Xtreme Renew
In collaboration with EREMA, the SIPA Xtreme Renew system processes washed flakes of recycled PET into preforms within the same machine, reducing costs, protecting the environment and producing a wide range of food-grade PET.
The advantages:
- 10% lighter PET containers
- Save 30% on energy
- Up to 15% lower TCO compared to conventional recycling
- 60% less carbon dioxide emissions
- 100% sustainable

The Process…
- Decontamination- Improves the quality of the melt and therefore the final product.
- Extrusion– Enters into a high vacuum with a low residual moisture, which cuts extruder length, costs and improves colours.
- Filtering– Dependent on the final application, the resin is filtered through a particular sized mesh. The filter pack also consists of a self-cleaning system to improve longevity.
- Rotary Injection-Compression- Modular design of the wheel with a gentle material treatment and quick format change over.
- Preform Cooling– Consists of a cold air jet on the internal and external preform surfaces. There is also the option to include quality inspection and reject non-compliant preforms, suing 5 optical cameras.
