Is the cap opening large enough? Our packaging often has different cap openings. Do you need a specific filling opening?

Are the seals in the caps resistant to your product? This must be considered to avoid leaking caps.

What is the necessary torque to be used for the caps? The tightening torque is always stated on the technical data sheets of our packaging. If it’s not clear, feel free to ask us.
Delivery of your product

The standard delivery method is always stated on the quotation. If you would like to have another delivery method, for example Max. 1.2M high, this can always be requested. However, this does have an impact on freight costs and also results in a handling cost.

The 5 pallet spaces are also valid in combination with the delivery of other packaging, but not for different delivery addresses.

Pallets can be exchanged or conserved. This will always be noted on the shipping bill, these will be credited when exchanging pallets.
