Moulds for Better Shelf Life of PET Bottles

Before we talk about Shelf Life of  PET Bottles  let us first understand what does the term shelf life means. Shelf life is the duration of time period measured from the date of manufacture, that a good is likely to endure within its accepted product specification while stocked under defined conditions. Shelf life is characteristically stated in units of months, i.e. 12 months, 24 months, up to a limit of 60 months. The expression “shelf life” and “expiry date” is frequently interchangeably made use of in the industry, as both the terms reflect the same notion: there is a duration of time period where a good is stable and harmless for use. Shelf life/expiry dates suggests the time where a good will work both securely and efficiently. This is the reason why “shelf life testing” is also known as “stability testing”. The total amount of time a product can remain stable under specific environmental circumstances, equates to its shelf life. Now let us understand what shelf ...

Import Quality Preform Moulds from India

PET, an acronym for polyethylene terephthalate, is a synthetic resin of thermoplastic polymer, while a preform is an intermediate product that is ultimately blown up into containers or bottles. Preforms are manufactured from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and so they are called "PET Preforms." Over centuries, PET preform moulds have been manufactured in a particular manner. However, with modern plastic moulding materials, there has been a great advancement in the way they are manufactured now. The most recent mass production PET preform moulding machinery has been developed, and the latest PET preform moulds in steel and alloys have been introduced to withstand severe processes. Accuracy is the key requirement in present manufacturing, and PET preform plastics are manufactured by steadily mounting a high standard of precision, which requires modern machine tool applications and methods. While there are several PET blow mould manufacturers and suppliers all over the globe...
