17 Mould tools for PET bottle production Once again our annual survey provides, at a glance, details of companies supplying mould tools for PET bottle production. These include suppliers of injec- tion moulds for the manufacture of preforms as well as stretch blow moulds for PET bottles. Of course, in addition to numerous local mouldmakers, the big global players are also included. A new arrival in the field this year is IPET/Moldmasters. This is a company that is aiming to establish itself as a major player and plans to ensure extensive market cover- age by expanding its sales network in the Far East, Europe and America. Many companies specialise in either preform moulds or blow moulds for bottles, but there are also, of course, companies that offer both preform moulds and bottle moulds. With the suppliers of stretch blow moulds it has now become almost the norm to offer a bottle design service, but companies, that specialise in preform moulds, also provide clients with a bottle design service (e.g. Husky). Although the publishers have made every effort to ensure that the information in this survey is up to date no claims are made regarding completeness or accuracy 06/10 MARKET survey Company name Krones AG Simex SRL Mega Otto Hofstetter AG Novapet SRL PET Technologies Europe GmbH Postal address Telephone number Web site address Contact name Function Direct telephone number Fax E-Mail Böhmerwaldstr. 5 +49 9401 700 www.krones.com Peter Christiansen Sales Plastics Technology +49 9401 70-4980 +49 9401 70-914980
