EVENT REVIEW 19 PETplanet Insider Vol. 26 Solutions for PET packaging DEMO offers start-to-finish project management: from the design proposal to the design of the PET container, from the evaluation of the impact on the lines of the new container to the conversion of the neck, from the construction of the blowing mould up to the installation and launch of production at the client’s plant. PETplanet met Alberto Castellan, General Manager at DEMO - Design and Moulds. At drinktec, the company presented its portfolio of premium PET bottle design, from PET containers for still or sparkling water, CSDs, bottles for milk or syrup and a lovely highlight, a complex shape PET bottle for Woof, water for dogs. Lightweight engineering The future of PET packaging revolves around respect for the environment and the concept of lightweightness. That is, the new bottles should reduce their environmental impact by using the minimum possible amount of raw material without, however, losing their communicative effectiveness. DEMO explained that, thanks to many years of gradually developed expertise, the most important brands in the beverage industry have entrusted DEMO with the research and development of new containers with low environmental impact. The new containers enable a reduction in raw material and electricity consumption of approximately 15% compared to previous containers. www.designandmoulds.com
