When it comes to the proper handling of a product, a well-designed closure plays a key role in preserving the integrity of products. Essential for a diverse range of industries, including food and beverages, wine & spirits, pharmaceuticals, home care, industrial sectors, and more, closures must be manufactured with utmost precision and care. Improper closures can lead to product spoilage, leakage during transit and storage, and compromised product quality and integrity. A significant risk of a negative consumer product experience can lead to long-term damage to customers’ brand image.
BERICAP, a leading global supplier of plastic and aluminum closures, stands out as a prominent industry partner. Operating with 30 production plants across 25 countries, it serves clients in over 100 countries. Renowned for its expertise and extensive service support, BERICAP is a dedicated pioneer in the closures industry.

The company’s exceptional manufacturing capabilities are reflected in its ISO 9001 certification and GFSI recognition. BERICAP follows the best manufacturing practices and consistently seeks improvements to ensure top-quality products and services for its clients.
“We guide our customers through every step of the closure process from the initial definition of the product requirements to a hazard-free application process on our customers’ filling lines. Our leak-proof designs ensure secure transport and storage, protect against counterfeiting, and provide a smooth, easy-to-use experience that strengthens our customers’ brand image. With our in-house R&D capabilities, we continually improve our closure solutions using injection molds manufactured in our in-house mold factory,” shares Rajesh Pantsachiv, GM, BERICAP India.
Focus on Sustainability
BERICAP also focuses on minimizing waste and contributing to sustainability. To reduce the material being used, the company designs lightweight closure solutions and dispensers.
Supporting the circular economy in plastic packaging, its engineers and designers have already designed closure solutions with regard to optimized recyclability or – if appropriate – consider the usage of post-consumer recycled (PCR) materials. Certified manufacturing processes, state-of-the-art technical equipment, as well as continuous monitoring, reporting, and improvement routines, ensure the company keeps its CO2 emissions at benchmarked low levels.
Growth Strategy
Customer proximity plays a key role for BERICAP as it positively impacts its customer service, logistics flexibility and efficiency, and last but not least, its operational carbon footprint. With global exposure, BERICAP is dynamically expanding with new production facilities in Africa, South America, and Southeast Asia. Recently, the company opened plants in Nairobi and Ho Chi Minh City and acquired facilities in Lima and Durban.
