Another color-related challenge is the multitude of different color streams of recycled PET, which can limit the uses for recycled colored PET. In many instances, these colored bottles may offer an outlet to utilize some of the less transparent rPET feedstock as the colorant can mask the original recyclate color. utm_source=eBook&utm_id=rPET Button 92: Button 93: Button 3: Button 83: Button 5: Button 6: Button 66: Button 67: Button 68: Button 69: Button 70: Button 71: Button 72: Button 73: Button 74: Button 75: Button 76: Button 77: Button 78: Button 79: Button 84: Button 85: Button 86: Button 87: Button 88: Button 89: Button 90: Button 91: Button 80:
