Food-Grade rPET Capacity Expands, Boosting Green Supply of Preforms & Closures
Authorized food-grade recycled PET production capacity sees continuous global expansion, greatly lifting the supply of eco-friendly raw materials for PET preforms, caps and bottle handles. Updated chemical decontamination technology purifies post-consumer PET waste to meet strict food contact safety standards, supporting recycled content from 25% up to 100% for packaging components.
Packaging processors upgrade injection and blow molding equipment to adapt rPET’s melting and stretching characteristics. New formulas eliminate yellowing and haze issues of recycled resin products, ensuring clear appearance of preforms and stable sealing performance of bottle caps.
Policy incentives in multiple regions encourage brands to raise recycled plastic proportion in packaging. Industry forecasts predict over 60% of newly ordered PET preforms and closures will contain PCR recycled materials by the end of 2027.
