Lift 'n' PeelTM LP-T Product Description LP-T is a one-piece top-tabbed induction innerseal that incorporates an easily gripped semicircular tab as an easy-open feature. The tab is attached to the top of the innerseal disc facilitating easy removal of the membrane from the container in one piece by pulling upward. The balanced sealing properties of this structure provide ease of removal as well as a secure seal. LP-T is designed to seal to PVC and polyester containers. The unique design of this tabbed innerseal provides an advantage to the cap manufacturer because a conventional punch and die set can be used when lining the caps. Typical Applications Typical packaging applications include innerseals for edible oils, water, juices, condiments, shampoos, conditioners, and gasoline treatments and additives.
