Variations in the aesthetic appearance of rPET are caused by multiple heat cycles, as the material is recovered and reused.
In addition, processing efficiencies are reduced as the material is recycled.
Examples include:
• Barrier technologies that preserve the shelf-life and quality of food, beverages, medicine and other perishable goods through high-performance materials that require less plastic
• Light-weighting solutions that replace heavier traditional materials like metal, glass and wood, which can improve fuel efficiency in all modes of transportation
• Breakthrough technologies that minimize wastewater and improve the recyclability of materials and packaging across a spectrum of end uses

This new material also delivers high seal integrity for extended shelf life and excellent pressure retention of carbonated beverages.
The materials deliver excellent seal integrity even when processed under ambient or high-temperature pasteurized and hot-fill conditions.
The new Versaflex PKG material comes as a granular material that is compliant with EU 10/2011 and FDA 177.1210 food contact regulations.

In addition,
these technologies can exceed the core benefits of commodity resins
and engineering thermoplastics by providing greater design freedom,
ease of colorability, and efficient processing.
When a lower-performing pigment is used in a material that is processed at
a high temperature, the results are not pretty… the material often turns black or degrades.
The metal used for FFF dies depends on the polymer:
unfilled materials can use softer brass dies, while fiber-reinforced materials
need harder steel to prevent premature wear.
