Plastic Container
About us
Our story, which began over 50 years ago, has its beginnings in the SIDE electronics division, which was related to the plastic container industry from the beginning.
Our broad knowledge of the industry and the market allowed us to create the custom-made range of plastic container blowers that we offer to our clients today, based on quality and maximum efficiency in the manufacture of packaging using PET preforms. With over 50 years of experience in the industry, we can trust our detailed knowledge of the latest technological innovations, uses and applications of PET when developing projects in the future.
