US-based packaging tech company Origin Materials is advancing the production of its recyclable polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) caps with the shipment of these caps for commercial qualification.<\/p>\n

The company has produced caps with new features requested by customers at a partner\u2019s facility in Germany.<\/p>\n

Origin Materials noted that its new caps, comprising rPET, have been designed to be compatible with the PCO 1881 standard, a common design for plastic beverage bottlenecks and caps.<\/p>\n

These enhancements come after a successful factory acceptance test of the system in September this year.<\/p>\n

The proprietary system, known formally as the Origin CapFormer System, is set to be shipped to Reed City, Michigan, US, for installation.<\/p>\n

With this move, Origin Materials is preparing for further cap production, which is expected to commence in the first quarter (Q1) of 2025.<\/p>\n
