The addition of a new line will bring the total number of hot-fill lines installed at the Nanjing plant to three.

Sidel’s comprehensive line includes an SBO Heat-Resistant blower with 20 blowing stations, a Sidel Matrix SF700 hot filler, conveyors, labeller and packer.

“As a result of the excellent and reliable performance of this first complete hot-fill line, we were happy to award the project for a similar solution once again to Sidel.”

By installing Sidel’s new hot-fill complete line, the Nanjing Ziquan intends to further increase production capacity of Mizone in PET bottles.

A Nanjing Ziquan management spokesperson said: “The earlier Sidel line had been maintaining an operating efficiency of 95%+ and has even been upgraded recently so that its output speeds for the 600ml bottle format increased from 30,000bph to 34,500bph.
