually eliminates spillage. Closure also incorporates a flow-in closure liner for a superior bottle seal and a tamper-evident band to ensure product safety.
A unique feature of the KS2 is its pierceable shell. It incorporates a series of radiating perforated leaves that open when the bottle is installed, but remain attached to the cap and are removed with the cap when bottles are returned for refilling. This eliminates the potential for cap pieces remaining in the bottle where they can become lodged in refillers’ bottle cleaning equipment and cause work stoppages or delays. They also tend to reclose when the bottle is removed from the base, reducing the potential for spillage of any water remaining in the bottle.
尽管大多数现有瓶封闭件包含一个刚性泡沫衬垫,以将封闭件密封到瓶子上,但KS2采用流入衬垫,其在模制后注入。该柔性衬里符合可能通过重复使用产生的瓶颈中的任何不规则性,确保甚至完全密封即使是不平坦的表面。
The closure itself, molded of a proprietary blend of resins, is more flexible and resistant to cracking than existing closures. This makes cracking of closures and subsequent leaking much less likely during shipping, handling, and installation of bottles. The KS2 also incorporates a tamper-evident band that assures users that the water has not been opened prior to delivery.
A pull-tab molded into the closure skirt makes removal easier and ensures complete removal. This benefits bottle fillers by making removal prior to cleaning and refilling more efficient.
