SIG Drinksplus

Add value to any beverage

With our SIG Drinksplus solution, you can add pieces of fruit or vegetables and even cereal grains to your beverage products. Consumers enjoy the added flavor and texture – while you can enjoy higher profit margins! You could expand your range with trend-driven products such as beauty tonics, wellness drinks, health beverages, and on-the-go snacks. This way, SIG Drinksplus helps our customers create an innovative and appealing product category positioned between drinks and food.

With the benefit of more than 30 years experience in aseptic particulate filling technology, we can help you develop food concepts with real added value – for you and your consumers – and turn them into successful products. The flexibility of SIG's filling systems is here to help you achieve this.

Stand out in a competitive market by creating more healthy and premium products. Our complete end-to-end solution enables you to create innovative products and fill added-value products, such as premium fruit juices and drinkable milk snacks. Add real and natural food pieces – such as fruit, vegetables, or cereal grains – to your beverages:

  • Chunky product ingredients up to 10%
  • Particulates can be up to 6mm
  • Fibers up to 1x15mm
  • Viscosity can be up to 3,500mPas

SIG Drinksplus builds on our open sleeve filling system and the sealing of the pack above the fill level. This way, we avoid pieces getting stuck in the sealing, which increases products safety and your options to aseptically fill more products in our carton packs. Using agitators in the filling machine makes it possible to fill products with sedimenting or floating particulates. Special valves have been implemented to prevent the product particulates from blocking the product flow. And you can also benefit from the flexibility of SIG Aseptic filling machines and select the package volume that best matches the product concept and use occasion.
