Ultrahygienic block for aseptic filling
When handling sensitive beverages, ensuring microbiological safety and quick production is crucial; this solution offers rapid aseptic filling, sterilizing both the product and containers efficiently, minimizing downtime and enhancing production reliability.

Sterilizes, Blows, Moulds, Fills, and Caps PET Containers
The Contipure Bloc P from Krones is an advanced aseptic filling solution designed for high-volume production facilities specializing in sensitive products. This system integrates seamlessly with PET bottling lines due to its contiguous preform sterilization, blow molding, and capping capabilities. Its preform sterilization module employs gaseous hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) for comprehensive internal and external sterilization of containers, ensuring microbiological safety for products like lactose-free milk, juices, and plant-based beverages. With the capacity to fill up to 72,000 containers per hour, the system supports flexible production, handling both standard and lightweight PET containers with ease. Automation is key, with servo-controlled operations and optional tool-free quick-change capabilities that minimize downtime. The inclusion of a cap sterilization module ensures each cap’s integrity, utilizing ionized air and H₂O₂ without causing deformation. Energy efficiency is optimized through features like infrared ovens with low dead spaces and parabolic mirrors. Compatible with a wide range of liquid products, from carbonated soft drinks to protein-infused water, the Contipure Bloc P is ideal for manufacturers prioritizing product safety, efficiency, and flexibility. It offers robust support for cleaning and maintenance through efficient CIP systems, ensuring rapid and effective sanitation cycles to maximize uptime.
