Ribbed Cap Ribbed Caps are the basic closure in the packaging business. The Ribbed Cap is a threaded closure with an uninterrupted spiral mechanism. This provides the user the ability to easily seal and reseal the container. The ribbed sided design provides easy gripping for the user to twist on and off. This cap has a flat matte top, which easily allows for labeling. At Bottle Solutions™ we can help you apply your important message on your caps. Ribbed Child Resistant Cap The Ribbed Child Resistant Cap has all of the same basic characteristics as the standard ribbed cap except for the requirement to press and turn the closure in one continuous motion to open. Resealing the container requires one continuous turning motion as does the standard ribbed cap. In addition the top has raised letters with opening instructions; therefore the top of these caps cannot be printed or decorated. In the packaging industry you may see these referred to as CR caps. Deep Skirted Ribbed Cap Deep Skirted Ribbed Caps have the same basic features as the standard ribbed cap, however they are taller. This allows for the cap to fit properly on select longer neck containers. This cap has a flat matte top, which easily allows for labeling. At Bottle Solutions™ we can help you apply your important message on your caps. Dispensing Cap Dispensing Caps come in a variety of different configurations. These come in a Disc Top, Flip Spout, and Flip Top design. • Disc Top Caps feature a small orifice that, once exposed by applying pressure on one side of the cap top allows liquid to be dispensed. These are often used in the health and beauty aids business for shampoos, conditioners and other similar products. However, there are many other applications for the Disc Top cap for any type of material that needs to be dispensed from a container. • Flip Spout Caps are one of the oldest designs in dispensing caps. This closure has a spout that flips up from an indentation in the cap and then fits back in the same indentation when not in use. This type of closure will work with thinner types of liquids and more viscous materials. It is important to select the appropriate opening/orifice in the spout. • Flip Top Caps feature a top with a hinge, that when opened, reveals an opening/orifice in the center of the cap. These often provide a more economical dispensing top option. Depending on the opening size these can be used for both thin and thicker liquids. Dome Shaped Cap The Dome Shaped Cap is a standard screw on cap with continuous thread, however with a dome shaped top. Usually, these caps come with smooth, rather than ribbed, walls. These are usually found on jars rather than bottles and most often used in the cosmetics industry. You will find face creams and similar highly viscous products in containers with domed tops. Dropper Cap Dropper caps are recognized by their glass or plastic tube and rubber tops. These are screwed onto glass or plastic bottles for dispensing of thin liquids. They are often used where a few, controlled number of drops are required. Because of this they typically fit only on smaller size bottles. Fine Mist Sprayers When the need exists for a thin, low viscosity liquid to be misted, the Fine Mist Sprayers are the solution. These can fit on various size bottles by selecting the correct “dip tube” length. These sprayers come with a protective cap. The Fine Mist Sprayers are often used to replace aerosol containers. At Bottle Solutions™ we stock the most popular colors, however, if you need a special color let us know and we can often find exactly what you need. Lug Caps Lug caps are made of metal and usually come in a gold color. They are most often used on glass hexagon jars or round jelly type jars.

Pumps Pumps work in a variety of different applications, from very large to very small containers. You can find pumps on hand lotion bottles up to gallon size ketchup and mustard jars.

Pumps are mainly designed for higher viscosity liquids and do not work well, or at all, with thinner liquids. Pumps can be used on plastic, glass and metal containers. Phenolic Cap Phenolic Caps are the premier closure in the packaging business. The Phenolic Cap is a threaded closure with an uninterrupted spiral mechanism.

The main benefit of Phenolic Caps is their durability and long life. As a result they are a more premium priced product. Spice Cap Spice Caps are a specialized product designed to fit spice bottles. They come in Plain, “Sift and Spoon,” and “Pour and Spoon” designs. The Plain will often use a “Sifter Fitment” that attaches to the container, before the cap is applied. The Sift and Spoon has both a sifter and an opening for larger volume built into the cap. The Pour and Spoon has a smaller dispensing opening and a larger opening, which allows the spice product to be spooned out. All of these come in a variety of colors for easy product identification.
