As well as color correction, this solution also
improves the quality and performance of rPET and
improves bottle mechanical strength, helping to
reduce stoppages, blowouts and scrap while also
reducing energy consumption during the bottle
blowing process.
Since the formulation also has improved heat
stability, it will not accelerate yellowing during the
recycling process, and will also help reduce energy
consumption and improve bottle mechanical
strength by incorporating all the added benefits
from the SmartHeat RHC technology.

Suitable for PET
and rPET preforms and bottles, it can be added to
preforms providing the following benefits:
• Improved blowing performance
• Potential for increased rPET content
• Increased mechanical strength
• Potential for lightweighting
• Improved performance through the
recycle process
• Reduced energy consumption
• No pre-drying requirements
SmartHeat RHC can contribute towards improved
productivity, reduced manufacturing costs,
improved sustainability, and can broaden the scope
for bottle design.

Performance can be observed
and supported during the bottle blowing process
through optimization of the lamps, resulting in
decreased energy consumption due to increased
absorption of heat into the preform.
