Recycled PET often exhibits yellowing or color variations due to degradation during the recycling process. These additives are developed to withstand multiple recycling loops, helping the recycled material remain visually appealing even after several uses. These additives should not negatively impact the recyclability of PET and should help maintain the integrity of the recycled material.

The PET packaging market is experiencing significant growth, driven by increasing sustainability demands, higher recycling targets, and the shift away from alternative materials such as polystyrene (PS) or polypropylene (PP). In this context PET’s enhanced recyclability and the capability to reintroduce post-consumer recycled (PCR) content into new food packaging make it an attractive choice for brands and converters worldwide. MARKETS & APPLICATIONS • Thermoformed, APET food packaging, including: - Hot steam sterilization - Hot fill - Microwave use • Polyester • Sheet extrusion & thermoforming KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Suitable for hot steam sterilization, hot fill, and microwave applications • Ideal for food-grade containers with high rigidity and improved gas barrier • Can withstand temperatures up to 100°C • Available in both transparent and opaque options • Processable on existing thermoforming lines with heated molds KEY BENEFITS • A fully circular monomaterial, up to 100% rPET polymer content • Promotion of the circularity of PET and the resulting packaging is possible • Helps customers to comply with the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) that demands recyclability of all packaging with binding PCR content targets by 2030 • Demonstrates improved productivity in comparison to CPET during thermoforming • Helps avoid possible EPR fees or penalties on difficult-to-recycle packaging PRODUCT BULLETIN Copyright © 2025, Avient Corporation.
