Silgan Closures is proud to announce the launch of our new Aseptic Advantage webpage—now live at silgancls.com/silgans-aseptic-advantage. This new digital resource hub was created to support, educate, and connect the aseptic packaging community, from OEMs and fillers to packaging engineers and brand owners.
Why Now?
As more brands turn to shelf-stable, preservative-free products across categories like dairy, plant-based beverages, and functional drinks, aseptic processing is becoming the standard. But navigating it isn’t always easy—and that’s where Silgan comes in.
We’re not just launching a webpage. We’re launching a platform built on education, technical insight, and long-term partnership.
“This platform is a tool used to educate and showcase the all-encompassing knowledge that Silgan brings to the table,” said Alec Hollen, Packaging Engineer at Silgan Closures. “It reflects our extensive aseptic experience and our ability to support brands and OEMs with hands-on solutions.”
What You’ll Find on the Aseptic Advantage Hub
Resources for OEM Integration
We work hand-in-hand with leading aseptic fillers and equipment manufacturers. This section offers insights on how Silgan closures integrate with major OEM technologies, including compatibility testing, performance validation, and real-world troubleshooting support.
“Having an engineering team with extensive knowledge of how to be successful in an aseptic environment—coupled with our ability to quickly make modifications to ensure success—gives us a real advantage,” said Jeremy Yocca, Package Commercialization Manager.
Sustainability & Lightweighting Innovation
Sustainability is a core priority. From lightweight closures to linerless designs and recyclable materials, Silgan is helping reduce material usage without compromising performance.
“Even removing a liner has a huge sustainability impact,” Yocca explained. “We’ve made these closures as light as possible to maximize performance while minimizing our carbon footprint.”
Aseptic-Ready Closure Portfolio
From fitments to 43mm screw caps, our closure range is engineered for high-speed, aseptic filling lines. Every product features advanced sealing, tamper evidence, and seamless OEM integration.
Serving Multiple Beverage Categories
Silgan’s closures are designed to perform across a wide range of sensitive applications:
- Dairy & plant-based beverages
- Juices & teas
- Isotonics & functional drinks
- Coconut water & cold brew coffee
Food safety, barrier protection, and aseptic integrity are always top priorities.
Support & Sample Requests
Through a simple contact form, users can easily request product samples, dimensional guides, or connect with our technical experts directly.
What’s Coming Next
This is just the beginning.
Silgan plans to continue expanding the Aseptic Advantage platform with even more resources. Upcoming topics will include:
- One-piece vs. two-piece closure performance
- Extrusion energy insights for polypropylene (PP) vs. high-density polyethylene (HDPE)
- Environmental tradeoffs for brand owners to consider
“We want to not only support, but educate our customers on why our closure solutions are the best fit for their aseptic products,” said Hollen.
“Our history in aseptic, coupled with stellar technical support, sets us apart,” Yocca added. “We don’t just offer products—we adapt quickly, solve compatibility challenges, and serve as a partner in success.”
