Today APET is by far the most widely used thermoformed packaging material. Recplas sources APET from thermoformers throughout the UK and our prices are unmatched. Extensively used in polyester staple fibre production, injection moulding and extrusion applications. APET is highly recyclable.
It is worth noting that owing to APET’s requirement for drying (it is hygroscopic) APET is extremely sensitive to contamination and if you are producing this material as scrap it is well worth ensuring its cleanliness as this has a profound effect of its value.
