As sustainability becomes a top priority in industrial operations, companies across the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic sectors are rethinking every part of their packaging lines. One overlooked but impactful area is the bottle unscrambling process. Advanced automatic bottle unscramblers are playing a key role in reducing waste, energy use, and material overconsumption—making sustainability and efficiency go hand in hand.

How Bottle Unscramblers Contribute to Sustainability

  • Energy-Efficient Drives and Low Consumption

Modern centrifugal bottle unscramblers and robotic bottle unscramblers are equipped with energy-efficient motors and optimized motion paths, lowering electricity use without sacrificing performance.

POSIMAT integrates an exclusive Air Saving System into its unscramblers, reducing compressed air consumption by up to 50%. Since air generation is one of the most energy-intensive processes in packaging plants, this feature leads to a significant drop in overall power usage and operating costs.

  • Reduced Bottle Waste

By ensuring gentle handling and precise orientation, unscramblers help avoid deformation and rejected containers, reducing scrap and saving raw material.

  • Continuous Operation = Less Standby Energy

Thanks to their high reliability and minimal maintenance requirements, POSIMAT machines help maintain continuous flow in packaging lines. Avoiding stoppages also avoids the energy drain of downstream equipment running in idle mode—an often underestimated factor in plant energy efficiency.

  • Recyclable and Lightweight-Compatible

New generation unscramblers handle lightweight PET and HDPE bottles, supporting the industry shift toward eco-friendly packaging.

Whether based in the USA, Europe, Asia, or elsewhere, manufacturers can rely on POSIMAT as a trusted partner in packaging automation. With advanced unscrambling technologies and complementary systems tailored for the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, motor oil, and food and beverage sectors, POSIMAT delivers eco-efficient solutions that boost both performance and sustainability.

Sustainability and high-speed automation are no longer at odds. Discover how POSIMAT’s eco-conscious unscramblers, including the unique Air Saving System, can future-proof your packaging line while cutting operational emissions.
