OXFORD, England, July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Sidel is pushing the boundaries again in the aseptic packaging market with the

introduction of the Aseptic Predis X4. The new system combines the highest food

safety standards, unprecedented ease of use, maximum flexibility and

best-in-class environmental footprint.

The Aseptic Predis X4 is an integrated blow-fill-cap solution that incorporates

consolidated Predis(TM) dry preform sterilisation, making it ideal for the

growing market of sensitive beverages in PET bottles. It builds on Sidel's

proven and successful aseptic technology and introduces further innovation in

design and digitalisation. The result is that it offers the best possible

experience in both food safety and operation.

With more than 45 years' experience and expertise in the aseptic packaging

equipment market, Sidel has been a pioneer in introducing preform sterilisation

systems. The Aseptic Combi Predis technology received FDA approval in 2017 and

has now had more than 200 installations worldwide.

An evolution of its existing range, the Aseptic Predis X4 is developed by Sidel

to continue to help its customers to meet the growing market for healthy and

nutritious drinks with a long shelf life, such as juice, nectar, soft drinks,

isotonics, teas (JNSDIT), and liquid dairy products (LDP). Demand for these

products is expected to reach 192 billion units by 2024, a rise of rise 44%

compared to 2011. Sensitive products represent 55% of the non-alcoholic

beverages market and forecasted growth (at 2.3% CAGR 2019-25) is higher for PET

than for other materials.

The Aseptic Predis X4 will be  introduced for the first time at drinktec 2022

and will then go through a progressive deployment plan across applications and

regions.

"Continuously listening to our customers' needs, and taking into account their

inputs, we have designed the Aseptic Predis X4 to set new standards in making

our customers' lives easier in total safety," said Guillaume Rolland, Vice

President PET & Sensitive Products. "Keeping the user experience at the heart

of our design, we've made the system so complete, safe and simple to use that

we say, 'it looks after you'. It is easy, flexible and sustainable. It can be

adapted to multiple production types and has the best yet environmental

footprint."

Sidel will be previewing the Aseptic Predis X4 at drinktec, the world's leading

trade fair for the beverage and liquid food industry, from 12-16 September 2022

in Munich. Customers and journalists are invited to come along to Sidel's stand

booth 339 in hall A6 to find out more.
