https://www.avient.com/content/long-fiber-pultrusion-manufacturing-process
This process starts with tows of continuous fiber which are pulled from creels through a proprietary impregnation die where the fiber becomes melt impregnated with thermoplastic polymer.
The melt impregnated fiber exits the die as continuous composite strands which are cooled using water and/or air until solidified.
Strands then pass through a puller unit which keeps the manufacturing process continuously operating and provides its pultrusion (pulled extrusion) name.

PET is
therefore a popular choice for businesses who want an eco-friendly plastic that
can be recycled again and again.
These commitments and mandates will continue to drive the high and
increasing demand for recycled plastic bottles.
However, there is still question who should pay for these investments—
federal and state governments, businesses or consumers.
