These scavengers can also lead to the formation of non-intentionally added substances (NIAS) that can accumulate and pose compliance risks.
This involves optimizing the recycling process and packaging composition to avoid creating unwanted substances during repetitive processing.
A robust development process that simulates the recycling process multiple times is needed to identify and eliminate harmful substances before they enter the rPET stream.

Other developments, such as increasingly strict environmental, safety and health laws,
regulations and related enforcement policies, including those under the European Union Restriction of the Use of
Certain Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS), Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of
Chemicals (REACH), the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (covering Conflict Minerals),
and the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, the implementation of additional content-specific standards,
discovery of unknown conditions, and claims for damages to property, persons or natural resources resulting from
plant emissions or products, could also result in additional costs or liabilities.
Our operations on, and ownership of, real property are subject to environmental, health and safety laws and
regulations at the national, state and local governmental levels (including, but not limited to, the Restriction of
Hazardous Substances (RoHS) and the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008).
Environmental Costs
We expense costs that are associated with managing hazardous substances and pollution in ongoing operations on
a current basis.
