[PCR Plastic]
PCR Plastic, or post-consumer recycled plastic, refers to plastic material that has been recycled after being used by consumers. This recycled plastic can be used to create new products, reducing the amount of virgin plastic needed and diverting plastic waste from landfills. PCR plastic is an environmentally friendly option that helps to reduce the reliance on new plastic production and promotes a more sustainable approach to plastic use.
[PET]
PET, or polyethylene terephthalate, is a versatile thermoplastic polymer that is widely used in the production of various products. It is most commonly known for its use in the manufacturing of plastic bottles for beverages, food containers, and packaging materials.
PET is valued for its excellent properties such as transparency, lightweight, strong barrier to moisture and gases, and recyclability. These attributes make it an ideal choice for applications requiring both product visibility and protection, such as in the packaging of carbonated drinks, water, juices, sauces, and salad dressings.
In addition to its use in packaging, PET is also employed in other products including fibers for clothing, carpets, and industrial applications. Its resistance to wear, tear, and moisture, combined with its ability to be recycled and repurposed, has made PET a popular choice in various industries.
