Pack and closure

Round PET bottle

Round PET bottles suit many standard retail formats, but similar-looking bottles can still need different handling because of stiffness, base, and finish.

Bottle stiffness, base stability, finish drawing, and label format affect conveying and capping for round PET bottles. Under hot-fill conditions, bottle deformation also needs to be observed.

Front, side, finish, and base photos, plus dimensions, material, locating surfaces, and fill dose, confirm loading, positioning, and filling stages.

Closure or seal material and one filled sample further confirm cap-handling and closing actions.
