Used bottling lines — what is available

Complete used bottling lines and individual used bottling line machines are regularly available on the second-hand market as beverage producers upgrade capacity, close plants, or transition to different container formats. What is available: complete used bottling lines — a complete set of matched machines (depalletiser, rinser, monoblock filler-capper, labeller, case packer, palletiser) from the same original production line; buying a matched set of machines from one production line is preferable because the machines are sized for the same output speed and have compatible conveyors; complete lines are sold by machinery dealers following factory closures, capacity reductions, or format changeovers; individual used bottling machines — a single machine from a bottling line sold separately; the most commonly available are: rotary monoblock filler-cappers (tribloc); labelling machines (pressure-sensitive or OPP hot-glue); case packers and shrink bundlers; palletisers; used monoblock fillers — the core of a bottling line; the most sought-after used bottling equipment; key specifications: output speed (BPH), filling technology (gravity, flowmeter, isobaric for CSD), number of filling valves, bottle size range, capper head type; used water bottling lines — PET water bottling is the largest category of used bottling line equipment; still water lines (gravity or volumetric fillers) at 5,000–24,000 BPH are the most common size available on the used market; used CSD and beer filling lines — isobaric (counter-pressure) filling lines; these need more careful inspection of filling valve condition and CO₂ system integrity.

Frequently asked questions

What output speed used water bottling line should I buy for a small water brand?

For a start-up or small water brand, a used still water bottling line at 3,000–8,000 BPH (bottles per hour) for 0.5L PET bottles is a practical starting point. This scale corresponds to 3,000–8,000 bottles per hour × 8 hours per shift × 250 working days = 6–16 million bottles per year. At this scale, the line typically consists of a small monoblock filler-capper (12–24 filling valves), a rinser, a pressure-sensitive labeller, and a manual or semi-automatic shrink bundler. Used lines in this size range are widely available and cost-accessible. For larger volumes, 12,000–20,000 BPH lines are available from major brands (Krones, KHS, Sidel) at higher cost.

Can a used still water filling line be converted to fill carbonated beverages?

No — not without major modification. Still water filling lines use gravity or volumetric filling at ambient pressure; carbonated beverage filling requires an isobaric (counter-pressure) filler with a CO₂ gas supply system, pressure-rated product bowl, and CO₂-compatible filling valves. Converting a gravity filler to an isobaric filler is not practical — the filling bowl, valves, and product contact system must be replaced entirely. If you need to fill both still and carbonated products, source a used isobaric filler that can also fill still products in 'still mode' — many isobaric fillers can fill at atmospheric pressure as well as under CO₂ counter-pressure.

What is the typical age of used bottling lines on the market?

Used bottling lines on the market range from 5 to 25+ years old. The optimal age range for a used line purchase is typically 8–15 years: old enough to be significantly cheaper than new; recent enough to have parts available, modern electronics, and manageable obsolescence risk. Machines from the 1990s and early 2000s may have obsolete PLCs (Siemens S5, older Allen-Bradley) for which spare processors are difficult to source — a PLC upgrade is often part of a refurbishment project for older machines. Modern machines (post-2010) typically have Siemens S7 or Rockwell ControlLogix PLCs for which parts are widely available.
