Innovation Stage – Unlocking sustainable aseptic production
On Monday, November 4, Jerome Tenaud, Director of Equipment Sales Beverages for North America will share Sidel’s expertise in helping manufacturers to unlock sustainable aseptic production at the Innovation Stage, suite N-4560 in the North Hall from 4:00PM to 4:30PM.
“We will discuss the upcoming challenges faced by the aseptic industry and use our fifty years of experience to explore the answer – a dynamic manufacturing packaging line that guarantees product safety, and manages multiple SKUs while improving efficiency and sustainability,” comments Dan Olivier, VP of Equipment Sales Americas at Sidel.
“We’ll examine how today’s consumer habits and market trends impact packaging requirements, and how manufacturers can adapt their production capabilities quickly and efficiently.”
Sidel will also highlight its cutting-edge Aseptic Combi Predis™ on the booth. An integrated blow-fill-cap solution for PET bottles, the Aseptic Combi Predis™ incorporates Sidel’s patented Predis™ dry preform sterilization. This solution ensures continuous production time and efficiency by eliminating conveying, empty-bottle handling, accumulation, and storage.
High-performance palletizing in action
At the show, Sidel will present its agile packing and palletizing equipment for primary packaging, including bottles, shaped containers, jars, tins, pots, cans, flexible packaging, and cartons, as well as secondary packaging: RSC, wrap-around, shelf-ready packaging, or film.
Through live demonstrations, visitors to the booth will witness the efficiency of the agile, compact palletizing unit, RoboAccess_Pal S, introduced to the market last year. Combining the best of robotics and cobotics, this high-performing, all-in-one solution delivers improved agility, operability, and compactness to FHPC markets.
Displayed in the booth, RoboAccess_Pal Sis the perfect solution to replace manual operations. It delivers faster speeds of up to 12 cycles per minute and enables high case payloads of up to 25kg, while ensuring a fast return on investment, typically one to two years. This offering provides a new level of compactness with a footprint of less than 12m² for two stations with a significant pallet height of 1700mm.
To support manufacturers with their evolving needs, in 2023 Sidel also released the new Cermex ProSelex®, a flexible collating system for complex unstable bottles. This gentle, streamlined, grouping device is designed to associate with any type of case packer and will deliver extreme efficiency, high availability, and greater operability.
