Successful PET references

Better conditions and growing demand are generating incredible growth among regional beverage bottlers in Tanzania. This also goes for Watercom – an enterprise that in the space of just a few years has invested in not one but two KHS lines for water, soft drinks and juice.

In 2018 a big fire caused terrible damage to Serbian milk producer Imlek’s production site. One of the many items destroyed was a KHS aseptic filler, just six years old. When it came to procuring a replacement, the company again opted for the Dortmund systems supplier – and for a block system featuring the latest in stretch blow molding technology.

Ukrainian Mineral Waters (UMW) fills not one but three products on its new PET line from KHS. The new technology is as beneficial to the company’s production process as the mineral water is to the health of its consumers.

Little effort, big impact: this is what you get with the new quick neck change option on the InnoPET Blomax when manufacturing PET bottles. It considerably reduces the time needed for changeovers, giving bottlers greater flexibility and higher efficiency in production.

For many years KHS has been developing new technologies to continuously reduce the amount of energy and resources consumed within the beverage industry. The impact this has on a bottler’s carbon footprint can now be measured in figures with the help of a specially developed calculation tool.
