At CR Beverage’s Yixing and Chengdu plants, Sidel installed three high-speed aseptic complete lines featuring the Aseptic Combi Predis FMa for tea and plum juice
CR Beverage, one of China’s leading bottled water brands, has invested in three of Sidel’s complete high-speed aseptic lines to meet increased consumer demand for better quality, healthier and more eco-friendly packaging for teas, juices and carbonated drinks.
In addition to being the leading water packaging manufacturer in China, CR Beverage is committed to providing consumers with a greater choice of high-quality drinks across its entire beverage portfolio to meet the 4.6 per cent compound annual growth rate predicted by Global Data for 2023-2027.
After more than eight years of collaboration between CR Beverage and Sidel in China and the successful installation of Sidel’s innovative complete-line packaging solution for its big-format water production, CR Beverage once again turned to Sidel to create a unique solution for its aseptic production lines.
At CR Beverage’s Yixing and Chengdu plants, Sidel installed three high-speed aseptic complete lines featuring the Aseptic Combi Predis FMa for tea and plum juice and the Aseptic Combi Predis Fmac for all high- and low-acid products and carbonated drinks with 28 and 38 bottlenecks. The one at its Chengdu plant has four EvoDECO labellers and conveyors. The lines now produce 54,000 bottles per hour (bph) for 450ml format and 27,000 bph for 1L.
