Metal caps and closures are devices which are used to seal the top opening of a bottle, jar, can, etc. Metal caps and closure is a functional aspect of packaging which deals with protection and preservation of product within the container and prevents them from leakage. Metal caps and closure are made up of a wide variety of fabricated material such as stainless steel, aluminum, and tin plated steel. The resultant metal caps and closures give rigid properties which help them to provide optimum sealing benefits to different forms depending upon their need for usage. Moreover, metal caps and closure are manufactured depending upon their application which can differ its sizes and types. Some of the types of metal caps and closures include crown cork, ring pull caps, continuous thread or roll on closure and lug/twist metal caps. The metal caps and closures include backing paper made with several lining materials such as foamed polyethylene, pressure-sensitive lines, and many others to prevent the contact between the content and the metal caps and closure.
