Small device, big revolution

The "Alterna Switch", the solution for filling Alternapak aseptic brick-shaped cartons on Tetra Brik Aseptic machines.

For decades Tetra Pak's Brik machines could only function with original Tetra Pak packaging material due to the patented register control system of the Brik machines. Now, making use of the Alterna Switch technology, Alternapak can offer the market an alternative packaging material that will run smoothly on Tetra Brik machines without infringing the Tetra Pak patent.

Today Alternapak can provide customers with high quality brick-shaped cartons, making use of the Alterna Switch. The Alterna Switch makes it possible to 'switch' over from Tetra Brik to Alternapak cartons and vice versa on the same Tetra Brik Aseptic machine. It is an intelligent plug and play system, easy to attach to an existing machine, 100% safe, and simple to operate.
