Benefits of Our Silicone Cross Slit Valves:

1. Superior Leak-Proof Performance:
   The cross slit design ensures optimal sealing and leak-proof dispensing with no mess or waste. This non-stick feature guarantees precise product delivery with every squeeze, preventing drips or unnecessary product loss, making it an ideal choice for food and beverage dispensing applications.
2. FDA & LFGB Compliance:
   Manufactured from platinum-cured silicone, these valves are certified FDA-compliant for direct food contact and meet the LFGB food-contact standards, ensuring the highest level of safety, hygiene, and product quality for food and beverage applications.
3. Temperature Resilience:
   Our valves can withstand a wide temperature range from -40°F to 450°F, making them suitable for both hot and cold food products, including sauces, soups, condiments, and beverages.
4. Sustainability and Safety:
   These silicone valves are BPA-free, ensuring that no harmful chemicals leach into food or beverages. By using these valves, you’re contributing to reducing single-use plastics and supporting a more sustainable food packaging system.

Manufacturing Process:

1. Injection Molding Technology:
   Our silicone cross slit valves are produced using precision injection molding techniques, which allow for high accuracy and repeatability in large-scale production runs. This ensures uniformity in every valve, optimizing performance and minimizing defects.
2. Advanced Testing and Quality Control:
   Each silicone valve undergoes stringent quality assurance checks, including tensile strength tests, dimensional inspections, and leak-proof testing to confirm the integrity of the seals and ensure consistent performance. Shore A durometers are used to verify the right level of softness and flexibility required for proper valve function.
3. Cross Slit Cutting Technology:
   The cross slit design is precision-cut to ensure an exact fit and perfect dispensing control, making it ideal for condiment and beverage closures. This method reduces waste, improves dispensing accuracy, and ensures the clean and efficient release of liquids.

Quality Assurance:

At every stage of the production process, our ISO 9001-certified facility ensures consistent high quality through comprehensive testing protocols. Key features of our quality assurance program include:

• Tensile Strength Testing: To measure material performance under stress and ensure durability.
• Leak-Proof Testing: Conducted over a 24-hour inverted test to verify performance and guarantee a no-leak dispensing solution.
• Dimensional Inspection: Using CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machines) to ensure the precise fit and design of each valve.
• FDA & LFGB Compliance Testing: To ensure that all materials used are safe for food contact and meet the highest international standards.
