Abstract

A device for reducing the microbiological contaminants of container products made predominantly of plastics materials feeds a plastics granulate to an extruder assembly () that melts the granulate. The granulate is subsequently supplied to a form-fill-seal machine for producing a container product. A guide assembly () guides the plasticated plastic material from the extruder assembly () to the machine. At least one guide assembly () has at least one flow or channel guide () for the melted plastics material, so that microbiological contaminants are guided predominantly into the interior of the wall of the polymeric tube that interior is enclosed by regions of the plastic material that are less contaminated.
