Aptar flow control valves are versatile, working with different viscosities from ketchup to hair treatments.

With over 30 years of commercial success and 40 billion valves sold, Aptar has the expertise and experience to deliver flow control solutions to differentiate and optimize packaging around the world.
Aptar’s flow control valves were developed to deliver clean product dispensing throughout the package’s life. To highlight its value in terms of cleanliness, hygiene, and consumer experience, we completed a side-by-side dispense test between the valve and a traditional baffled orifice with ketchup.
A photo was taken after each squeeze until the package was empty. The image below shows the result after thirty-three consecutive product evacuations were made, indicating that the Aptar valve provides a cleaner product cut-off while the traditional baffle option often results in a “product tail” accumulating on the closure lid over time.

We work with customers to find the optimal valve size, slit configuration, and material to provide a unique product-specific dispensing experience and enhance brand value.
