About MeExample of the product manufactured in the 1960s at Aberdeen Comb Works, after the firm had merged with Daniel Montgomery & Sons Ltd of Glasgow. Montgomery's business was focussed on bottle caps and closures, and plastic components for "metal replacement".

The moulding machines relocated to Aberdeen, and bottle closures for brands such as Drambuie were silk screen printed there, but the majority had additional processes carried out in Glasgow or Kirkintilloch. One example is the jigger cap made for Teachers; the biggest brand volume wise. This item is an example of the jigger cap which was then metallised in Kirkintilloch.
