Caps & Collars

What are Fragrance Caps & Collars?

A perfume cap is the closing component that seals a fragrance bottle; a collar is the ring that dresses the neck where the pump meets the glass. Together they protect the atomizer mechanism, prevent leakage, and carry the metallic or branded finish that defines a perfume's presentation. The VEQA range covers cap designs with threaded 20/410-28/415 fitments, finished with metallic surface treatments.

Formulation Compatibility & Applications

• Compatible Formulations: Closure hardware for alcohol-based fragrance; caps/collars are selected to the bottle neck, pump collar and overall fragrance design language.
• Target Packaging Use Cases: Perfume bottle finishing, atomizer and fragrance pump protection, luxury and mid-market fragrance packaging, refillable fragrance presentations and Middle East market fragrance lines.

Engineering Materials & Sustainable Options

• Verified Materials: Cap/collar base materials are confirmed at project level; metallic surfaces are achieved via electroplating, anodizing or spray finish. Aluminum and PP are common in the manufacturing group's material system.
• Eco-Friendly & PCR Solutions: Anodized aluminum and PP surfaces support lightweight closure construction; PCR PP is confirmable project-by-project. Aluminum collars enable metallic presentation without heavy metal content in coatings - recyclability claims require independent verification.

Customization & Secondary Processing

Endless metallic finishes via electroplating and anodizing; spraying/coating for matte or soft-touch; hot stamping for logos; multi-tone cap-and-collar combinations. Cap profile, collar height and thread finish are customizable. Validate with customization capabilities and quality-control testing.

Procurement FAQ

Q1: What fitment sizes are available for caps and collars?

A1: The catalog covers 20/410, 20/415, 24/410, 24/415, 28/410 and 28/415 threaded variants. Caps are specified to the pump collar and bottle neck.

Q2: How is cap sealing and metal finish validated?

A2: Torque testing confirms fit and retention; leakage testing verifies seal integrity; adhesion and color-difference tests validate metal finishes and surface treatments; drop testing covers transit. All are within the 12-category laboratory testing scope.

Q3: What are sampling and lead times for custom caps/collars?

A3: SLA 3D printing supports prototype caps; tooling is developed in-house. Electroplating and finishing lines are in-house. MOQ and lead time are quoted against size, finish and decoration - confirmed per project.
