BOTTLING / FILLING PET planet Insider Vol. 20 No. 11/19 www.petpla.net 13 BOTTLING / FILLING 13 Approximately 17 of the large 20 l containers are filled every minute. In addition to this propri- etary plant, six additional contract bottlers use the facilities here in the south who fill exclusively for Bisleri, in particular the 20 l reusable contain- ers. The giant water company pays meticulous attention to ensuring consistent, identical quality of water. “We obtain our preforms from the local con- verter, Manjushree Technopack. The lads there also make the 20 l containers,” Mr Vishwanath continued. The suppliers in the closures sector are Aglo Polymers, Bericap, Oriental Containers and Plenco. Around 300 employees work at the site on a three-shift pattern. In 2009, Bisleri changed its blue logo design to the green of today. Among other factors, this is intended to symbolise ecology and respect for the environment and nature. The bottler is putting its visual commitment into practice, having set up a small biotope on the factory premises. A water storage basin – stocked with fish – makes for an attractive demonstration of the water recovery system. Nestling in a park with a variety of plants, fruit trees and a large rabbit enclosure, the facility is designed not only to give company employees some relaxation, but to provide school groups and interested visitors with an understanding of the topic of sustainability, and to convey extensive learning content on plant and animal diversity at the same time. www.bisleri.com Bisleri’s very special format: the 5l “Rocking Bottle“ Bisleri staff packing boxes with “Bisleri 500“ www.sacmi.com Product design Product development Product validation Industrial production plant Process & quality control On-site and start-up assistance After-sales and Customer service SACMI 4.0 THE COMPLETE CLOSURE, PREFORM AND CONTAINER SOLUTION FOR YOUR SMART FACTORY Compression goes multilayer.
