The key components at a glance
Benefits to you
Triple protection
The all-round treatment with gaseous H2O2 sterilises the entire preform surface at once: Inside, outside and in the neck area.
Fully-automatic change-over
Handling parts change-over at the filler and the capper can be performed up to a defined output without any manual interference.
Gentle preform treatment
The sterilisation of the preforms hardly leaves any residues: This is because the surface enlarges by many times and the residues of the sterilisation medium are diluted accordingly.
Pinpoint production
Filling to the last drop: The system uses the remaining product quantity in order to calculate exactly how many more PET containers and caps are still to be sterilised.
Proof of safety
The concept of the Contipure AseptBloc has FDA certification and is already in practical use multiple times.
Microbiological safety
The system does not consume any water during operation. Therefore, there is no living space at all for microbiological organisms.
High availability
The entire block is in production for 168 hours non-stop. Depending on the product, it is cleaned and sterilised after 90 minutes or two and a half hours and can be used again. Intermediate cleaning after manual interventions also only takes 30 minutes.
