(PET)
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a versatile thermoplastic polymer widely used in the manufacture of various consumer goods, including bottles, packaging and textile fibres. This polymer is recognised for its durability, transparency and high mechanical resistance.
PET is a highly recyclable material that can be processed to obtain almost virgin properties. It is therefore also an environmentally responsible choice for various applications.
