Successful Delivery: Viral Cap Filling & Packaging Line for Thai Client
— A Case Study in Innovative Separation Packaging Solutions
We are pleased to announce the successful completion and final acceptance of our custom-built viral cap filling and packaging line (also known as separation cap production line) for our client in Thailand. The project, which includes a filling & sealing machine, a sachet packaging machine, and a complete set of supporting packaging materials, represents another milestone in our separation packaging portfolio.
The official order was placed on March 23, 2026. Through close collaboration between our engineering team and production department, all equipment and packaging materials have been manufactured on schedule and passed rigorous quality inspections—demonstrating our efficient project delivery capabilities and uncompromising quality standards.
The separation cap—often called the "matcha powder cap" for its explosive popularity on social media—is an innovative solid-liquid separation packaging solution. Its core design principle is "store ingredients in the cap, water in the bottle, mix and drink instantly". Active ingredients such as fruit flavor concentrates, honey, or nutritional powders are hermetically sealed inside the cap compartment, completely isolated from the base liquid (typically purified water) in the bottle. When ready to drink, consumers simply twist or press the cap to release the contents, then shake for a freshly prepared beverage.
Packaging Structure: The separation cap features a precision-engineered multi-layer sealing structure, consisting of:
• Powder/liquid chamber: Stores active ingredients (powder, granules, or liquid) in a single-piece injection-molded compartment for maximum sealing integrity;
• Aluminum foil seal: Heat-sealed to the bottom of the chamber, creating a reliable barrier against leakage and moisture ingress;
• Activation mechanism: Drives a cutting component via twisting or pressing to pierce the aluminum foil seal;
• Outer cap structure: Ergonomically designed for comfortable gripping and easy operation.
How to Use: The consumer experience is simple, intuitive, and surprisingly satisfying:
1. Step 1: Peel off the outer shrink wrap from the cap;
2. Step 2: Hold the bottle firmly and twist or press the top of the cap to activate the release mechanism;
3. Step 3: Watch as the honey / fruit concentrate / nutritional powder flows down into the bottle by gravity;
4. Step 4: Shake well and enjoy your freshly prepared beverage.
Target Audience: Separation packaging products primarily appeal to the following consumer segments:
• Gen Z & Young Consumers: Seeking novel experiences, passionate about social sharing, and willing to pay for creativity;
• Health-Conscious Consumers: Who value clean labels, natural ingredients, and prefer sugar-free, low-fat, nutrient-dense beverages;
• Wellness Enthusiasts: Who prioritize quality of life and seek convenient wellness solutions like honey water, probiotic drinks, and fresh-brewed tea;
• Trend Followers: Early adopters who love trying viral products and sharing new finds on social media.
Market Momentum: As a disruptive packaging innovation, separation packaging has taken the global market by storm in recent years:
Explosive Market Growth: Industry data shows the global separation packaging market reached 2.6 billion in 2024 and is projected to surpass 00 billion by 2030, growing at a remarkable CAGR of 14.7%. The Asia-Pacific region accounts for over 45% of the market, making it the fastest-growing regional market.
Proven Viral Potential: Back in 2018, Thailand's Fresh Doze cap beverage went viral on Douyin (TikTok China), with a single video garnering 2 million+ likes and creating a nationwide "cap shortage" frenzy—powerfully demonstrating the social virality and market appeal of separation cap products.
Major Players Entering the Space: Industry giants like Yili and Amcor have rushed into the separation packaging arena, launching fresh-brewed tea, probiotic drinks, honey water, and other products—further accelerating market education and technological maturity.
Expanding Application Horizons: From initial fruit beverages and honey water to today's tea drinks, functional beverages, nutraceuticals, and even pharmaceutical applications, the use cases for separation packaging continue to expand, revealing enormous market potential.
This project delivers a complete turnkey viral cap filling and packaging line. The core equipment includes:

To ensure a smooth project launch, we also provided a complete set of supporting packaging material solutions:
• Plastic caps (size 6#): 1,000,000 pcs, food-grade material, precision injection-molded;
• Aluminum foil sealing film: 250kg, 110mm width, 0.02mm thickness, 76mm core ID, unprinted design for maximum sealing performance;
• Plastic packaging film: 1,100kg, 150mm width, BOPP/VMPET/PE 6C structure, unprinted, specifically for individual sachet packaging of plastic caps.
Product quality and equipment stability are always our top priorities. To ensure the production line delivered to our Thai client runs reliably for years to come, we implemented the following quality assurance measures:
To thoroughly validate the stability and reliability of the equipment, we proactively purchased 10,000 caps & 50kg matcha powder along with matching sealing film and packaging film at our own expense for extended, high-volume continuous testing. By simulating real production conditions through uninterrupted runtime testing, we comprehensively verified filling accuracy, sealing quality, operational stability, and other key performance indicators—ensuring the equipment is ready for full-scale production immediately upon delivery.
All equipment and packaging materials are manufactured and inspected in strict accordance with national and industry standards, including:
• Full operational testing before shipment, with complete running videos recorded and archived;
• Sample caps and film rolls sent to the packaging machine for trial runs after production, ensuring perfect compatibility between materials and equipment;
• Photographic documentation of every station, electrical cabinet, overall machine appearance, and finished product samples;
• Comprehensive records throughout the entire process—from wooden crate packaging, fumigation, and shipping marks to loading and container sealing.
The successful delivery of this Thai viral cap filling and packaging line project carries important strategic significance:
• Validates our end-to-end solution capabilities in separation packaging—from equipment R&D and manufacturing to packaging material supply, earning full client recognition;
