PET bottles are part of our everyday life. But what does it take to manufacture them reliably at scale? While most bottles are produced under less critical conditions, hot‑fill PET processes are a particularly demanding case, combining high temperatures, high output and challenging material behavior. Production stability starts at the surface – its quality is the foundation for precision and stability in high‑volume production. Together with specialist Roeders GmbH - Blow Moulds, we address these challenging production conditions. At the critical interface, surface technology makes the difference. DLC‑coated blow molds with BALINIT® DYLYN PRO reduce friction, prevent sticking and help keep production running reliably. High quality. Less downtime. More output. Another strong example of how Oerlikon’s technology supports reliable production in everyday applications.
