Re-CAP Solutions licenses the CanShield technology.
You've still got full control over production, sourcing, and line integration
Getting to know CanShield
Re-CAP Solutions is the technology licensor.
We come up with the patented CanShield concept and system architecture, and we'll leave the production and implementation to you and your regional partners.
Here are the main points:
Volume-based license agreement
Your license fee depends on how much you fill each year.
We need at least 10 million cans a year.
Manufacturing stays in your value chain
CanShield closures are produced via standard injection molding using PP (polypropylene).
What is required:
A multi-cavity injection molding tool
(e.g. 8-cavity or 16-cavity tool)
Tool can be:
Ordered directly from your trusted mold maker, or
Financed via the license fee model
RE-CAP Solutions supports you in:
Selecting suitable regional injection molders
Optimizing tool design for series production
Ensuring short transport routes and sustainability alignment
Typical timeline:
Tool design → tool manufacturing → series sampling
Approx. 4–6 months
Built for your layout and performance requirements
The CanShield pick-and-place system is usually implemented by:
Your existing filler manufacturer, or
An in-house / trusted special machine builder
Always in close technical coordination with Re-CAP Solutions.
Typical system components:
Rotary indexing table
CanShield feeding & sorting system
Heating stations
Alignment stations
Joining / pressing unit
Control system
Full safety enclosure
Indicative figures:
Investment for a standard high-performance system: ~ €350,000
Project duration (design → acceptance): ~ 4–6 months
Designed as a premium add-on – not a line rebuild
CanShield is deliberately integrated after filling and standard seaming.
Process overview:
Empty cans are filled as usual
Cans are sealed with the standard end (seamer unchanged)
After the seamer, a partial stream is diverted via a side conveyor
CanShield closures are:
Sorted and fed automatically
Heated to processing temperature
Aligned with the can tab
Applied from above using a joining/pressing unit
Equipped cans return to the main conveyor
Packaging and palletizing continue as normal
Result: A resealable can – without touching your core filling process
Clearly defined. Fully transparent.
