Blow mould cost varies widely depending on process type, cavity count, mould material, and container geometry. For one-step ISBM production \u2014 used for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, food, and beverage PET and PP containers \u2014 the mould investment covers three components: the preform mould, the blow mould, and the stretch rod. Understanding what drives the cost of each component is essential before committing to in-house container production.<\/p>\n

The Three Components of an ISBM Mould Set<\/h2>\n

Preform mould<\/strong> \u2014 the most complex component; injection-moulds the preform body, base, and neck thread. Includes hot runner, cooling channels, and neck splits. The preform mould is the largest single cost in the set.<\/p>\n

Blow mould<\/strong> \u2014 defines the bottle\u2019s final external geometry, surface texture, and base shape. Includes a cooling circuit to remove heat from the blown container. Material selection (aluminium, BeCu, or steel) determines both cost and mould life.<\/p>\n

Stretch rod<\/strong> \u2014 the mechanical rod that extends the preform axially at the blow station. Length and tip geometry are matched to the specific preform and bottle dimensions. Lower cost than the moulds but must be ordered with them.<\/p>\n
