RPET (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate)
Sustainable Packaging Solution
RPET (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate) is a material obtained by recycling PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) plastics. RPET, which has an important place in the sustainability-oriented packaging industry, aims to minimize environmental impact by reducing the amount of waste.
Production Process
RPET is obtained by collecting, cleaning and processing used PET bottles or other PET products. In this process, PET materials are first shredded, then melted, and finally shaped to be used in the production of new products.
Eco-Friendly Advantages
One of the most obvious advantages of RPET is the conservation of natural resources and the reduction of waste. The use of reused PET materials reduces the amount of crude oil required to produce new plastics and reduces landfill occupancy.
Additionally, recycling RPET helps reduce the carbon footprint. The use of reused materials saves energy and minimizes environmental impact.
Usage Areas
RPET is used in a wide range of industries. It is widely preferred especially in the food and beverage packaging industry. RPET bottles and containers are an ideal option for packaging water, sodas, juices and other consumer products.
Additionally, RPET is also used in the textile industry. Recycled PET fibers are used in the production of clothing, home textiles and other textile products.
