Mineral water

Complete bottling lines for mineral water

Mineral water bottling lines are characterised by very high productivity, high levels of efficiency and a great variety of containers to be handled: from small single-serve sizes (200 ml) to large 18-20 litre sizes for water dispensers.

"Innovative packaging solutions"

The packaging must be attractive, original and with a strong product identity, to offer good visibility in an increasingly competitive market. As well as the aesthetic appearance, functional and ergonomic aspects also play an important role. Sipa is able to provide incomparable consultancy during development of the packaging, thanks to a wide experience in designing and manufacturing of preforms and containers, and above all to an ongoing commitment to research and development of ever new, high performance and innovative packaging solutions.

Water is a delicate product that is sensitive to changes in taste and smell. For this reason Sipa lines are designed to guarantee high standards of cleanliness and sanitation. Furthermore, considering the generally low cost of the filled product, great attention is given to reducing the management costs of these types of lines, together with the cost of the container (lightened necks and bottles, by designing a dedicated preform or optimising the production process for existing ones) and that of consumables in general.

"Sincro Bloc: ideal for lightweight bottles"

Particularly suitable for this sector is the Sincro Bloc: an integrated blowing/filling/capping system that, both using rotary or linear blowers, guarantees a series of logistic advantages, high levels of hygiene, flexibility, reduction in consumption and it is the best solution to handle ultra light-weight bottles.

Our great packaging experience and top class technological solutions enable us to create complete mineral water systems that are flexible, reliable and high performance, maintaining the quality and safety of the bottled product and allowing differentiation and profitability targets to be met.
