Pical provides a user-friendly solution for edible oils, dressings and sauces

Berry Global has launched a tamper-evident pouring closure for edible oils, dressings and sauces, which combines consumer convenience and functionality with sustainability enhancements that improve its recyclability.

Fully compliant with EU regulations for single-use plastics, the new Pical Pouring Closure – part of Berry’s B Circular portfolio – features a special tamper-evident tab that drops inside the closure when the lid is opened for the first time. This ensures the tab remains with the pack so that all components enter the recycling stream. The snap-on neck finish also means that the bottle does not require an additional sleeve for tamper evidence.

Manufactured in HDPE, the lightweight closure is a one-piece design and of mono-material construction, making it fully recyclable where appropriate collection facilities exist.

The modern-looking, flip-top design incorporates an active hinge with a wide opening angle that allows easy one-handed opening and closing, with the secure closure mechanism providing an audible click to confirm it is fully closed. A venting feature and pouring orifice in the closure ensures smooth product flow and accurate dispensing that minimises glugging, while a cut-off lip provides a clean finish at the end of pouring.

The Pical Pouring Closure is available in two neck sizes (26/21 and 29/21) in a wide choice of colours.

Matthias Hammersen, VP Sales at Berry Global Consumer Packaging International Division, stated, “With our Pical closure, we have addressed consumer demands for both convenience and sustainability. The modern design offers comfortable handling and optimal pouring performance, while its lightweight mono-material construction and retained tamper-evident tab ensure it is easy to recycle.”
