What we can say,  you can not compare oranges and apples. But one big difference to most of the competitors is the flexibility of filling the caps.
The Incap closure can be filled easily at your facility without doing extra foiling or sealing!

Incap is one of the pioneers who developed a serial production-ready (industrialized)  dispensing closure and which is approved by the market (proof of concept)

We think that the more dosing caps solutions are on the market, the more and faster the market is growing.

Win-Win for everybody!

But please find out how revolutionary and unique our Incap Dosing Closures are by comparing to the competitors:

The Incap patented Dispensing Closure Technology was developed to keep vitamins, liquid-sensitive and other essential ingredients protected and separated from water until it’s time to drink. This breakthrough dispensing closure is hermetic (airtight) sealed, ensuring freshness and delivering maximum vitamin potency.

The driving force behind the Incap dispensing closure technology is the fact that vitamins deteriorate in water, causing premixed vitamin drinks to lose their strength over time. The supplemental information printed on most premixed vitamin drinks is based on the ingredients at the time of bottling, not the time of consumption.

“Consumers need to know that after just 60 days on a shelf, premixed drinks can have only 40 to 60 percent of their vitamins remaining.

Scientific studies have clearly demonstrated that vitamins are not stable in beverage products and that the longer they stay in contact with liquid, the weaker they become. Such sensitive substances begin to degrade and lose potency almost immediately when mixed with the liquid at the time of packaging. In addition, shelf life and exposure to light promote further loss of their potency creating a rapid decrease in their original value.

This new and exciting technology is the biggest breakthrough in packaging dispensing closure mechanisms and will revolutionize what can be delivered as a product in the future.

For example the next generation of health and wellness beverages that will modernize the way the industry manufactures nutritional beverage supplements throughout the world in PET containers by storing time-and-liquid-sensitive vitamin supplements that can now be held in a dry state avoiding contact with the beverage until it is activated; as it now makes it possible to release vitamins into the beverage allowing for fun user experience and the freshest, most powerful way possible for consumers to enjoy immune-boosting supplements in an effervescent beverage which will be the future of beverages.

As the Incap is activated by twisting and pushing down the cap, the consumer can actually see the ingredients dispensing into the product stored in the main container. This innovative, low-cost functional device brings new solutions and differentiation in the way of packaging. It can be used in many different applications including Beverages, Food, Personal Care, Pharmaceutical, and Chemical. Now through this technological innovation, many new products will be born or existing ones will be reinvented.

It’s intuitive and easy to use — simply twist and push down, and shake to freshly infuse vitamins and nutrients into the water.

The Active involvement of your customer

The Incap infusion cap technology is an easy unlock-and-push activation closure that offers simplicity for on-the-go consumers. The cap holds the liquid vitamins or powder, with an airtight foil barrier that requires less plastic than similar caps, resulting in further cost reductions throughout the production cycle.

The consumers decide when they’re ready to hydrate and simply twist&push the top to release fresh, undiluted ingredients into their beverage.

The patented packaging system handles room temperature storage and offers a longer shelf life for the sensitive ingredients

The cap makes hydration easy for everyone with the added benefit of improved contents and potency during vitamin delivery.

Incap is a chance to get ahead in the tough competition.

The effect of the active involvement of your customer adding fresh ingredients is a true advantage.

The Incaps do provide a hermetic chamber to protect ingredients
The Incaps are functional and intuitive to activate: Twist and Push
The formula chamber is protected by a primary and secondary seal that is unique to INCAP

We Aim to create the best experience for you and our customers, we can solve problems, we are innovative, we and our partners are known as the experts in the field of dispensing closures and last but not least, the culture and customer approach of our Incap Team and Partners.

• Plant-based nutrients decay when kept in water.
That’s why we seal both nutrients and the tasty stuff in the cap for you to release & enjoy.
• The Incap keeps its Good stuff completely sealed in a unique dispensing cap. So that when released the nutrients and taste are as fresh as ever. Release & enjoy.
• Activate your power by twisting and pushing down the cap. No risk for degeneration. Reap your power freshly. Activate nutrients only when necessary. Healthy – Fresh – Natural – Tasty
• The Cap will protect and keep its freshness of the nutrients under a sealed cap. Nutrients are stored safe from the external factors that can breakdown them.
• This unique closure contains nutrients that retain their strength and nutritional value up to the moment of mixing.
• Minerals and nutrients can lose their effect after prolonged contact with water. The INCAP preserves the nutrients in an oxygen-free and moisture-free space, and only mixes them with water or another liquid at the consumer’s initiative. Preservatives or other additives to ensure longer shelf life is unnecessary.
• Many nutraceuticals have a limited lifespan in an aqueous solution. The cap offers the perfect solution to prevent this degradation from occurring.
• Scientific studies have shown that natural ingredients, vitamins, and other time-sensitive supplements, which make drinks “functional”, tend to lose their efficacy when they come into contact with the base liquid, light, and oxygen. The cap offers the perfect solution to prevent this degradation from occurring.
• The longer the ingredients are in contact with the base liquid, the weaker they become.
• The Cap separates the functional ingredients from the base liquid and thus maintains their potency and power until the moment of consumption.
• It is not just a normal Cap, its a Smarter way to enjoy functional drinks.
• Go functional, Get InCap
• Makes your drink functional
• The reservoir cap keeps vitamins fresh.
• Functional ingredients stay protected from air and moisture and with a single Twist and push, the consumer can activate the desired effect.
• By keeping the vitamins, anti-oxidants, and flavors locked in an airtight cavity, Incap ensures that they stay fresher for longer, unaffected by water and light. Simply twist and pop down the cap to break the seal and release the ingredients into the water. A quick shake of the bottle and you’re ready to enjoy a tastier, more potent vitamin drink.
• The patented Incap solution is an ingenious technical solution to an everyday nutritional problem
  Incap has developed a unique closure that keeps active ingredients isolated and in the peak of potency until the very moment the consumer is ready to drink or use the product.
• As functional beverages boost innovation, Incap offers with its dosing caps a packaging solution to meet all the evolving needs of the modern beverage consumer: Healthy, functional, tasty, and a convenient innovative drinking format.

The best way to be sure is to test the Incaps on your wanted bottles. Contact us for sample inquiries or send us samples of your packaging, so we can accompany you in the testing process.

We do have already produced colors from different projects and customers but of course, any other color would be available. If you do have a different color request, please send us all the possible information you have like RAL, Pantone, or other color codes.

Standard “color” is a semi-white transparent: This color occurs with the base PP material. Any other colors are a mixture of colorized PP material together with the base PP material used in our caps. Of course, all the colors do keep the Food & Beverage requirements are tested under these requirements with the standard migration tests.

Please see here the existing colors we use:

Standard color is a semi-white-transparent Color, other colors are typically made to order, however,
Incap does keep some stock closures in limited colors such as yellow, red, and green.

Yes, of course, see the range of color here on our homepage we are currently using for our customers. But generally, any other color can be chosen. Please contact us for more information.

No, it is a classical closure once it’s activated. You have to unscrew the cap, but of course, you can close it again. Let us know if you are interested in the drink trough technology as we are now developing a Sportscap.

Yes. Incap closures, made with PP Borealis, are 100% recyclable.

Incap encourages consumers to replace the cap on the bottle prior to recycling. Recycling of closures often occurs as a result of the bottle recycling process, which is why it is important to make sure the closures are placed back on the bottles prior to recycling.

We have been dealing with bio-polymers and sustainability for years. Unfortunately, they have not kept what they promised and we have not been able to implement any projects yet.

Most biodegradable materials, on closer inspection or during their manufacture, represent an additional burden on the environment.

• The properties are usually insufficient
• Biodegradable sounds good, but the process starts immediately after production. This reduces the longevity or usability enormously
• Last but not least the higher price makes the economic use difficult

But time changes a lot and developments continue. In any case, we stay tuned, we are in constant contact with suppliers and are testing new materials.

Nevertheless, our caps are made out of PP Borealis which is 100% recyclable!

Yes. The exterior appearance of the Incap can be customized on the top surface, subject to technical limitations and minimum sales volume.

The Incaps are originally delivered in two parts: The Dome and the Base part. The Dome part has to be filled and then closed with the Base. So, basically, yes, you can fill the cap by yourself, or any local co-packer / -filler can fill the cap with minor adaptions to his filling line.

Incap Services GmbH can fill you the already sealed Incaps for you or your local co-packer / -filler. Do not hesitate to contact us for more information regarding filling.

Our partner Filltec can make you semi-automatic filling lines or fully automatic filling lines, with an hourly output of 900 to 3’000 caps. For more information on the equipment and quotes, please contact us.

The caps, which are packed in plastic bags in cardboard boxes, are sterile once the come out of the injecting molding machine and foiling process.
However, we recommend strongly to sterilize the caps before filling and capping.
This can be done by using vapourised H2O2 (Hydrogen Peroxide), Radiation, or/and UVC Light.

Yes, the Incaps are completely Airtight meaning the ingredients are hermetically sealed.

The Incap seal protects the vitamin powder or any ingredients in the closure,  maintaining freshness and delivering maximum vitamin potency.

We can offer a blending and filling service trough Incap Services.

We do have 3 formulations provided by our partner Athenion:

Formulation 1

Curcumin Booster Color: yellow Taste: tropical fruit
This product is designed to protect the cardiovascular system since curcumin is known to lower cholesterol and blood sugar as well as acting as a powerful modulator of inflammation. Since it also enhances liver function and fat metabolism it is an ideal “everyday” product. Although it was is not specifically designed for sports recovery, it is the ideal formulation for that since active sport forces minor inflammation as well as the “production” of free radicals in the body. Curcumin has a high antioxidant power which eliminates free radicals.

Formulation 2

Green Tea Booster Color: light mint Taste: berry/tropical
This product enhances mental functions and helps to focus. This effect is enhanced by better blood circulation and oxygen uptake. There are many scientific studies around that prove this effect of the green tea polyphenols. Since brain health (e.g. Alzheimer and Parkinson disease) is closely related to long-lasting minor inflammations in the brain, the anti-inflammatory power of green tea is the best long term brain protection.

Formulation 3

Guarana Booster Color: red Taste red berry (contains caffeine)
This product is primarily designed to enhance day by day energy and endurance. As a side effect, it strengthens the cardio-vascular system due to
the strong anti-oxidant effects and helps the body with stress resistance.
