In search of eco-sustainability: Tapì’s journey towards environmental sustainability

In the last twenty years, here at Tapì we have come a long way in our search for innovative and more eco-sustainable materials for our closures. This philosophy of ours not only impacts the products we supply to our customers, but aims to be truly a part of a sea change currently taking place in the packaging industry, and in the world as a whole.

From ceramics, widely used in the Signature range, all the way through to the Abor concept, which creates closures with spent lees from the distillation process instead of disposing of them in the usual way, not forgetting Duo, a closure designed to help the end user with the recycling process, or Mekano, a mechanical closure that can be used to open and re-close bottles on a continual basis. But that’s not all: our R&D department is implementing new sustainable projects, following in the footsteps of Abor, focusing especially on the ethical side, but also on communications.

Indeed, using an ecological closure to seal a packaging can be a great marketing lever. Several studies have shown that end users are willing to spend more if they share the values of the company they are buying from. So why not take advantage of this current growing trend to leverage your consumer niche while also doing the environment a favour?
