Bend, Don’t Break!
Velocity Chrome was launched in 2016 to find a solution for applying a metal finish to plastic hinged closures for a cosmetic product. Key client requirements included:
- Flexibility and adhesion of the coating on the hinge, without flaking.
- Coating durability that withstands high-speed capping and filling.
- Meets or exceeds strict testing requirements for moisture and humidity resistance.
- Parts must be produced at a rate of two per second, to meet customer demand.
Success could only be accomplished using Velocity Chrome’s UV-curable coating technology!
High Speed, High Volume,
High Quality!
A beverage client required an improvement to its existing metallized closures. Quality requirements that Velocity Chrome solved:
- Consistent and uniform deep copper color.
- Passed freezer test without coating adhesion loss.
- Increased durability to withstand bowl-feeding and high-speed capping.
- Coating that will not flake when tamper-evident ring is separated from upper screw portion of cap.
- Environmentally friendly – low or zero VOC coatings for compliant US manufacturing.
