Sidel X-LITE Still 500 mL PET bottle

Weighing 6.5 g with a height of 195 mm, Sidel’s X-LITE Still is a lightweight 500 mL PET bottle for non-pressurised still water, offering high performance at high production speeds. The bottle is complemented by a Novembal Novaqua RightCAP26 closure.

Sidel X-LITE Still integrates the StarLITE Still base solution, already implemented worldwide due to its stability and stress resistance through the value chain. Energy savings can be made through a reduction in blowing pressure and heating power, with no compromises on packaging performance. This base design can be adapted to all Sidel blowing platforms and applied to existing production lines.

The product has been optimised by the company’s engineers for the Sidel Super Combi, a solution integrating five process steps: preform feeding, blowing, labelling, filling/capping and cap feeding. Due to its light weight, the bottle reduces the consumption of PET resin compared with heavier bottles.
