They looked at how much force is needed to open a still-sealed bottle, for example. The two companies have additionally carried out tests to make sure that the closure system is easy to use by the consumer, also due to the multi-lock system. In the Opening Performance Test, the cap & neck combination was assessed to make sure that any excess pressure that builds up in a half-empty bottle is released during opening while the cap is still attached to the thread, and that no blow-off occurs-this is when the internal pressure is sufficient to force the cap explosively off the thread). In a nutshell: the system passed all the tests.Ī joint development team checked, in particular, to make sure that the threads on the new neck are sufficient to keep the cap in place, and to ensure that there is minimal risk of ‘blow-off’ when the cap is first unscrewed from the bottle (this is obviously more important for carbonated products). The two companies have in recent months been carrying out various validation tests, in the laboratory and on production lines, on the functionality and ease of use of the SUPER 26/22 system. This contrasts with a PCO1881 cap that is 17.0 mm high and weighs 3.8g, almost twice as much-and which takes caps that can be up to 0.6g heavier. A CETIE 26/22 for still water is the same height as the SUPER 26/22 neck, but weighs 1.90 g.Ī special “high” version suitable also for CSD till 4,2 CO2 weights 2.3 g. The new SUPER 26/22 system is distinguished by a very low height and weight-the neck is just 12.0 mm high in its standard version and weighs just 1.86 grams (1.82 g in a version with SACMI’s Multi-Lock system, which breaks all the links on the security ring as soon as the user begins to unscrew the cap). The development was aimed at bottles up to 3.5vol of CO2 and 1,5L in volume, and was intended to be compatible with 26-mm CETIE GME 30.28 necks. Then, they wanted to create a closure system that was as easy as possible to use while still offering the safety and security features of current systems, for example. The first objective was to use the same combination of neck/cap both for still and carbonated water eliminating the time for line changes and therefore saving money. The two companies set themselves various objectives, apart from weight reduction. stands for Sustainable, Unique, Productive, Easy, and Reliable. Their target is a new combination of PET preforms and closures that provides advantages for processors and end-users alike. project, which aims to deliver new combinations of lightweight screw caps and PET bottle necks for the latest generation of bottles for still and sparkling waters. The two companies have been working together since 2012 on the S.U.P.E.R. Hmmm.Collaboration between SIPA and Italian cap & closure production technology specialist SACMI is yielding positive results. I thought all of the preforms had the same tube opening/threads. Manufacturer's own literature here confirms.

Statement from one site: It comes complete with 2 size caps for standard water bottles (28mm & 30mm). the caps are two different sizes: 28mm and 30mm. Notice, if you track down the Cap2Go at handful of places where sold separately, the package/card with two on a carabiner. PET tube of FDA & SGS Approved ingredients.

Available in wide range of colors sizes: Small 20ml/0.5 oz Medium/Large 60ml/1.5 oz.

The walls of the tubes feel and look the same.

The opening/threads are identical on the two. Capacity? Filled small tube three times to the top opening with water, poured into kitchen measuring cup. Nothing from him (and I check periodically). I bought a lot of five small Keep2Go tubes with the 'good' caps from eB*y seller four months ago.
