Vitop® Taps

The n°1 leader worldwide in taps for Bag-in-Box®

First designed in 1989 and produced at the Smurfit Kappa state-of-the-art facility in Alessandria, Italy, the Vitop® tap has revolutionised Bag-in-Box® packaging through a combination of its tamper-proof design and high oxygen barrier that significantly contributes to extend product freshness and shelf life.

Vitop is the leading provider of Bag-in-Box closure solutions with over 5 billion taps sold and an impressive leak rate of only 1 in 85 million since its launch.

Combining science, design and convenience, its success is also partly due to the fact that it is extremely easy to use. The Vitop® comes in several versions for specific applications: aseptic, water and dairy, edible oil, detergents and more upon request.
