Selecting the most suitable capsule for your brand is key to positioning it correctly. Offering a range of material choices
to suit a brands messaging, you can choose the right material from PVC, polylaminate and tin.
We supply various sizes, colours and a range of design options to elevate your product.
POLYLAMINATE
A highly versatile closure solution, polylaminate capsules are constructed from a multi-layered combination of aluminium and polyethylene, delivering an optimal balance between performance, aesthetics, and cost-efficiency.
This laminated structure combines the formability and premium finish of aluminium with the flexibility and resilience of polyethylene. The result is a capsule that offers excellent conformity to the bottle neck, consistent shrink behaviour during application, and reliable performance across high-speed bottling lines.
Polylaminate capsules are particularly well-suited to brands seeking a refined, premium appearance while maintaining control over packaging costs. Their lightweight construction and efficient production process also contribute to improved sustainability metrics compared to fully aluminium alternatives.
Recyclability & Sustainability
Polylaminate capsules are classified as a composite material due to the combination of aluminium and polyethylene layers. While this construction delivers key performance benefits, it can present challenges within standard recycling streams, as separation of materials is not always achievable at scale.
That said, the reduced aluminium content compared to traditional tin or aluminium capsules results in a lower overall material weight, contributing to a reduced environmental footprint in production and transport. As recycling infrastructure continues to evolve, polylaminate remains a practical and considered option for brands balancing sustainability ambitions with performance and cost requirements.
From a decoration perspective, the material provides a smooth, consistent surface ideal for a wide range of finishes, including complex printing, embossing, and top disc applications. This ensures strong shelf presence while maintaining production efficiency at scale.
Like all our capsules, the possibilities are simply limited by your imagination. With extensive customisation options available, polylaminate offers a flexible and accessible route to differentiation.
