Returnable PET for sensitive beverages
Krones/Alpla
Krones and Alpla developed a returnable PET container
(38 mm bottle-neck) that provides an optimal environment
for sensitive ESL (Extended Shelf Life) products such as juice
and milk in the cold chain. The partners dedicated particular
attention to the container cleaning process: With the
right combination of parameters – especially lye concentration,
temperature, additive, and mechanical impact – temperatures
around 60 °C are sufficient to reliably remove
even dried protein, fat, and starch contamination from the
containers. Microbiologically, PET bottles that had gone
through 25 cycles could not be distinguished from new
ones.
Returnable PET containers passed the test, showing that they are suitable for juices and dairy products in the cold chain
