Cleaner Dispensing: Aptar’s Valve vs. Traditional Baffle

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.
