Continuous improvement of beverage bottle packaging automation

To meet the needs of retailers, manufacturers are under pressure to adopt less wasteful packaging methods.

Global environmental crisis is affecting every corner of the food industry. There is no doubt that the flexible packaging juice industry is no exception. In order to reduce packaging waste and reduce package weight, food production companies are currently under pressure to adopt alternative packaging methods to meet the needs of retailers.

However, when companies are facing a surge in costs, they are also facing pressure to increase profits.

Until recently, the traditional form of packaging for fresh fruit juices had always been a plastic round bottomed bottle and matched a grippable lid. But more recently, the beverage industry has been developing its use of recyclable packaging materials to increase the sustainability of product packaging. Due to the increasing pressure from retailers, fruit juice manufacturers need to take a fresh look at the packaging of juice products.

In the list of ways in which the juice industry seeks change, reducing package weight is the first shortcut. The British packaging machinery manufacturer, British Packaging Automation Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as PA, is responsible for its sales in the Australian region by MPI), proposes an innovative concept for implementing a delivery solution.

Neil Ashton, Sales Manager at Packing Automation UK, said: “We have seen some changes in the flexible packaging juice industry – the emergence of innovative packaging formats and the application of innovative materials are also exhaustive. Behind these changes, reducing packaging The overall weight is a key driving force. Replacing the grippable cap with a product tray sealed with a low-thin film can significantly reduce the weight of the product's overall package.”

Pallet manufacturers are also seeking ways to reduce the thickness of thin pallets used in pallets, and try to reduce the width of the edges of the package to further reduce the overall weight of the package. All these changes and attempts mentioned above have brought challenges to the machinery manufacturing industry. The machinery manufacturer must have the ability to design reliable, easy-to-use equipment, and the equipment must demonstrate good performance each time the tray is sealed.

Neil Ashton continues: “In British Packaging Automation, we have first-rate designers. Our clear design points to the development of top-level mechanical tools that reduce the overall weight of the package for customers. At the same time, manufacturers need to find fast and reliable products. The solution, and get support in deciding to change the product packaging. Different retailers may have different requirements in terms of the materials used for the tray, the size of the tray itself, etc. Therefore, our equipment must have the ability to handle all of these The changing factors: In response to the changing factors, the British Leasing Automation Co., Ltd. has a unique advantage in its leasing services.Pallet automation equipment for soft juices is usually expensive and has a large amount of investment. Due to seasonal production reasons, a growing flexible packaging Fruit juice production companies do not want to idle their equipment in the storage and storage rooms during the off-season. We can provide customers with appropriate equipment in the short-term rental service of attractive equipment to cope with the special needs of the company during the year. Time pair With the surge in demand for equipment and equipment, from the beginning of next season, flexible packaging juice makers can benefit from renting our newest product, 'eco-cut', with less waste of eco-cut film and production speed. Faster, shorter downtime. Because it can be produced with thinner film thickness, 'eco-cut' can significantly reduce the overall weight of the package.”

The pilot at the customer's factory showed that "eco-cut" can seal 8200 trays with a roll of film. Previously on the same production line, a conventional film sealer could only handle 4440 trays with a roll of film of the same length. At the same time, as “eco-cut” can be produced using low-thickness films with a thickness of only 15 μm, this obviously reduces production costs to a large extent.

Many companies have already benefited from the solutions provided by British Packaging Automation. For example, every year since 2004, the Bluedot juice production company in the UK has selected equipment rental services from British Packaging Automation. This year, Dorset Blueberry Juice chose green PET film trays to replace previously used PVC bottles. Since then, the company has become more convinced that British Packaging Automation's products can provide the perfect solution.

In Scotland, Geoffrey Bruce’s retailers want to improve the safety and tamper-evident performance of their product packaging. For this reason, Geoffrey Bruce gave up the use of grippable caps instead of sealing trays and adopted a British Packaging Automation solution to lease its Vision 400 pallet sealing equipment.

Geoff Bruce's Production Director is very satisfied with the quality of the services provided by Packing Automation UK, including rapid response and effective completion of the project. The production director said: "It is commendable that British Packaging Automation Co., Ltd. is responsible for the entire project, carried out and implemented all the pilot projects, carried out all the necessary improvements, and completed the installation and commissioning of the entire project from start to finish. ."

Samantha Ashton of British Packaging Automation concluded: “The packaging forms used for flexible packaging beverages are constantly changing, so manufacturers need to constantly make changes to quickly adapt to change. Reduce packaging weight, use recycled materials, and steal Kai Display Packaging is becoming an increasingly obvious trend in the development of flexible packaging beverages, helping soft packaging juice manufacturers respond quickly to the needs of retailers. With the help of the British packaging automation company, the manufacturing company learned that this company is a good packaging partner. , can quickly respond to the product, and provide customers with the necessary services."

British Packaging Automation Co., Ltd. was established in 1963 and specializes in manufacturing pallet sealing equipment for the food industry. In 2004, British Packaging Automation signed an exclusive distribution agreement with MPI, and MPI was responsible for the sales of all products in the packaging automation series of British Packaging Automation Ltd. in the Australian market. Headquartered in Sydney, Australia, MPI is a leading supplier to the Australian packaging market.
