About Used Stretch Blow Molding Machines
Stretch blow molding machines (also known as stretch blow moulding machines) produce biaxially oriented PET bottles by stretching preforms both axially and radially during the blowing process. This biaxial orientation improves clarity, strength, and barrier properties — making stretch blow molding the standard process for PET water bottles, carbonated beverage bottles, and food containers.
Stretch blow moulders are available in single-stage (integrated injection and blow molding) and two-stage (separate preform injection and reheat-stretch-blow) configurations. Two-stage systems handle higher volumes and allow preforms to be purchased separately, while single-stage injection stretch blow molding machines offer more flexibility for smaller runs.
Meadoworks stocks used stretch blow molding machines from Sidel, Krones, SIPA, Nissei ASB, Aoki, SMI, and KHS. Contact us at 800-323-0307.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is stretch blow molding?
Stretch blow molding (SBM) produces biaxially oriented bottles by stretching a heated preform both lengthwise (with a stretch rod) and outward (with air pressure). This dual orientation improves clarity, strength, and gas barrier properties. It's the standard process for PET bottles used in water, carbonated beverages, and food packaging.
How much does a used stretch blow molding machine cost?
Used stretch blow moulding machine prices range from $50,000 for small single-stage machines to $500,000+ for high-speed two-stage rotary systems. Sidel and Krones machines for high-volume PET bottling command the highest prices. Contact Meadoworks at 800-323-0307 for stretch blow moulder pricing.
