BOTTLING / FILLING PET planet Insider Vol. 20 No. 03/19 www.petpla.net 23 Aseptic PET bottle filling line for China’s VV Group Soy bean milk in PET VV Group, which was founded in 1992 and is based in Xuzhou, China, is one of the country’s leading producers of soy bean milk. It also produces Tianshan snow milk and Liuchaosong flour products. The company has a reputation within China as a pioneer that actively explores and seeks to expand the field of plant protein beverages. VV Group’s factory in Wuxi City has invested in a new aseptic fill- ing line, provided and installed by Newamstar, to package liquid soy bean milk in PET bottles. Newamstar also lays claim to a pioneering repu- tation, as the leader in China in the adoption of aseptic filling technology for PET bottling. Once extracted from the bean, soy bean milk undergoes industrial processing to provide it with its colour, smell and taste. VV Group was origi- nally known as a manufacturer of soy bean milk powder but has transferred its focus to liquid products. The flavour and nutritional qualities of the com- pany’s soy bean milk have helped to make it popular with consumers. Its market share is reported to have grown and it has become a leading choice for workplace and domestic consumption. Newamstar and VV group signed a contract for an initial aseptic filling line, which has a capacity of 24,000 500ml bph. The line has been run- ning smoothly from outset and has demonstrated the ability to produce good quality PET bottled soy bean milk, consistently and without major interruptions. The line’s performance has demonstrated the capacity of the product and the process to contribute to sustainable future development of the product within the VV Group. www.newamstar.com ADHESLEEVE ® TECHNOLOGY THE BEST SOLUTION FOR ROLL-FED LABELLING EVEN ON CANS!
