24 IV 2015 - PET bottle from 11-litre to 5-gallon

One of our customers asked us to work on its bottles portfolio. To 5-gallon size, we added a new mould format: an 11-litre bottle for the home market.

This bottle is designed to work with our RSBM programme:

• same production line
• same preform format
• same side handle
• one mould by bottle (so two)

This bottle is designed for a better logistic:

• fully compatible with standard pallets (18 bottles layer on EURO pallet)
• high bottle/water density per pallet (+139%/+26% compared to 5-gallon bottles in classic crates)

I must add this bottle looks great specially on the slim coolers and table top-coolers, it is the ideal bottle for the home market.
