The amazing story of a PET bottle mould

The journey of a PET bottle begins in the mind of an entrepreneur who wishes to cater to the ever-growing beverage market, pharma industry or home care product industry by introducing a new product. The idea consists of the shape, size, product application and target customer. This idea is translated into a PET bottle by AwantiPolymoulds, the leading PET bottle mould manufacturer based in Pune.

Awanti is an end-to-end solutions provider to PET blow moulds for a wide variety of product applications and catering beverage companies in India and abroad.Awanti is a one-stop shop for converting an idea into a bottle, starting with bottle designing to mould manufacturing to mould and bottle testing.

Step 1– Bottle Designing

Understanding the customer’s requirements and translating them into a feasible bottle shape is what Awanti’s design team specializes in. Aspects like blow-ability, strength and stability are taken into consideration before finalising the bottle design.

Step 2- Mould manufacturing

Understanding the technical specifications of the customer’s blowing equipment is of paramount importance before proceeding with mould designing and manufacturing. High-grade raw material, a well-defined and sequential machining process and stringent quality checks at every stage are what goes into each mould manufactured at Awanti.

Step 3- Mould testing and bottle testing

As per requirement, the mould is tested on in-house blowing equipment and the bottles are put through internationally defined quality tests like bottle burst, stress crack, top load and thermal testing among many others.

The result:

Each mould is capable of producing millions of bottles having consistent quality for years together, leading to ultimate customer delight and repeat orders! Awanti is humbled to be associated as approved vendors for global beverage giants like Coca-Cola and Pepsi and Indian leaders like Parle and Bisleri.

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 ...

Manufacturing of rotary-blowing moulds for a global soft-drink company across India

Project duration: 8 months Project scope: – Technical and aesthetic design of a carbonated drink bottle, based on inputs from the customer – Testing of pilot mould and bottle samples as per international standards – Manufacturing of moulds for different rotary blowing machines (> 50 moulds) Project synopsis: The objective of this project was to design a common bottle for different flavours of carbonated drinks and manufacture moulds for six franchise-bottling operations of a global beverage brand in India. This was what we call a “full scale project”, which starts with designing the bottle, followed by pilot mould trials and ends with the manufacturing of commercial moulds for each franchise. Bottle designing Based on the customer inputs like product application, pack-size and perform weights, we initiated the process of designing the bottle With our in-house team of design engineers using state-of-the-art 3D modelling soft-wares, we gave the customer multiple design options, ...

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...
