New PET blow moulding plant for Lifocolor France
Fast, accurate and application-specific colour sampling for PET packaging
Lifocolor France is reaching an important milestone: with the installation of a modern PET blow-moulding machine, our laboratory significantly expands its capabilities for PET colour development. The new equipment enables us to reproduce colour concepts directly on real PET bottles – quickly, accurately and under practical conditions. This investment strengthens our service offering for packaging manufacturers, bottle blowers and brands that rely on precise colour studies for their PET products.
What the New PET Blow-Moulding Machine Can Do
The new high-performance single-stage injection stretch blow moulding machine, which can produce PET bottles and containers in a wide range of shapes and volumes, is ideal for sampling, prototyping and small test series. It enables the production of bottles in different designs – round, oval, with a wide neck or for special applications – in laboratory quality and delivers realistic, true-to-scale colour samples that demonstrate how a colour tone will look in a finished PET product.
With this new PET blow-moulding capability, Lifocolor France addresses the needs of:
- PET packaging manufacturers and bottle blowers
- Brand owners in food, beverage, cosmetics and care, medical & pharma
- Product designers and developers requiring reliable colour evaluation before series production
- Companies that prioritise fast sampling, colour stability and process safety
By making colours visible directly in PET, customers gain a highly reliable basis for decision-making in colour selection, visual design and brand appearance. This is especially valuable for regulated industries such as food, cosmetics or personal care.
Fully Prepared for Sensitive Applications
Lifocolor SAS in France holds extensive regulatory expertise, including successful ISO 22000 certification. This qualifies us to develop masterbatches for sensitive applications such as food-contact or cosmetic packaging. In combination with our rapid sampling capabilities – with prototype bottles available within a few days and production colours within five working days – we provide a strong and efficient service package that supports fast development cycles.
More Service. More Speed. More Colour.
With the new PET blow-moulding machine, we significantly strengthen our footprint in the PET sector:
- Realistic PET colour samples produced in-house
- Fast prototyping within just a few days
