Technology
Aseptic Predis X4
Consumer needs are evolving with a strong focus on health and nutrition, taste, convenience and lifestyle, environmental awareness and ethical expectations. In this consumption context, sensitive drinks and products require sensitive care – and Sidel has always been agile with over 45 years of continuous innovation and aseptic experience to adapt to every market need and support customer success.
Sidel has now introduced Aseptic Predis X4, its new integrated blow-fill-cap solution with Predis™ dry preform sterilisation. Built on the proven and current aseptic packaging machine generation, it is safe and simple while offering an unprecedent user-experience supported by new equipment design and reinforced digitalisation.
Aseptic Predis X4 sets state of the art for aseptic technology, with the smallest sterile zone ever and an optimised process cycle. It draws on proven aseptic dry preform sterilisation and Sidel’s leading aseptic expertise. This is the easiest aseptic technology to use and maintain while offering new opportunities to monitor performance through digitalisation. Based on the current champion of aseptic production flexibility, its new features offer even more variation for products and bottles and faster changeover times. It raises the bar in terms of the efficient use of resources for aseptic bottling, which lowers the CO2 footprint and total cost of ownership (TCO).
