The chemical name for polythene is PET, which stands for polyethylene terephthalate. It is transparent, light, and sturdy. Carbonated soft drinks, bottled water, milk, juice, tubs, trays for food, bottles for domestic, personal care, and pharmaceutical products, as well as sheet and film for packaging, are all commonly packaged with it.
PET waste is gathered through curbside recycling programmes that use both single-stream and dual-stream strategies before the industrial recycling process ever begins. Dual-stream recycling mandates that paper-based products be collected in a separate bin from plastic, whereas single-stream recycling calls for all recyclables to be put in the same container.
Recycled plastic can be used to create new items, preventing the misuse of raw materials and the subsequent increase in plastic pollution.
Recycled PET liners are created from polyethylene terephthalate, the same substance used to create ordinary single-use water bottles. These liners often cost less than their natural fibre counterparts, such cotton, and provide similar thermal protection. When used as insulation, rPET liners are no longer curbside recyclable and can harm recycling procedures.
The Global Recycled PET (rPET) liner market accounted for $XX Billion in 2021 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2022 to 2030.
The introduction of Avery Dennison’s rPET recycled content liner solidifies the business’ dedication to sustainability by giving converters access to the first rPET liner in North America made for paper facestocks.
Three of the sustainability standards for the portfolio will be met by the rPET liner portfolio:Recycled material Give what we’ve already utilised a second chance. Make packaging recyclable to facilitate recycling.
What we have can be used once more. Ethically sourced Select from hundreds of facestocks created from paper that has been FSC-certified or from film and paper that uses renewable resources.
