Soft drink bottling

Soft drink bottling lines for carbonated products.

Build a bottling line around the drink, bottle, closure and label format rather than choosing the filler in isolation.

Customer route

Choose the equipment around the drink, pack and output.

A carbonated soft drink bottling line can combine bottle handling, rinsing, counter-pressure filling, capping, labelling, coding and conveyors. The right route depends on whether you are filling PET bottles, glass bottles or a mixed range of formats.

  • PET and glass soft drink lines
  • Filling, capping and labelling support
  • For cola, lemonade, tonic, mixers and sparkling water

Specification notes

Useful points before requesting a quote.

PET bottles

PET lines often use plastic screw caps and need bottle stability around conveyors.

Glass bottles

Glass bottles may use crown, screw or ROPP style closures depending on the product and brand.

Line integration

Conveyors, accumulation and coding should be planned before the equipment is ordered.

Questions to ask

Before specifying this route.

Can a soft drink bottling line fill still and carbonated products?

Some projects can be designed for both, but carbonated filling needs pressure control and closure timing.

Do I need rinsing before filling?

Rinsing or air cleaning may be specified depending on bottle supply, hygiene requirement and production layout.

Can labelling be added later?

Yes, but planning space and conveyor flow early makes later line upgrades easier.
