Die-Cut Lidding Application
Die-cut lidding is generally compatible with high-speed filling and sealing packaging equipment and systems. These pre-cut lids are used most commonly with larger-diameter packaging containers across multiple industries like dairy, snacks, sauces, single-serve foods, creams, and brewable beverage pods.
We offer die-cut lid solutions in a wide variety of materials including variants on paper, plastic, and aluminum foils. From flexible metal-plastic laminate for thermal processing to foil lids for ultimate protection, LMI Packaging can create the ultimate packaging solution for your product.
We also offer rim embossed lidding. Embossing may be preferred for a number of reasons such as ensuring flatness, better lid separation on the filling line, or for aesthetic purposes. Rim embossing can help your lids stand out on shelves.
Die-cut lids can be applied on glass, polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), ceramic cups, and bottles to preserve a diverse array of products. Our die-cut lid solutions are easily peelable while providing ultimate protection making them both consumer-friendly and incredibly reliable.
Die-Cut Lid Materials
Foil Lids
Made from aluminum with heat sealing lacquer or film, foil die-cut lids offer great flexibility in design and application. Foil lids are high barrier and easy to peel with enhanced customization opportunities like pin-dot and custom embossed logos or designs. Foil lids are a perfect fit for yogurt, milk, cheese, water, juice, beverages, coffee, cosmetics, and more.
Plastic Lids
Made from materials like polyethylene terephthalate (PET), plastic die-cut lids can be embossed or unembossed with opaque, metalized, or transparent film. Non-transparent films offer improved graphic quality and color saturation. Plastic die-cut lids offer excellent resistance to punctures and tears, they are metal free for packaging systems that require metal-detecting systems, and are microwavable, making them extremely customer friendly.
Paper Lids
Made from paper-laminated aluminum and plastic film of varying thicknesses, paper lids have high sealing power, high print quality, are resistant to mechanical damage, and are very cost effective. Die-cut paper lids are perfect for products that require effective protection from external environments like snacks, yogurts, frozen goods, and more.
