Aptar Closures’ new Future Disc Top Supports Beauty Packaging Demands for Recyclability, E-Commerce, and Consumer Convenience

As a global leader in the development of value-added dispensing closure solutions, Aptar Closures continues to deliver on its commitment to design for recyclability while providing convenience and safety to end-consumers. One of the most recent introductions to the market is Future Disc Top, a fully recyclable* closure that was also made to withstand the rough e-commerce journey to provide peace of mind to brands and consumers.

Ideal for the beauty and personal care categories, Future Disc Top stands out on several fronts. Made entirely from polyethylene (PE), which is one of the most commonly recycled packaging materials in the world today, it allows brand owners to deliver more recyclable packaging for a wide range of products. This is the first of its kind in the market, helping to solve the problem of mixed-material packaging, where only the container itself can be recycled. To ensure full recyclability, Future Disc Top should be paired with a suitable PE or PET bottle. Notably, a version made from post-consumer recycled (PCR) content is also available, further demonstrating Aptar Closures’ commitment to providing strong solutions aligned to circular economy principles, and to helping brands deliver on their sustainability promises.

In addition to its more sustainable design, Future Disc Top was made to deliver the quality, safety, and aesthetics desired by brand owners. With numerous color variations to choose from, the new closure has been designed to suit a variety of brand looks, while the integrity of the construction guarantees a strong, smooth, and durable closure and locking mechanism.
