With a Shore A hardness of 48, Versaflex HC 1348 is slightly softer than Versaflex HC 1365, which has a durometer of 65A and a matte finish.  

For example, an EU directive for use of recycled PET (rPET) in beverage bottles will increase from 25 percent in 2025 to 30 percent in 2030. The new 4020G grade offers up to 50 percent lower haze and reduced impact on the PET recycle stream compared to previous grades, while maintaining the same reliable active oxygen scavenging performance. This solution improves the viability of rPET by reducing haze and reducing yellowing by 50 percent during the mechanical recycling process.
