Induction Sealing Machines – FAQs

What is Induction Cap Sealer and How Does It Work?

Induction sealing is an efficient method for sealing glass and plastic containers without having direct contact. The cap containing the foil liner is fastened onto the container.  When the container passes under an induction sealing coil, the coil generates an electromagnetic field and the liner (which is made up of layers like cardboard backing, aluminium foil, and wax) absorbs energy which is electromagnetic. As it cools, a hermetic seal is formed by the foil helping to protect the product from tampering and contamination. Even when the cap is removed, the airtight seal remains intact, ensuring long-lasting protection.

See our Induction Sealers products.

Why is Induction Sealing Important?

Induction cap sealing prevents leaks, maintains product freshness, and provides tamper-evidence.  The product is kept safe throughout transit and storage. Induction seals are important for goods shipped over long distances, protecting against leakage, contamination, and tampering.

Benefits of Induction Seals

  • Prevents contamination: Protects the product from air, moisture, and bacteria.
  • Prevents leaks: Provides secure sealing, even in extreme conditions like low air pressure and heat.
  • Reduces product returns: The likelihood of leaks which can lead to costly shipment rejections is reduced with a strong seal.
  • Product integrity: Reinforces the container’s structure and maintains freshness.
  • Customer confidence: A tamper-evident seal gives consumers peace of mind about the product’s safety and quality.
