Bio-PET is a PET #1 plastic material that contains up to 30% plant-based content. It is identical to PET in every way and processes, forms and performs because it is PET. The only difference is that 30% of the raw materials come from renewable resources instead of fossil fuels.
A direct drop in replacement for rPET, aPET or PLA, our Bio-PET has the same clarity, the same barrier properties and no changes whatsoever in temperature resistance – either hot or cold. Plus, Bio-PET not only contains up to 50% recycled content, but it can be co-mingled with any PET material, recycled and re-used through any curbside program that accepts PET #1.
