Scenarios for 2030 predict that of the 1300kt of
PET material coming from PET bottles collected
from the market yearly, between 20 to 30% will be
colored bottles;2 these will enter their respective
sorting and collection systems to ultimately
produce rPET material that will be fed as new raw
material for non-food PET applications.
