Environment and CSR
The world leader in stretch blow moulding for PET bottles, Sidel’s concern for the environment is not a recent development. We have an established track record of source reduction initiatives and have been particularly instrumental in PET bottle lightweighting. Our industry-leading knowledge of PET, package design and equipment expertise enables customers to achieve optimal package and line performance vis à vis package weight, with many able to achieve as much as 20–30 per cent gram weight reduction. Sidel has proposed a number of equipment innovations aimed at reducing the consumption of energy and other resources. In addition, we have led research in the field of packaging material possibilities, from the use of recycled materials to testing materials made from renewable resources. Sidel is a pioneer in beverage packaging solutions, especially for PET bottles. Some innovations are: the Combi system allowing bottle making, filling and capping for PET bottles; Predis, a revolutionary sustainable solution to enhance bottle hygiene; Flexline, the high-speed most sustainable solution for ultra-light PET bottles. Sustainability is Sidel’s new frontier for innovation.
