The demand for health-conscious products continues to rise, with the health and functional beverage market leading as the fastest-growing segment.
However, a common challenge in this market is maintaining the potency of vitamins and nutraceuticals, which often degrade when pre-mixed with liquids and exposed to oxygen.
INCAP offers a practical solution to this issue. Our patented dosing cap stores a precise dose of ingredients in an hermetically-sealed chamber that protects ingredients from moisture and oxygen.
The formula is released and mixed with water only at the time of consumption, helping to preserve the freshness and efficacy of the active ingredients.
INCAP’s research and development, led by mechanical engineer Frank Marsch who has pioneered developments in the packaging industry for more than 30 years, has allowed INCAP to leverages the best of manufacturing practices in a simple solution.
INCAP’s design goes beyond industry best quality and aesthetics, it considers all downstream processes – from manufacturing and filling – right to your customer’s hand as they enjoy the full fresh effect and taste of your finished product.
The 28mm INCAP is designed for functional beverages where dry powder or liquid concentrate is stored separately from the beverage and released only when the consumer activates the cap.
The system is available in both standard and tethered versions.
Size: 28mm, PCO 1810
Nominal chamber volume: approx. 7ml
Powder filling: Actual powder fill weight depends on the formulation, bulk density and flow characteristics and must be validated through filling tests.
Applications: Suitable for dry powders and compatible liquid concentrates used in functional beverages, nutritional supplements and similar applications.
Shelf life: Depends on the formulation, filling process and storage conditions.
Bottle compatibility: Designed for PET bottles with PCO 1810 neck finish.
Available versions: Standard and tethered INCAP.
Manufacturing: Commercially available. Lead time depends on configuration, quantity and production schedule.
Processing: Designed primarily for cold-fill, non-carbonated beverage applications. Hot-fill or pasteurisation with the assembled INCAP is not supported.
Materials: Food-contact compliant polymer components with an induction-sealed barrier system. Different colours are available subject to production quantities and configuration
The 38mm INCAP is designed for functional beverages requiring a larger capacity, where dry powder or liquid concentrate is stored separately from the beverage and released only when the consumer activates the cap.
A tethered version is currently under development, with market availability targeted for mid-2027.
Size: 38mm, 3-Start PET (PT38-33)
Nominal chamber volume: approx. 15ml
Powder filling: Actual powder fill weight depends on the formulation, bulk density and flow characteristics and must be validated through filling tests.
Applications: Suitable for dry powders and compatible liquid concentrates used in functional beverages, nutritional supplements and similar applications.
Shelf life: Depends on the formulation, filling process and storage conditions.
Bottle compatibility: Designed for PET bottles with compatible 38mm 3-Start neck finish (PT38-33).
Available versions: Standard INCAP available. Tethered version targeted for market introduction mid-2027.
Manufacturing: Commercially available. Lead time depends on configuration, quantity and production schedule.
Processing: Designed primarily for cold-fill, non-carbonated beverage applications. Hot-fill or pasteurisation with the assembled INCAP is not supported.
Materials: Food-contact compliant polymer components with an induction-sealed barrier system. Different colours are available subject to production quantities and configuration.
In Development – Target Market Availability: Mid/End 2027
The 38mm Drink-Through INCAP is the next generation of the INCAP platform, combining the dosing function with a convenient drink-through sports closure.
The tethered flip-top design is being developed for easy on-the-go consumption while keeping the closure attached to the bottle.
Size: 38mm, 3-Start PET (PT38-33)
Nominal chamber volume: approx. 15ml
Powder filling: Actual powder fill weight depends on the formulation, bulk density and flow characteristics and must be validated through filling tests.
Applications: Designed for dry powders and compatible liquid concentrates used in functional, sports, hydration and nutritional beverages.
Bottle compatibility: Designed around the 38mm 3-Start PET platform (PT38-33).
Design: Tethered drink-through / flip-top closure for convenient direct drinking from the bottle.
Availability: Currently under development. Target market introduction is mid/end 2027.
Final specifications: Technical specifications, bottle compatibility, materials and commercial production parameters are subject to completion of development and validation.
INCAP’s patented 2-part design can be customised to suit any color requirements.
