Introduction
Bag-in-Box Dispensing Taps are the critical interface between the packaged liquid and the end-user, controlling flow and preventing oxygen ingress during dispensing. Suzhou Jingle Packaging supplies various tap designs, including the widely used Vitop style, manufactured from food-grade plastic resins. These taps are secured to the bag fitment, creating a reliable seal that is activated only upon consumer use.
The design ensures a continuous, non-drip flow and an effective hermetic seal when closed, extending product freshness post-opening.

FAQ
- Q: Are the taps suitable for both thin liquids and viscous liquids?
- A: Standard taps are optimized for low-viscosity liquids; specialized taps with wider apertures are available for products like thicker syrups and sauces.
- Q: Can the tap be disconnected and re-sealed?
- A: Dispensing taps are generally designed for single, continuous use after activation, as disconnection compromises the air-tight seal and product safety.
- Q: Do these taps contribute to the overall barrier protection of the package?
- A: Yes, the tap forms a critical part of the bag's seal. Its design prevents gas and moisture ingress at the point of dispensing, complementing the bag's barrier film.
