Tetra Pak packaging solutions portfolio

Tetra Pak has announced three additions to its packaging solutions portfolio: Tetra Evero Aseptic One-Step Opening (OSO); TBA/19 Retrofitability Kit for Tetra Brik Aseptic 200 and 250 Edge; and the Tetra Pak A3/Speed filling machine for Tetra Prisma Aseptic for portion packs.

The company claims its One-Step Opening on the Tetra Every Aseptic is the world’s first aseptic carton bottle for ambient white milk. The OSO offers double safety features, with a tamper-evident ring and a neck membrane that is removed by twisting the cap. In addition to these safety features, the Tetra Evero Aseptic with OSO enables customers to offer consumers a carton bottle that is easy to open, handle and pour.

The TBA/19 Retrofitability Kit allows customers to transform the package shape and base area on the same machine platform. Customers with the TBA/19 filling machine for 200 Slim, 250 Base and 125 Slim be able to retrofit their existing filling lines, enabling them to produce the new Tetra Brik Aseptic 200 and 250 Edge.

For those with this machine who are not yet ready to invest in the Tetra Pak A3/Compact Flex filling machine, this solution gives them the option of producing these packages for a fraction of the cost. In addition, the retrofitability kit takes less time to install than a new machine, which means products get to market faster.

The Tetra Pak A3/Speed filling machine is available for Tetra Prisma Aseptic 200 and 250 portion packs. The Tetra Pak A3/Speed iLine is claimed to be the fastest line available from Tetra Pak, with a maximum production capacity of 24,000 portion packs/h.
