Recyclable Low-Emission Aerosol Valve Mechanism for Sustainable Refillable Lighter Systems with Carbon Neutral Certification

Product Description:

Engineered for the circular economy, this patented aerosol lighter valve features 92% recycled brass and bio-based POM seals, reducing cradle-to-grave CO₂e by 47% versus conventional valves. The emission control valve incorporates laser-welded dual-seat technology achieving near-zero fugitive emissions (<0.5g/year hydrocarbon loss), exceeding EU Ecodesign 2025 standards. As a core refill adapter mechanism, it enables 1000+ maintenance-free refill cycles via standardized butane canisters, eliminating disposable waste. Proprietary vapor recovery technology captures 99% of residual gas during cartridge replacement, while the modular design allows disassembly for component recycling. Certified Cradle-to-Cradle Silver and ISO 14067 carbon neutral, this sustainable flow regulator delivers consistent 25mm±2 flames from -5°C to 45°C. Manufacturers targeting ESG-conscious consumers leverage this valve for premium eco-lighters compliant with EU Single-Use Plastics Directive.
