WHY DAIRY PRODUCTS REQUIRE PROTECTION FROM LIGHT Certain components of dairy and dairy alternative products are susceptible to light-induced oxidation. This photo-oxidation reduces product nutritional value and diminishes sensory properties. By utilizing PET, light-induced oxidation is minimized, and properties and taste are preserved, even at the lengthy ambient shelf life common with many UHT liquid dairy products.

In pyrolysis, the polymer matrix is oxidized at temperatures >500°C, recovering energy plus the fibers.

Inherent corrosion/oxidation resistance

NOTE TO EDITORS: Dairy and dairy-alternative products are susceptible to light-induced oxidation that reduces product nutritional value and can cause off-flavors.
