Tradition and manufacturing

More than 50 years, the Naftusya mineral water plant has been delighting its customers with the Truskavetskaya mineral water. This year PET Technologies has also become involved in this production. But first things first…

A bit of history

In 1962, a mineral water bottling plant was built in the vicinity of the famous resort of Truskavets, which has always been known for its healing mineral water springs. The Naftusya mineral water plant was the first in Truskavets and one of the first mineral water plants in Ukraine. Its own wells, which are located on the territory of the plant have made the company the only mineral water plant carrying out a spill at the site of production.

In 2019, the company has reached a new level of production. It was necessary to increase capacity due to increased demand and supplies to chain supermarkets. The reliability of the equipment was the main criteria when choosing new equipment.

Our cooperation

The cooperation between the two companies began in 2016 with an acquaintance, negotiations, excursions to manufacturing, commercial offers, and calculations… The delivery of the APF-6004 together with 0.5 and 1.5l blow molds took place in February 2020. This is the first blow molding machine APF-6004 released in an updated design.

The automatic blow molding machine APF-6004 has a number of advantages, including guaranteed output, energy efficiency, air recovery system, unique mold closing system, convenience, and ease of operation. 

Prototyping

“Truskavetskaya” had ordered a bottle prototyping, which allowed the plant to conduct a number of marketing and technical research before fully investing in the project and bringing the new product to market.

Prototyping is also relevant in order to save money as it allows to reduce the weight of the preform and analyze the feasibility of the project at the development stage.

Presently

The Naftusya mineral water plant is equipped with a modern filling line. The water extracted from the well undergoes a multi-stage cleaning system, therefore it gets rid of all mechanical impurities.

With such strict quality control and reliable equipment, water has a unique natural taste and softness. All equipment at the factory meets the latest requirements and food industry certificates.
