SG Moulding Solutions provides UK-based PET blow moulding machine supply and plastic packaging consultancy, supporting manufacturers across the beverage, food, dairy, personal care, chemical, and household products sectors.
As the UK representative for FlexBlow, and led by Simon Girdlestone with over 30 years’ experience in plastic packaging, SG Moulding Solutions offers a consultancy-led approach to PET bottle production—helping businesses select, specify, and implement the right technology for their commercial and operational goals.
Unlike traditional machinery agents, SG Moulding Solutions operates as an independent plastic packaging consultancy. Every FlexBlow project is assessed holistically, ensuring that machine specification, bottle design, blow mould tooling, preforms, and downstream integration are aligned from day one.
This approach is particularly valuable for UK manufacturers looking to:
FlexBlow manufactures what is widely regarded as the most flexible PET two-stage blow moulding machine available in the UK market. Designed for short runs, high SKU counts, and changing retailer requirements, FlexBlow systems enable bottle-to-bottle changeovers in as little as 20 minutes, dramatically reducing downtime and increasing asset utilisation.
Through SG Moulding Solutions’ consultancy-led engagement, FlexBlow is not simply supplied—it is engineered into your operation, ensuring that:
The result is a lower-risk, faster-to-value PET bottle production solution.
FlexBlow offers a complete, end-to-end PET packaging capability, including:
By combining these elements under one technically aligned solution, UK manufacturers benefit from faster time-to-market, improved process stability, and long-term production flexibility.
FlexBlow solutions are particularly well suited to Beverage, Food and Dairy manufacturers, where hygiene, traceability, and compliance are critical. FlexBlow operates in line with BRC-accredited manufacturing standards, giving confidence to UK producers supplying major retailers and global brands.
The same flexibility and robustness make FlexBlow an ideal choice for Personal Care, Chemical, and Household product manufacturers, where frequent format changes and reliable integration are essential. FlexBlow equipment is designed to integrate directly into in-house filling and packaging lines, making it ideal for companies seeking to internalise bottle production while maintaining quality and efficiency.
Every FlexBlow project in the UK is supported directly by Simon Girdlestone, who brings over three decades of hands-on experience in plastic packaging, capital equipment, and process optimisation.
This ensures customers benefit from:
A two-stage PET blow moulding machine uses separately produced PET preforms, which are reheated and blown into bottles. This offers greater flexibility, higher bottle quality, and easier integration with in-house filling lines compared to single-stage systems.
FlexBlow machines are designed for rapid bottle-to-bottle changeovers—often as little as 20 minutes—making them ideal for UK manufacturers running multiple SKUs, private-label products, or short production runs.
