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
