There are common characteristics and manufacturing practices shared between Europe and USA. Regardless of the aesthetics which may be identical we recommend you inquire and even challenge what you cant’ see. Most if not all Flip-off cap manufacturers in western countries do control, not only their inhouse processes, but the processes of their suppliers extended by a perfect traceability of all raw material components coming into play. This aspect is definitely a given from western firms. Also, labels, accreditations and certifications are requested and controlled both by governmental and nongovernmental reliable sanitary services.
Far from trying to discredit any flip-off cap manufacturer, we recommend you invest time and resources achieving a much deeper selection process than what you would do selecting a western supplier. Your primary concern should be to verify all official certifications, diplomas, labels.
