United Caps, an international manufacturer of caps and closures, will unveil its Fit for a King tethered closures at drinktec, 12 to 16 September at Messe München, Germany. United Caps will be located on Stand C5.403 at the show. United Caps’ Fit for a King tethered closures are reportedly designed to fully comply with the European directive on single-use plastics, scheduled to go into effect in July 2024.

“Our Fit for a King tethered closure solutions were developed in collaboration with a consortium of segment leaders in the packaging industry to ensure these closures are Born Ready and that they will have minimal impact on production lines,” said CEO Benoit Henckes. “I strongly advise brands, especially those looking for bespoke solutions, to get in touch and/or visit our stand at drinktec to discuss our range that’s Fit for a King to ensure that they are able to stay in the market as the European Directive on single-use plastics comes into effect.”

United Caps offers two closure types in its tethered closure Fit for a King line: The Crown Jewel premium molded solution and the outstanding No Drama Queens slitted solution. Both are available in a variety of sizes and colors to meet the needs of a wide range of brands and product types, including still drinks, juices, carbonated drinks and dairy solutions. Versions of these closures manufactured with conventional materials will be shown, along with versions of the same closures made from ISCC+ certified materials that perform with the exact same characteristics as traditional closures, giving brands the ultimate flexibility.
