Description
Brands are committed to being more sustainable and reducing their carbon emissions. Vital strategies include reducing the amount of plastic used and increasing the usage of post-consumer recycled resin in packaging. Both strategies present unique challenges to aesthetics, processing and/or performance. This presentation will explore methods to reduce plastic in PET packaging while maintaining performance, and approaches to improving rPET both at the recycler and the convertor.
