The Bahamas Welcomes a New Blow Molding Machine
In the search for the ideal blow molding machine, the wandering soul of a procurement manager often ventures into places that are dark and scary. But why face such a fate when you can discover how the APF-Max series blow molder can be the perfect solution?
Recently, PET Technologies installed its first blow molding machine in the Bahamas.
This new addition, the APF-Max 6, offers:
Being our second most productive machine APF-Max 6 delivers equally impressive results.
Water has always been the most popular product packaged in PET, including for our client, who produces alkaline drinking water. Previously, they relied on purchasing PET bottles from external suppliers. Now, with their own bottle production, they’re reaping the benefits.
When you buy empty bottles from another manufacturer, you’re essentially paying to ship air. Bottles that could be used immediately after being blown now have to travel miles to reach you, adding unnecessary costs, especially in remote areas like islands.
With your own blow molding machine, you have bottles at your fingertips. You can also update designs quickly and efficiently. Plus, as your production expands, you won’t be limited by an external supplier’s capacity to deliver enough bottles. In short, having your own machine gives you room to grow.
Currently, our client produces 1.5L and 0.5L bottles for their alkaline water.
Bottle Design
Numbers alone don’t tell the full story. What sets PET Technologies apart is the personalized approach we take with every client. If you want a unique, innovative bottle design, we’ve got you covered. Through detailed market research, regular consultations, and multiple design variants, we work with you to create a design that is both distinctive and technologically advanced. Plus, we offer laboratory testing to ensure your design meets all the necessary standards
Blow Molds
For those who want to continue using their old bottle design, switch to a new one, or even use both, we offer a solution. We manufacture our own blow molds at our plant using 5-axis CNC machines. With a special trolley, you can change out mold sets on the APF-Max in just 20 minutes, ensuring maximum flexibility and efficiency in your production process
Compressor and Chiller
Of course, a blow molding machine doesn’t work in isolation. PET Technologies offers a complete solution, including compressors and chillers, eliminating the need for additional vendors and reducing downtime. As official distributors, we ensure that our compressors and chillers integrate seamlessly with our machines.
In fact, our Bahamas client opted for this package and is now enjoying the benefits of a fully operational system.
