Sidel Achieves Two Sustainability Recognitions At The SEAL Awards 2026
Sidel has won in two categories at the SEAL (Sustainability, Environmental Achievement and Leadership) Business Sustainability Awards 2026. The first was given to the EvoBLOW Laser, a breakthrough for packaging in PET which received the Sustainable Innovation Award, and the second for the latest tunnel pasteurizer, SWING Evo, which has been recognised for the Sustainable Product Award. Both highlight Sidel’s game-changing solutions as they support beverage producers in contributing to a more sustainable future.
Launched in 2017, the awards “celebrate the companies and leaders across the globe that make measurable contributions to sustainability and develop innovative initiatives that will positively impact the environment for centuries to come”. Previous winners include Apple, IKEA and Adidas.
Sidel wins the Sustainable Innovation Award for its EvoBLOW Laser
The EvoBLOW Laser is a breakthrough for performance and sustainability. It significantly reduces downtime, improves PET material distribution and control along the bottle so you can lower PET use, offers energy savings, lowers maintenance, and reduces preform waste by around 50% versus comparable halogen solutions. Sidel’s EvoBLOW Laser also supports an increased and more efficient use of recycled PET (rPET), since it is less sensitive to material property variations. When processes or heating settings do need to be adapted, these adaptations are immediate with the EvoBLOW Laser, ensuring consistent quality from the first bottle to the last.
“Sidel’s new EvoBLOW Laser represents what’s possible when performance and sustainability move forward together”, said Alexandre Huet, Product Manager for Blowing at Sidel. “This award is meaningful, as it recognises the impact of Sidel’s work, lighter but stronger packaging, lower electricity use, reduced waste and easier use of rPET. The EvoBLOW Laser is proof that breakthrough innovation can deliver real, immediate benefits for both producers and the planet.”
Sidel achieves the Sustainable Product Award for its new tunnel pasteurizer, SWING Evo
Sidel’s SWING Evo delivers significant sustainability advantages for non-alcoholic beverages and beer producers. Its counterflow configuration and dedicated heat and water circuits minimise heat dispersion and eliminate unnecessary circulation between tanks. Each module is independently controlled, allowing the system to adapt precisely to production needs.
Sidel’s SWING Evo pasteurizer can be equipped with PRINCE-E, the most advanced pasteurization control system. PRINCE-E ensures a high-precision bactericidal effect while guaranteeing the absence of under-pasteurization due to a predictive approach, with the software also incorporating new features to further reduce energy and cooling water consumption, offering enhanced reliability from fully automated operations.
The SEAL Sustainable Innovation Award reinforces Sidel’s long-standing commitment to driving the packaging industry toward a more resource‑efficient future. As Sidel continues to push sustainability boundaries, these recognitions mark an important milestone on the path toward cleaner, smarter and greener packaging solutions for the future.
