THE world's lightest 900 ml PET bottle has been unveiled by Sidel. Working with Brazilian oil producer Algar Agro, Sidel reduced the weight of the bottle by 22% to 14g, as per pre.com. The resulting lightweighting has cut the cost of production, packaging and transportation of the finished article, and lowered the total cost of ownership of the production equipment. Sidel said it was chosen as the preferred supplier because of its experience and expertise, "as well as the actual proposals presented to Algar Agro during the initial discussions to lightweight the bottle".
