Effective UV light blocking additive technology optimizes PET container performance to provide greater protection for UV-sensitive beverages. Packaging designers are not limited to opaque and sleeve constructions when designing containers for UV-sensitive beverages. UV barrier additives that don’t affect PET clarity or quality during recycling help brand owners improve their sustainability credentials and in general enable more recycled PET to be used when producing new containers.

Alloy & Blends

If a matte finish is required, a rougher mold texture should be used (or a GLS product such as GLS Versalloy™ TPV Alloys, which naturally produce a matte surface).

GLS recommended a Versalloy™ thermoplastic vulcanizate (TPV) alloy for excellent surface quality, easy processing with excellent flow, and high tear strength.
