DenEast, a leading contract manufacturing service provider in Vietnam, held the groundbreaking of its new aseptic nutrition beverage plant in Ho Chi Minh City, where a complete aseptic PET line by Sidel, a provider of packaging solutions for the food and beverage industry, will be installed.
DenEast offers aseptic beverage solutions with a 360-degree service proposition to brand owners in Vietnam and across Southeast Asia. Its comprehensive capabilities include multiproduct manufacturing, innovative packaging, raw material sourcing, warehousing, beverage processing, research and development, and vendor managed inventory.
Operating with advanced aseptic processing technology, DenEast’s advanced facility, located 45 km outside Ho Chi Minh City, produces up to one million liters of beverages per week.
Globally, PET-packaged sensitive beverages are expanding, with nutrition products, plant-based drinks, milk, and flavored milk all showing steady growth. As beverage trends evolve, the increasing demand for diverse and innovative packaging solutions presents new opportunities for brands in the Southeast Asia Pacific (SEAP) region.
Looking to tap into these market trends, Johan Boden, CEO at DenEast comments, “We are innovators at our core, continuously seeking solutions to diversify our manufacturing capabilities and explore new business opportunities, reinforcing our commitment to growth and industry leadership. In order to meet growing demands for healthy nutrition products in Vietnam and across the SEAP region, we decided to invest in a new complete aseptic processing and PET packaging line from Sidel.”
Sidel’s complete aseptic PET line
DenEast’s new full production line, features Sidel’s Aseptic Combi Predis, that is designed to meet FDA standards, meeting highest customer requirements and ensuring the highest levels of product quality and safety.
Flexibility is a key feature of the line, allowing for multipack packaging in both cartons and shrink film to cater to various retail channels. This adaptability ensures that products can efficiently reach different market segments.
Sidel’s strong local presence in Vietnam played a crucial role in the selection of this solution, relying on essential technical assistance and maintenance, and ensuring optimal operational efficiency.
The production line will accommodate a range of sizes from 150ml to 1500ml, supporting a wide range of nutritional dairy and plant based products. DenEast celebrated the groundbreaking of the new plant earlier this year on 28 March 2025.
