Application guide

Car care bottle capping machines

Car care products often use trigger sprayers, pumps and screw caps across several bottle formats. A good capping specification should consider bottle stability, closure type and changeover frequency.

Trigger sprayers and dip tubes

Trigger closures need more handling control than simple screw caps. Dip tubes can interfere with cap placement if the bottle and cap presentation are not managed properly.

Multi-SKU production

Car care brands often run several fragrances, bottle sizes and closures. Changeover requirements should be part of the capping machine brief.

Route selection

Lower-volume production may suit semi-automatic capping, while sustained output may justify trigger capping and cap feeding support.
