DIN EN 14324

The DIN EN 14324 standard outlines comprehensive guidelines and procedures for testing the torque strength of plastic bottle closures. Developed by the German Institute for Standardization (DIN) in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (EN), this standard plays a critical role in industries where secure and functional bottle closures are essential. It specifies how to accurately measure the torque needed to open and close bottle caps, ensuring they remain tight and secure while also being easy to open for consumers.

This standard also considers the compatibility of different materials, particularly plastics, ensuring that it is relevant to a wide range of packaging solutions. By adhering to the DIN EN 14324 guidelines, manufacturers can guarantee consistent quality, reducing risks such as leaks, contamination, or cap damage during transportation and storage.
