 Why Aluminium Foil
Modern laminated aluminium foils are designed specifically for use with a capping press and they can be pre-printed with an all-over colour, a brand logo or embossed with a logo at the point of cap making.
Because the foil cap is made as a 3-dimensional object, it will fit perfectly over the container without any distortion and gives a high quality finish that is far superior to a flat diaphragm that is crimped to shape after application.
Aluminium capping presses are built to the exact specifications required for perfect capping on a specific container.
