Plastipak Packaging to showcase plastic packaging innovation at BrauBeviale

Plastipak Packaging (formerly APPE), one of the world leaders in rigid plastic innovation with over 30 years’ experience, is showcasing its PET technology for the beverage industry on Stand 125 in Hall 4 at BrauBeviale 2015, November 10-12.

Plastipak acquired APPE on July 1 this year, creating a single European entity comprising 14 production plants in 12 different countries. The move has augmented Plastipak’s position in Europe, providing a solid platform for further growth and complements Plastipak’s other regional businesses in North America, South America, as well as the recent expansion in to China.

With an award-winning range of rigid plastic preforms, bottles and wide-neck containers, Plastipak leads the way in beverage packaging innovation, producing standard and custom bottle designs with various closure options, including crown caps, aluminium or plastic wine closures and screw-caps.

To make sure products reach the consumer in perfect condition, without compromising taste, quality or appearance, Plastipak has developed a range of revolutionary active and passive barrier solutions. Barrier technologies can extend product shelf-life by protecting sensitive beverages from the effects of UV light, oxygen ingress and/or CO2 egress.

As a leading player in the European PET preform, bottle and container market, Plastipak will launch a new product, specifically aimed at the beer beverage market, at BrauBeviale.

Visitors and media representatives are invited to visit the stand to find out more about this new addition to the Plastipak’s range of PET products. Representatives will be on hand to discuss the finer details.
