Screw Caps & Lids
Your packaging shouldnât be the thing that lets down the product you created to earn customersâ trust. With the right screw cap or lid, your product arrives intact, opens easily, and reseals reliably every single time.
With over 50 years of experience in the packaging industry, Ashland Container stocks and sources a wide range of screw caps and lid solutions designed for a secure fit, reliable sealing performance, and consistent results throughout a productâs lifecycle.
Screw Cap Materials Available at Ashland Container
The material your screw cap is made from directly impacts its chemical compatibility, seal quality, and shelf life. To ensure your satisfaction, Ashland Container is proud to offer the most widely trusted materials in the packaging industry:
Polypropylene (PP)
Polypropylene delivers excellent chemical resistance, a rigid structure that maintains its thread geometry under repeated use, and broad compatibility with food, personal care, and household products. PP caps are available in virtually any color and finish.
Polyethylene (HDPE & LDPE)
HDPE delivers strong impact resistance and a durable seal, making it a reliable choice for containers in the industrial, automotive, and chemical industries. LDPE is softer and more flexible, ideal for squeeze bottles where the cap needs to conform to the finish and reseal easily.
Aluminum
Widely used in the food, beverage, and pharmaceutical industries, aluminum caps are available as standard continuous-thread closures or as ROPP (Roll-On Pilfer-Proof) styles applied by capping equipment for enhanced tamper evidence.
Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) Resin
These closures meet the same performance standards as virgin-resin caps while significantly reducing your productâs environmental footprint. This is especially important for brands with sustainability commitments.
Lined Caps
Many screw caps are paired with an internal liner to create a hermetic seal. ĐĄaps with foam liners (for cushioning and chemical compatibility), induction heat seal (IHS) liners (for tamper evidence and freshness), and pressure-sensitive liners, each suited to different products and regulatory requirements.
Types of Screw Caps & Lids Available
The right closure style depends on your bottle finish, your product, your industry, and how your customer opens and re-seals the container. Ashland Container carries the full spectrum of screw cap styles:
