PET container manufacturing relies on two distinct process methodologies: single-stage (1-step) and two-stage (2-step) bottle production systems.
The core differences between these processes include:
1-Step Process (Single-Stage): Integrates preform injection molding with stretch-blow moulding inside a single PET bottle making machine. Finished containers are produced directly from plastic resin in one continuous operation.
2-Step Process (Two-Stage): Separates container manufacturing into two distinct phases. Preforms are first produced on an injection molding system, then reheated and processed on a standalone PET bottle blowing machine.
SIPA holds a unique position in the global packaging market as the sole manufacturer supplying both 1-step and 2-step manufacturing solutions.
Key engineering capabilities include:
- Comprehensive equipment range: Production systems spanning high-speed rotary blowing systems, flexible linear blow moulders, and compact single-stage ISBM machines.
- Proprietary mold design: In-house manufacturing of injection and blowing molds engineered for SIPA systems as well as third-party bottle blowing machine brands.
- Integrated container development: Complete end-to-end container design and prototyping services.
