One can easily call the supermarket a Disneyland for adults.
You would find literally everything you need or did not know you needed at a supermarket. Choices of brands, products, sizes, weights, you name it! And while you find yourself spoilt for choice, there is one thing common with all these offerings and that is the packaging. Each of these products is ready and safe for use because of compressed air.
Compressed Air in Packaging Industry
As online shopping continues to rise, the packaging sector sees an expansion in its industry. Compressed air assumes a pivotal role in the manufacturing and packaging operations across various global sectors. Its applications span from cleansing, aligning, shaping, to sealing a wide array of packaging items.
Compressed Air in Food Industry
Last year, the global food packaging market crossed over US$ 302 billion in market value. Compressed air plays a vital role in safely transporting food items and other products around the factory or to their desired location, without any contamination or deterioration in quality. Compressed air is used to shape and seal cartons and boxes, manufacturing products like PET bottles and thoroughly clean all containers before they can be filled with liquids.
Oil-free compressors are indispensable in the food and beverage industry, ensuring product safety and quality by delivering contaminant-free compressed air. They are utilized for tasks like pneumatic conveying, bottling, and packaging, where maintaining a pristine and hygienic production environment is paramount.
Use of Compressed Air in Pharmaceutical Industry
In the pharma industry, oil-free compresses are used to manufacture products including pills and tablets. These tablets or pills are then safely placed in bottles, after the moisture has been removed, and then sealed airtight- maintaining the highest level of clean and sterile compressed air.
