Optimized Ferrule Design for the MDI Valve
MKON Sustainable Ferrule Design (Patent Pending)
Since its inception, the conventional MDI valve ferrule has been manufactured utilizing solid sidewall construction. MKONs new and innovative sidewall design is more efficient and utilizes up to 9-18% less aluminum without compromising strength and effectiveness.
Additionally, the open lattice ferrule design eliminates trapped air between the ferrule and the canister facilitating faster leak detection by water bath or vacuum decay leak testing methods.
Benefits
- Reduce the weight of aluminum used in each valve
- Meets EU 13428 source reduction requirements for “Green Packaging”
- Faster, more accurate Leak Test results
- No detrimental ferrule strength loss and no crimping collet changes are required with the new design.
- Recycle pre-production scrap, resulting in a more sustainable packaging design
