PET and Penta ‘Ps’ Propel Market Economy

by Ashish Tools Mould Manufacturer in india
Management pundits have defined the market economy as one in which the consumer is influenced by certain five aspects. Interestingly, all these five specific terms commence with the letter ‘P’ and they are – Product, Packing, Pricing, Placement and Promotion.

Indeed, these vital penta ‘Ps’ have an additional ‘P’ which is related to ‘Packing’ and that happens to be PET (polyethylene terephthalate). It is a polymer formulation, the prime base material based on which the majority of the FMCG are packed.

Amazingly, the effective role of PET in packaging the wide range of consumer durables and numerous other products depends on another ‘P’. And that is the Preform Mould with which every bottle or jar is moulded to pack the ultimate product.

There is no second opinion that the technology of PET preform mould inserts has revolutionised the concept and applications of packaging.

The most favourable assets of PET containers are the weight whereby drastic reduction in transportation is the result, barrier ratings of being leak-proof and above all enhanced shelf quality in attractive shapes and colours.

All these directly and indirectly, depend on the quality of preform moulds with which the bottles and jars are made to ultimately pack the product.

PET containers have literally eclipsed glass, ceramics, tin and aluminium as the base of packaging. Evident are the thousands of products of daily and occasional use like – 
Filtered and Mineral Water
Aerated Beverages, Liquors, Spirits, Syrups, Squashes
Dairy produce like flavoured milk, cream et al
Jams, Ketchups, Marmalades
Edible Oils
Personal Care items – Shampoo, Lotions, Deodorants, Hair oils and tonics, Detergents, etc.
Pharmaceutical formulations and medicines
Industrial and non-edible oils
Pesticides and Insecticides

A prominent Indian manufacturer of these moulds has mastered the art of designing and developing them in the range of 6 to 720 grams and having neck sizes between 12 and 150 millimetres with cavitations ratings to the extent of 72.

This particular Delhi NCR-based company has carved out a name for quality products and services at home as well as abroad. These moulds have conformed to prescribed quality parameters and ISO specifications covering:

Physical Testing
Colour
Wall Thickness Test
Neck Finish Test
Visual and Automatic Control
Perpendicularity Test
Intrinsic Viscosity (IV)
Acetaldehyde (AA)

Further, highlighting the factor of Productivity, this company has clarified that its trump card is the principle of standard interchangeable mould components.

As for the end-user, it is based on fast cycle times and high efficiency levels apart from the design of the moulds that enables excellent concentricity between core and cavity for minimum wall thickness variation.

In early February, the PRNewswire had released a supplementary report from Dublin that was aptly titled ‘India Recycling PET Market Outlook to 2019 - Growth Led by Inclining PET Bottle Availability and Production Capacity’. 

This comprehensive analysis noted that more than 90% of PET is consumed in food packaging with drinks/beverages forming almost 80% of the food packaging segment.

Since drinks and beverages are consumed mostly in residential houses, railway stations, restaurants, entertainment venues, airports and other public places, the report reiterated the importance of organised collection and recycling of post-consumer PET bottles.
