AQua Vera renews Sidel partnership with new complete PET packaging line
Monday, 11 November, 2024, 08 : 00 AM [IST]
Italy
AQua Vera S.p.A., is an Italian household name that specialises in water bottling and, via its subsidiary s.i.con. s.r.l., a manufacturer of preforms and caps. In 2020, the company acquired the well-known brand ‘Vera’ from Nestlé; in Italian, ‘vera’ translates to ‘real’ highlighting the top-quality water bottled.

The water manufacturer has three plants in Italy: the two owned by AQua Vera are based in Castrocielo, in Frosinone, near Rome, and Santo Stefano di Quisquina, in Agrigento, Sicily. The third plant, in San Giorgio in Bosco, Padova, is currently operating via a co-packing contract with Sanpellegrino until its own plant is ready in 2026. Its signature packaging, recognisable by European consumers, won two packaging ‘Oscars’ in 1991 and 1998.

In 2024, it chose a completely new turnkey bottling line from Sidel to increase the existing production capacity of its high-quality still water in PET bottles, mainly in 0.5L format as well as 25cl and 1L, which runs up to 20,000 bottles per hour.

Collaborative and reliable partnership
Sidel has built a strong relationship with the company over the last decade and delivered excellent results on previous projects – a deciding factor in this latest plan.

Fabrizio Quagliuolo, CEO of AQua Vera, said, “We appreciate Sidel’s collaborative attitude towards the successful delivery of each of our projects. The teams at Sidel are always on hand to support us, even when we’re facing issues in other areas not directly related to the manufacturer’s equipment.”  

At the early stages of this turnkey line project, the company designed a solution to maximise production line operability, ergonomics and accessibility required by it while also ensuring the best raw material storage and management. It was also important that the final solution optimised the use of precious resources – water, energy and air consumption.

Quagliuolo added, “Sidel provided the right design layout with user-friendly operations at its heart, while ensuring it remained cost-effective. Similarly, Sidel has taken overall responsibility for project management of the line to ensure its efficiency and best performance.”
