To better protect its customers' brands and products, Rieke, a well-known TriMas Packaging company, has introduced the IMF-5 In-Mold FLEXSPOUT tamper-evident closure for plastic pails. This closure is molded directly into the pail lid during the injection molding process.
According to the company, the closure and lid are permanently bonded, making it impossible to manipulate or break without detection. This maximum protection for the manufacturer's brand and product is ensured. To guarantee safe product delivery, the IMF-5 also has an integrated tamper-evident pull ring and a premium leak-resistant design.
While product security was the main consideration in the design of the IMF-5 FLEXSPOUT, customer functionality is also a significant advantage. With its retractable pull-out spout and large pour orifice for controlled directional dispensing, the IMF-5 is ideal for a variety of industrial uses, including adhesives, paints and coatings, automotive oils and lubricants, and cleaning agents.
Furthermore, a unique combination of materials used in the next-generation closure allows for increased flexibility and cold-weather suitability. The IMF-5's low-profile design makes it easy to stack and install robotically, resulting in processing that is both economical and efficient. The IMF-5's all-plastic, polyethylene construction makes recycling the closure simple, which makes it a more environmentally friendly option than spouts made of various materials.
Along with easy handling and sustainable waste management, this next-generation In-Mold FLEXSPOUT ensures safety, security, and outstanding product and brand protection. As a comprehensive and incredibly powerful solution, the IMF-5 aids clients of the company in their battle against counterfeiting.
