PET for aseptic milk

Huanlejia, well-known as a Chinese producer of food and beverages, recently switched from HDPE to PET bottles for its coconut milk; its main objectives in this change were to reinforce brand image and increase production speed.

Supplying the two lines that produce the PET bottles at 48,000/hr was Sidel (www.sidel.com). Decoration and branding is delivered by way of a full-body shrink sleeve label. The new product has been well received by consumers and also won an award in China’s annual 2018 Chengdu Food and Drinks Fair.

Strong, unbreakable, light, transparent, safe, and 100% recyclable, the PET bottle ensures the coconut milk 12-month shelf life. There is no need for a sterilized aluminum foil before capping because the tightness between the bottle neck and the cap is so secure.
