Polyethylene terephthalate, or PET, is a type of plastic that’s strong, lightweight and easily recyclable. https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/recycled-polyethylene-terephthalate-pet-market Projected Growth The global rPET market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 6.7% from 2021–2028. https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/recycled-polyethylene-terephthalate-pet-market https://www.spglobal.com/platts/en/market-insights/blogs/petrochemicals/022621-us-plastic-recycling-pet-bottles-packaging-waste-investment https://ec.europa.eu/environment/topics/plastics/single-use-plastics_en Supply & Demand Currently, demand for rPET is outpacing the supply.

Molecular Structure Chemical Name Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE). Composition UHMWPE is a type of polyolefin that is composed of very long chains of polyethylene with a very high % of parallel orientation and high level of crystallinity.

Traditionally, UHT liquid dairy products have been packaged in laminated paperboard cartons, pouches, or multilayer high density polyethylene (HDPE) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles.

The range of sizes suitable for the Melt Injection unit are the larger end of the PlanetPak range—25L and 15L containers The basis of a PlanetPak container is a robust polyethylene liner with a proprietary collapsing design, encompassed by a cardboard outer shell. The polyethylene liner has a non-drip valve outlet that connects seamlessly to the FlexCart metering system and the outer shell is designed to fit onto the FlexCart carriage.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Enables 100% PCR packaging • Helps companies meet sustainability goals • Replaces virgin resin, reducing total energy consumption and limiting emissions* • Combines colorants and functional additives in one solution • Allows for full recyclability of the end product • Provides a lower carbon product footprint than traditional masterbatch • Suitable for use in polyethylene (PET) and polypropylene (PP) as well as in rPET and rPP applications MARKETS AND APPLICATIONS Rejoin PCR Colorants are designed for use in a broad range of applications, including household and personal care packaging, consumer goods, or food and beverage containers.

High performance liquid foaming additives for vinyl, polyethylene, and polystyrene foaming applications 

Cross-linked polyethylene is typically used to produce this type of cable.

This leads to a cleaner recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) stream, which is critical for creating high-quality recycled materials.
