Lehui Successfully Developed PET Bottle Aseptic Cold Filling Production Line

Based on the comparison and reference of the latest PET bottle aseptic filling technology, Lehui Group has invested more than RMB 10 million in scientific research funding and has successfully developed a world-leading level of sterility by virtue of its rich processing experience and advanced processing technology. China's first PET bottle cold aseptic filling production line with isolation technology. The PET bottle aseptic cold filling production line can be suitable for 350 ~ 2500ml PET bottles of high acid, low acid and neutral fruit and vegetable juices, teas and various beverages.

With the booming worldwide packaging of PET bottles, filling of juices and soft drinks is progressing from hot filling to aseptic cold filling. According to the continuous pursuit of beverage quality by the market and consumers, the share of the hot-filling market will gradually be reduced and replaced by aseptic cold filling with broad market potential. According to this change, the aseptic cold filling technology introduced by the Packaging Machinery Division of Lehui Group.

Experts in the industry believe that this production line has the advantage that hot filling can not be compared: Filling at normal temperature, avoiding hot filling, minimizing the heating time of the beverage, little vitamin loss of the product, rich nutrition, maintaining the beverage The authenticity of the product. In the absence of preservatives and any other additives, the product can have a better freshness, minimize the natural taste and color of the fruit, and provide consumers with the most natural green food. Reducing the cost of packaging materials is mainly relative to hot filling, and the cost of packaging materials can be reduced by 1/2 to 1/3, which is favorable to competition in the market. Because it is filling at room temperature, the bottle type is not monotonous as the hot filling bottle must prevent the bottle from being heated and deformed. Enterprises can freely design the bottle type, enhance the company's brand image, and enhance market competitiveness. Aseptic cold filling is more adaptable to the product than hot filling technology. For example, blended tea, milk tea, pure milk, and protein-containing beverages can be produced, but hot filling cannot. The equipment itself has strict disinfection and sterilization procedures and an isolated aseptic filling and sealing environment to ensure the aseptic condition of the product packaging.

Correct implementation of product sterilization, filling equipment, filling environment, empty bottles, caps and other aseptic processing is the key to aseptic cold filling of PET bottles. The entire filling process is operated in an isolation device and its aseptic technique reaches D6 (almost no microorganisms present). All equipment, articles, and even spaces that come into contact with the product are strictly sterilized. According to the characteristics of the product, it is analyzed correctly and accurate equipment requirements are formulated.

Relevant person in charge of the company stated that with the increasing application of PET bottle packaging at home and abroad and the continuous improvement of the people’s living standards, people’s pursuit of beverage flavor tends to be natural and fresh, and aseptic cold filling technology is in the future. Several years will get faster development. As a beverage equipment manufacturer, Lehui Packaging Machinery will always stand at the forefront of the beverage industry, develop high-tech products, fill domestic gaps, and promote the development of China's beverage industry.
