They are chemically inert, making them extremely suitable and safe for many types of packaging.
CREATING A MORE SUSTAINABLE PACKAGE There are a number of ways to create packaging that is considered more sustainable.
You likely have specific goals identified that will result in more sustainable packaging.

The solution is also formulated to increase packaging sustainability; colored bottles containing this additive are classified as recyclable for bottle-to- bottle recycling streams.
RECYCLABILITY & rPET Brand owners wishing to operate within a circular economy want to incorporate higher levels of rPET into their packaging.
In addition, governments are legislating for increased use of recycled material in single-use packaging.

This technology ensures PET food & beverage packaging will protect its contents from oxygen ingress and help prolong product shelf life.
Compared to different types of food & beverage packaging, PET is often preferred because of it’s high clarity, can be easily recycled many times and offers brand owners freedom of design to differentiate their product packaging to create greater shelf appeal.
With a reduction in both haze and pearlescence the packaging gives wa premium feel.
