Vacuum Barrier Systems showcased its liquid nitrogen dosing technology, used across water, juice, wine and beverage lines. The system pressurises PET bottles by adding a controlled LN₂ drop before capping, allowing manufacturers to reduce resin usage while maintaining structural strength and stackability.

Meenal Potnis, internal sales, explained that in addition to improving rigidity, LN₂ dosing helps extend product shelf life. As the nitrogen evaporates instantly on contact, it displaces oxygen from the headspace, reducing oxidation in oxygen-sensitive products such as juices. The solution is food-grade and can be integrated into existing or new filling lines, with retrofittable units suitable for water and canning operations.

The company reported growing awareness of LN₂ technology in India over the past six to seven years and expects strong interest at the show as beverage manufacturers look for ways to improve packaging efficiency and reduce material consumption.
