FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
September 9, 2022

Brampton, Ontario, Canada: StackTeck Systems Ltd., a global manufacturer of multi-cavity, high-volume production molds for packaging, thinwall packaging, closures, PET preforms, medical, and mold bases, will be participating as an exhibitor for the first time ever at the drinktec show that is taking place in Munich, Germany from September 12^th to September 16^th.

Static displays in StackTeck Booth No. 221 in Hall C5 will feature the latest technologies for beverage preform and cap molds with plastic parts and steel components on display. A highlight for show attendees will be the display of the latest design of a PiCOOL^TMplate right at the StackTeck booth. PiCOOL^TM is one of StackTeck’s patented technologies that has been engineered to enhance the productivity of PET preform molding. Unique geometries in PiCOOL^TMcreate spiral air flow streams, resulting in turbulent and uniform cooling along the entire interior surface of the preform. Engineering design and modeling expertise have been combined with practical research and extensive production testing resulting in a new standard for post-mold cooling of preforms.

In PET, we now have the unique opportunity to draw on the experience of more than 50 years of innovation in hot runners and molds.
