Interview with SIPA's innovation: Preform technology for recycled PET in the Sustainability Awards 2025 shortlist
In the realm of sustainable packaging solutions, SIPA's XFORM RENEW technology has made a significant impact. This innovative approach to recycling PET has been nominated for the Commercialized Machinery category at the 2025 Sustainability Awards, due to its ability to convert waste into high-quality preforms, drastically reducing environmental impact.
XFORM RENEW delivers superior preform aesthetics and clarity, thanks to its simplified thermal history. One of the key features of this technology is the elimination of the pelletizing stage in PET recycling, simplifying the process. This simplification also leads to a reduction in CO2 emissions by up to 30%.
The XFORM RENEW process has been independently verified to have a 79% reduction in global warming potential. Moreover, it lowers the total cost of ownership by up to 35% due to reduced energy use, cheaper flake material, and lower logistics costs.
SIPA's partnership with EREMA ensures the use of cutting-edge and reliable recycling processes in the XFORM Renew system. This partnership is set to be showcased at the installation of these industrial systems at customer facilities for large-scale production of preforms for the beverage market.
The Sustainability Awards 2025 will be announced at the Sustainable Packaging Summit in Utrecht on 10-12 November. This summit serves as a platform for policymakers, NGOs, recyclers, and investors to discuss sustainable packaging solutions and collaborate on opportunities for sustainable transformation.
The Sustainable Packaging Summit also brings together leaders from various sectors to remove barriers for sustainable transformation. It focuses on sustainable transformation in the packaging industry and mobilizes leaders from the FMCG value chain to participate.

XFORM RENEW has received significant positive reception from the market due to its innovative approach. It is a key enabler of the circular economy, providing a practical, scalable path to meet ambitious sustainability goals.
The winners of the Sustainability Awards 2025 will be announced during the summit, and it will be exciting to see if SIPA's XFORM RENEW technology takes home the prize. Regardless of the outcome, the technology's impact on the packaging industry and the environment is undeniable.
