Aluminium Foil Lids
(Pre-cut)

Pre-Cut Aluminium Foil Lids are precisely shaped and sized lids cut from a large roll of aluminium foil. These lids provide a secure, airtight seal for a variety of food and beverage containers, ensuring freshness and preventing leaks during storage and transport. Ideal for packaging solutions in the food industry, pre-cut aluminium lids are commonly used for products like yogurt cups, sauces, ready-to-eat meals, and food & beverage deliveries.

Why Aluminium?

Conducts heat quickly

Aluminium conducts heat extremely well, seals are achieved within 2-5 seconds of contact and at a lower temperature (compared to paper and plastic)

Enhanced protection

Excellent barrier properties against moisture and light, resulting in better food quality

Sealing Versatility

Aluminium can be suitably coated/laminated to seal on Coated/Laminated Paper & Plastic

Why Pre-cut?

Flexibility

Flexibility in sizes is possible with pre-cut lids, allowing clients to seal large food tubs (1500 ml) as well as sauce cups (40 to 50ml) on a single machine

Clear Messaging

Branding on pre-cut lids stands out clearly and can be tweaked for different sizes

Visually Attractive

Pre-cut lids have smooth boundaries as compared to the jagged edges on most roll- form sealers

Zero Downtime

Plastic rolls take time to change, which is a pain point in a delivery setup where time is the most valuable commodity
