Compatibility with Industry Standard Caps: The PCO finish allows manufacturers to use widely available caps, simplifying supply chain management.
Improved Packaging Performance: The precise fit between preform and cap reduces the chance of leaks and contamination, enhancing product safety.
Sustainability Benefits: The lightweight nature reduces plastic consumption and shipping weight, contributing to environmental goals.
Cost-Effectiveness: High production accuracy reduces defects and waste, saving costs in bottle manufacturing.
Versatility: Suitable for a variety of beverages including carbonated drinks, mineral water, juices, and more.
Applications of PCO PET Preforms
Carbonated Soft Drinks: The primary application, where maintaining carbonation and preventing leaks is critical.
Bottled Water: Both still and sparkling water bottles often use PCO PET preforms for their reliable sealing and durability.
Juice and Flavored Drinks: Offers excellent barrier properties to maintain flavor and freshness.
Other Liquid Foods: Such as iced teas, energy drinks, and dairy-based beverages.
Quality Control and Testing
During production, PCO PET preforms undergo rigorous quality control measures including:
Dimensional Checks: Ensuring neck finish and overall dimensions meet strict tolerances.
Visual Inspection: Checking for surface defects or contaminants.
Material Testing: Assessing molecular weight and intrinsic viscosity for consistent material quality.
Pressure Testing: Verifying the preform's ability to withstand internal pressure after blowing.
These controls ensure that the preforms deliver consistent performance during bottle production and in final use.
