F71, Hall 2.1. Sorema will present its new developments in the mechanical recycling of plastics (PET, PP, PE and fibres) including proven technology for deinking industrial and post-consumer waste. 2) China is undoubtedly an extremely important market for us. At present, there is a plan to establish a Previero office in China within the next 24 months. 3) We believe that the PET industry will develop like last year when large producers of mineral water and soft drink bottlers and the producers of fibres led the market towards a high quality target of recycled materials. Sorema is a leading company in the recycling technology and its well proved plants are the solution to reach the upgrading of recycled materials requested by these industries. www.sorema.it And&Or, Spain 1) Yes, And&Or will be present at booth C07, Hall 4.1.

We already established a sales office in Suzhou. 3) The Chinese market is recovering this year again, and we expect to achieve the numbers from pre-Covid situation in 2022. More efficiency of blow moulding line with automatic handle applicators Moving from HDPE to eye-catching PET bottles with inserting handles automatically with And&Or handle applicator machines: by inserting the handle outside the mould, the speed of the packaging line can be much higher. The system is appropriate to be installed in the existing blowing/filling/packaging line. Finally, the high-quality PET bottle is more attractive because the handle can be coloured. And&Or applicators were developed with specialised technology allowing the automatic insertion of different types of handles. They are adaptive for low, medium or high-speed lines, with different sort of operation: rotary, interval linear or continuous linear. And&Or offers a wide range of handle insertion machine systems, approaching state of the art premium application technology to bottlers and bottle manufacturers willing to transition to PET handle-ware containers. And&Or will offer brands expertise and professional advice in all the transition, accompanying the customer throughout the complete process with support in the design and conception of the handle, bottle, preform specs, etc. with a team of design members and partners to ensure a successful and cost effective final handle-ware bottle. www.andyor.com SOREMA Hall 2.1 Booth F71 AND&OR Hall 4.1 Booth C07
