PET is a popular material choice for food and beverage packaging, affording high clarity with design flexibility. Additionally, it can be easily recycled multiple times unlike alternative packaging materials. To support the shift toward a circular economy, governments are legislating increased levels of recycled material in single-use packaging.

It also needed to have high clarity, which created a significant problem: existing materials provided clarity, but not the necessary stiffness. They selected a TPE-based impact modifier that could be used at a loading level five percentage points below the current material while still meeting all of the performance requirements, including higher stiffness. In addition, reducing the tote wall thickness resulted in a savings of about $470,000 a year, based on reduction in material usage and lower unit costs for fuel to transport products to retailers.
