27 Aug 2018 --- The Sidel StarLite family of bottle base solutions is expanding with the StarLite UltraLight for Carbonated Soft Drinks (CSD) which offers an even lighter bottle than existing options on the market. The new UltraLight CSD base design significantly decreases the amount of raw material needed to produce PET bottles. Thereby, the bottle offers hard discount chains the opportunity to release more affordable carbonated beverages in PET bottles, while strengthening their competitiveness and productivity without hampering the product quality consumers have become to expect, Sidel explains.
