Virgin PET Granules – Recycled PET Granules.

Virgin PET Granules.

Virgin PET Granule is a versatile material used in various applications, particularly in the production of packaging bottles for beverages, PET sheets, and more. Here are some details:

Virgin PET Granules:

• Applications: These granules are suitable for making packing bottles for various products, including pure water, natural mineral water, distilled water, drinking water, flavorings, and candy containers. They are also used in the production of PET sheet materials.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET):

• Overview: PET is a thermoplastic polyester used for various applications, including bottles, sheets, strapping, and injection-molded products.
• Common Uses: PET bottles find applications in a wide range of industries, including carbonated soft drinks, water (still/carbonated), liquor, edible oil, pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, agrochemicals, toiletries, cosmetics, and consumer goods. PET is also utilized for non-bottle applications such as PET sheet materials, dual-ovenable Crystallised PET (CPET) containers, injection-molded components, and strapping.
