Redefining Extrusion Blow Molding – Delivering Quality, Efficiency and Sustainability.

For 90 years, Kautex has been engineering high-performance extrusion blow-molding machines that truly make a difference in your production. German engineering, digital intelligence and sustainable design let you produce outstanding hollow parts faster, cleaner and more cost-effective.

Since pioneering the first PVC parison in 1949, Kautex has set the benchmark for innovation in extrusion blow molding technology. Today, our portfolio extends to state-of-the-art, all-electric high-speed production lines designed for maximum efficiency, precision, and sustainability.

Every Kautex series is engineered around a clear concept and optimized for specific application requirements—scalable from single-cavity systems to high-output solutions with up to twenty cavities. Whether producing small-volume containers like eye-drop bottles or large-scale liners, our machines deliver unmatched flexibility and consistency.

Customers benefit from modular configuration options tailored to product design and material requirements. From mono- to CoEx-technology, we provide intelligent process solutions, including automated material feeding, parison cutting, needle blowing, in-line deflashing, post-cooling, and more. This ensures maximum productivity, reduced waste, and seamless integration into your manufacturing environment.

  • Efficiency & sustainability: Up to 30 % energy savings thanks to all-electric drives, innovative servo hydraulic Blue Hydraulic or energy recuperation.
  • Speed & flexibility: Dry cycle times starting at 1.9 s, quick-change systems for molds and colors, plus IntelliGate  integrated post processing modules.
  • Digital-connected: Latest BlowCommand 6 control, ergonomic HMI, DataCap process monitoring, digital twin and interface for digital product passport, data-driven processes.
  • Ergonomics & safety: Quiet operation, handy operation features, barrier-free service doors and virtual training environments enhance operator comfort and plant safety.
