Our fitments are manufactured using:
We’re equipped to take your fitment concepts from idea to execution. Our fitments engineers work with you to tailor-make your optimal fitment solution. We work with our injection molding experts to design, produce, and test fitment molds starting with rapid prototyping and single-cavity pilot molds all the way to high-cavitation molds for commercial production.
Our products and processes are built to realize a significant reduction in the use of fossil materials and related CO2 footprint while providing a positive consumer experience. To that end, we strive to engineer products that meet one or more of the below tenets to ensure we are all moving forward in our sustainability journey.
Leading-edge sealing technology using induction which enables the use of recyclable PP and PE film structures. Faster cycle times, lower energy requirements, and compact equipment footprint aid in reducing reliance on natural resources.
SIG has developed a line of tethered caps for spouted pouches that comply with European regulations pushing towards single-piece fitment designs. Our tethered cap solutions eliminate loose components that might not be placed into the recycling stream, while offering child-safe designs and improved ergonomics. With these easy-to-reseal fitment solutions, spills and other opportunities to waste products are less likely.
• Patented design offers a reduction in energy
required for manufacturing, assembly, and sealing
• Offers easy, twist-off use for consumers of all ages
• Toynorm compliant
• Dual-purpose tamper evidence also offers
tether for cap
• Ideal for HFFS applications
• Single-piece spout and cap offers integrated tamper evidence
• Flip-top functionality allows single-handed use
• Diamond seal boat offers improved interaction
between film and spout
• Tethered hinge keeps cap from blocking product flow
• Lightweight design reduces reliance on raw materials
Fully compatible with industry standards, these fitments have been engineered with the following tenets in mind:
We design our fitments to be accessible for people of all ages and abilities.
Engineered to use less material, creating less strain on Earth’s resources.
Ready for sealing without needing additional step for tamper evidence.
European regulations around single-piece fitments as well as Toynorm compliance.
Comparable benefits to non-tethered options.
In the 1970’s, SIG developed the aseptic filling machine which enabled the aseptic bag-in-box packaging process. Prior to SIG, the aseptic process had been limited in package type and was most commonly used for dairy products. Aseptic packaging for bulk bag-in-box allowed processors to provide out-of-season products throughout the year, revolutionizing the storage and transportation of processed fruit and vegetable products.
In recent years, we have seen a shift in consumer demands towards healthy beverage options, resulting in the growth of the aseptic drink category. SIG’s advancements in filling equipment and bag-in-box technology provide solutions for retail and institutional establishments who wish to offer coffee, dairy, juice, smoothies, and other functional beverages, while retaining nutritional value.
We pioneered aseptic packaging technology for both bag-in-box and spouted pouches, helping you offer the best-quality product while expanding the potential channels and locations available to you.
Aseptic technology allows you to offer preservativefree, shelf-stable products that stay fresh up to 12 months on the shelf with no refrigeration needed. Aseptic opens your potential for ecommerce, while extended shelf life helps drive higher consumption and use in expanded locations.
The first part of aseptic package technology is a hermetically sealed package. To ensure the package is hermetically sealed, we use a “bubble” pressure test to verify that nothing comes into or out of the package. We follow the FDA Bacteriological Analytical Manual, specifically chapter 22C. To ensure that our package is hermetically sealed and capable of commercial sterility, we perform a micrbiological challenge test with Geobacillus stearothermophilus spores (GS1).
