'''How it works:'''

A preform is placed in the mold and then the actual beverage or any other product which is to be bottled, is forced at high pressure into the preform, molding it into the bottle shape.

This results in a filled bottle, ready for capping and labelling.

'''Reduced energy use'''

A significant reduction in the energy required for bottling is achieved by eliminating the need for compressed air.

With standard blow molding the air compression cycle is only 35% to 40% efficient and consumes approximately 70% of the total amount of electricity used in the blow molding process.

'''Lower capital cost and reduced factory footprint'''

Standard bottle making and filling operations are typically performed by two separate pieces of equipment. The LiquiForm® process requires a footprint which compares to a traditional blow molder, dramatically reducing floor space requirements.
