OKTO BAG IT’S TIME TO EMPTY THE BAG www.moretto.com HALL 7A STAND 519 Weight savings with closures Bericap has already been able to convert a large portion of its different beverage closures into lighter weight versions that fit the respective bottlenecks. The resulting saving of granulate permits an annual reduction in CO 2 production of some 60,000t. The company has developed 33mm closures for hot fillings which are available in two versions, flat screw closure and ‘PushPull sport closure’ which completely does without an aluminium sealing foil. Both versions of the closure have the Dou- bleSeal system. The DoubleSeal 33mm is equipped with a cut and folded safety strip that opens the first time the bottle is opened. The bottleneck and closure can be up to 39% lighter than the 38mm closure system. The 33mm closure that is based on the DoubleSeal has a folded and cut safety strip that breaks the first time the bottle is opened. It can also be used on all conventional aseptic systems with dry or wet sterilisation. Berciap’s Push Pull Next Generation closure does not require an aluminium foil as a seal. The Three-part Push Push Pull Next Generation is equipped with DoubleSeal technology. The 38mm closure has been used for aspetic fillings up to now and is appropriate for wet and dry sterilisation processes. The successful qualification of the 33mm Push Pull Next Generation for the hot filling process by a multi-national beverage filler in Latin America is a new feature. The bottlenecks for PET 29/25 and PET 26 were developed for still beverages, in particular for non-carbonated water running in parallel with PCO 1881. Both bot- tlenecks have now been established by Cetie as European standards. The SuperShorty-Family is designed e.g. for oxygen-sensitive beer in PET packaging, aseptic filling or carbonated beverages. In the standard PCO 1881 range, Bericap offers six different closures with dif- ferent weights, upon request also in customized design. www.bericap.com Bericap Hall 4 | Booth 511 Modular labeller Micro-breweries, which produce traditional cask ales, do not run their production at high speed.

Modular is avail- able in two versions.The one for mid- low speeds will be exhibited at Brau Beviale.
