New platforms and sustainability on stage at K2019. Visit SIPA booth in the Hall 13/B11

SIPA's commitment to the environment is continuous, effective, measurable. With the introduction of XTREME Renew, SIPA stands as a leading company in compliance with the principles of Circular Economy. Also, SIPA has always focused on a more reasoned consumption of PET, enabling its customers to produce lighter-weight containers, removing material where it is not necessary. Our technologies operate more energy-efficiently and reduce the carbon footprint of PET packaging. Come and visit us to learn how we will continue to work on developments that help make PET the best, most cost-effective AND environment-friendly option for packaging.

LOWERING YOUR CONVERSION COST TO UNPRECEDENTED LEVELS
XFORM 250 GEN4, designed to handle the most demanding applications, will handle preform molds with up to 96 cavities. It is fast, flexible, highly energy-efficient (consuming under 200W of electricity for every kilo of PET it processes), and fully compatible with legacy tooling. The XFORM 250 GEN4 will deliver low conversion and maintenance costs, as well as ease of use via the latest generation of operator interfaces with a 21.5-inch touch screen.

SIPA TOOLING INCREASE PRODUCTION UPTIME, PART QUALITY AND PROCESS CONSISTENCY
SIPA will display an outstanding 192C HR in its booth, implementing the latest design features and capable to guarantee unprecedented melt balance values and even longer maintenance intervals along with a significant reduction in refurbishing cost. As a world premiere, SIPA will also introduce the new GEN5 preform tooling, engineered to massively increase production up-time while delivering the widest flexibility from the production planning perspective.

FROM FLAKES TO PREFORMS IN A SINGLE STEP
The new Plastic Economy is now a reality with Xtreme Renew, the first single-cycle system that lets you produce preforms food-contact approved made from up to 100% recycled PET flakes in a single energy cycle. An exciting innovation from the minds of SIPA and EREMA. Emissions of CO2 during production of PET bottles from recycled material using traditional RPET processes are already 60% lower than when using virgin PET. With the new highly innovative process, emissions are cut by an additional 20%, and 30% less electricity is consumed, thanks to the integration of the various phases into a single plant. Moreover, Xtreme Renew can produce preforms that are up to 10% lighter, reduce logistics and transportation costs by 20% and Total Cost of Ownership by 15%.

HOT FILL OPTION FOR ECS SP80 SINGLE-STAGE ISBM SYSTEM
The ECS SP 80 HF will produce oval-shaped 420-ml ketchup bottles, weighing just 28 g, at a speed of 1540 bottles per hour. The bottles are resistant both to a filling temperature of 85°C (±2°C) and to vacuum forces that occur as they cool down and which could otherwise cause labels to peel off. The ECS SP systems stand out for their compact dimensions, high energy-efficiency, best-in in-class, and the premium quality of the containers they produce.

ECHO PLATFORM, A DIGITAL REVOLUTION
Digitization is a process done by people, for people. Every day we are immersed in an incredible flow of data that we do not use or that are not aimed at our interests and needs. Echo is a technology platform that enables the sharing economy concepts and gives the customer access to a large amount of targeted information in real time: functions, applications and solutions that interact with the data, connecting the entire ecosystem to actively create value.
