Michelle MachenMauser Shorts, International Packaging

As customer demand for high-quality, automation-ready closure systems continues to grow, Mauser Packaging Solutions is proud to introduce the ProTect plug and seal cap, an innovative all-plastic closure designed for plastic drums. The new ProTect plug design has been successfully installed on PE drums and will be rolled out in phases across key regions.

Key Features:

  • Tamper-evident seal protects against contamination, pilferage, or substitution of contents
  • Seal cap fixated inside the plug instead of the bung, enabling seamless application
  • Improved application in both automated and manual filling lines
  • Fully compatible with existing tooling and classic seal caps
  • Ergonomically designed for easy removal by hand
  • All plastic design supports recyclability
  • Printable surface area for branding
