\u201cDriven by increasing consumer expectations around reuse and the evolving regulatory environment, especially within the EU[1], Sidel has taken an important step in bottle design, offering still water producers unique and optimised, reusable solutions\u201d, said Jerome Neveu, Packaging and Mold Product Manager at Sidel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlocking new possibilities for still water producers<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This new design marks an important evolution in reusable packaging, giving beverage producers new opportunities. As an industry-first, beverage producers can access a returnable PET solution, designed around the needs of still water, rather than adapted from carbonated water requirements, removing all the structural constraints associated with carbonation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith our new Returnable PET \u2013 Still Water, Sidel has introduced a returnable bottle that is truly purpose-built for still water, one of the largest bottled beverage markets. Beverage producers are no longer limited to bottles originally designed for carbonated water. Instead, we offer the first returnable PET bottle developed specifically for still water, delivering significant lightweighting opportunities, durable aesthetics and customisable design options,\u201d continued Neveu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lightweight and fully recyclable<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a returnable PET bottle designed for still water, Sidel\u2019s new Returnable PET \u2013 Still Water is 10% lighter than the lightest 1-litre returnable carbonated water bottles currently used for still water. The bottle is designed to withstand up to 25 washing cycles, delivering consistent durability and performance from start to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also fully compatible with existing PET recycling streams, enabling bottle\u2011to\u2011bottle circularity at the end of its service life. This new design is compatible with Sidel\u2019s entire EvoBLOW blow-moulding range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Customisable, unique design appeal<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sidel\u2019s new bottle offers cylindrical and distinctive square shapes, ranging from 0.5 to 2-litre capacities. Returnable PET \u2013 Still Water easily enables customisable and unique designs, reflecting a brand\u2019s signature single-use-bottle shape, while using a returnable packaging format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ability to create textured surfaces preserves the bottle\u2019s premium appearance throughout multiple reuse cycles, enhancing the bottle\u2019s tactile and visual appeal. This glass-like PET bottle matches the market needs of retailers, hotels, restaurants and catering (HORECA), where aesthetics is essential.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
