The "ID card" of a mineral water bottle. Gently pinch the mineral water bottle in your hand and you will find that it is both light and flexible - thanks to PET plastic (polyethylene terephthalate). This material has high transparency, strong impact resistance, and can effectively block carbon dioxide and oxygen, making it an ideal choice for beverage packaging. During production, the preforms are injection molded and then blow-molded into bottles, making the entire process highly efficient and energy-saving. Ii. Why do you prefer this material?
1. Safety: PET is stable at room temperature and will not react with water-based substances.
2. Portability: It weighs only 1/10 of a glass bottle, reducing transportation costs by 60%.
3. Malleability: Bottles of various capacities and shapes can be made by adjusting the process.
4. Cost advantage: Moderate raw material prices, significant benefits from large-scale production.
Little-known Facts about Recycling: Approximately 1 million PET beverage bottles are consumed globally every minute, but the recycling rate is less than 50%. In fact, recycled PET bottles can be transformed into textile fibers (such as sportswear fabrics), packaging sheets, or even new bottles. After cleaning and crushing, PET fragments are regenerated through melting, and their performance can reach over 80% of that of new materials. The recycling process significantly reduces the consumption of petroleum resources.
