Here are a few FAQs about rPET:

  • What is rPET

    rPET stands for recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate). It is made by recycling used PET plastic products, such as beverage bottles, into new plastic material. The recycled plastic can then be used to make new products.


  • How is rPET produced?

    The process of producing rPET typically involves:

    • Collecting used PET bottles and containers
    • Sorting, cleaning, and removing labels/caps
    • Shredding the plastic into small flakes
    • Melting and filtering the flakes
    • Forming the melted plastic into pellets or new products
  • What products can be made from rPET?

    rPET can be used to make a wide variety of products, including:

    • New plastic bottles and food containers
    • Clothing and textiles
    • Backpacks and bags
    • Outdoor gear like tents
    • Insulation
    • Carpeting
  • What are the environmental benefits of rPET?

    Using rPET instead of virgin PET plastic offers several environmental advantages:

    • Reduces plastic waste in landfills and oceans
    • Saves energy compared to producing new plastic (up to 80% less)
    • Decreases reliance on fossil fuels for plastic production
    • Lowers carbon emissions
  • Is rPET food-safe?

    Yes, rPET can be processed to food-grade quality, making it suitable for packaging and beverage. Many bottled water and beverage companies now use rPET in their packaging.

    By choosing products made with rPET, consumers can support plastic recycling efforts and help reduce environmental impacts associated with plastic production and waste.

  • How does rPET contribute to a circular economy?

     By using rPET, the demand for virgin PET derived from fossil fuels is reduced, conserving natural resources and decreasing reliance on non-renewable materials. rPET enables a closed-loop system where plastic packaging can be recycled multiple times, becoming the raw material for new packaging. This creates a continuous cycle of use and reuse.
