Sidel unveiled the EvoBLOW Laser at Drinktec 2025, a state-of-the-art laser technology that will transform the food and beverage industry's use of lightweight PET and rPET bottles. By using less material while maintaining structural integrity, this innovation seeks to improve packaging sustainability.

The EvoBLOW Laser achieves optimal lightweighting by using precision laser technology to remove material from specific areas of the bottle. This procedure preserves the strength and functionality of the bottle while reducing the amount of plastic used. The EvoBLOW Laser ensures that the structural integrity of the bottle is maintained, even with reduced material, by precisely identifying areas for material reduction.

Facilitating the use of recycled PET (rPET) in packaging is one of EvoBLOW Laser's unique features, as rPET can be used to produce lighter, thinner bottles. Thanks to laser technology, it is a more environmentally friendly option than virgin PET. The industry's increasing focus on the circular economy and reducing plastic waste aligns with this development.

Sidel's commitment to sustainability is further demonstrated through the integration of the EvoBLOW Laser with their comprehensive packaging solutions. The technology seamlessly integrates with existing production lines, enabling manufacturers to adopt sustainable practices without requiring significant operational overhauls. This approach ensures that the transition to more sustainable packaging is both efficient and cost-effective.

In summary, Sidel's EvoBLOW Laser represents a significant leap forward in sustainable packaging technology. By combining precision laser technology with the use of rPET, Sidel is paving the way for a more sustainable future in the food and beverage packaging industry. The EvoBLOW Laser not only reduces material usage but also supports the industry's shift towards more sustainable and circular packaging solutions.
