rPET Sheets for Thermoforming, Printing & Packaging
Overview
Recycled PET Sheets with 30% to 100% Recycled Content
AVI Global Plast manufactures rPET sheets for thermoforming, box packaging, printing, lamination and form-fill-seal applications. Available with recycled-content levels from 30% to 100%, our offering uses pre-consumer and post-consumer PET to meet different material and packaging requirements.
Manufactured at our Daman facility, our rPET sheets are available in a range of thicknesses, widths and finishes. Grade-specific recycled-content documentation and food-contact information support customers in material selection, qualification and packaging development.
Material Fit
Is rPET right for your process?
Thermoforming
For trays, punnets, clamshells and other formed packaging requiring a specified recycled-content level. Discuss cavity depth, tooling, clarity and processing conditions with AVI's team.
Laminated Films
For use within laminated packaging structures. Select the base sheet around forming, bonding, sealing and barrier requirements.
Box Packaging
For converted boxes and window packaging. Specify sheet dimensions, finish and presentation requirements alongside the required recycled content.
Printing Films
For printed applications requiring a suitable surface and sheet format. Discuss the printing method, finish and any treatment requirements.
Form-Fill-Seal
For packaging produced on integrated forming, filling and sealing equipment. Confirm the material specification against your line conditions and packaging structure.
