Sidel at Interpack 2008 Innovations safeguard health and the environment
Sidel, o要e of the world’s top suppliers of complete bottling lines, will take part in Interpack, packaging’s biggest trade show, in Dusseldorf from April 24th-30th. At its 1,000-sq-meter booth, Sidel will present its newest packaging solutions, from bottle design to palletizing.
This year, sensitive drinks take center stage.

Sidel will unveil its latest aseptic packaging solutions for this market segment, which puts a premium o要 product safety.

Part of Sidel’s booth will be dedicated to breakthrough solutions created by Sidel to address to these concerns.

• In contrast with conventional bottle decontamination processes, Predis™, Sidel’s unique dry preform decontamination technology uses few chemicals and no water. At the show, Sidel will feature new applications for this technology.
• Options and Upgrades kits enable manufacturers to improve existing equipment with solutions offering significant water or energy savings. Without investment in new equipment, producers can reduce their equipment’s impact o要 the environment and get a quick return o要 investment.
Finally, another area of the booth will showcase innovative end of line solutions.
