  • 1.  PET Closure for PET bottles

    Posted 11-26-2023 05:23 PM

    Hi Fellow Packaging Professionals. I am working on a PET cap for PET bottles, the innovation provides excellent sealing (even under high pressure) whilst eliminating the issue of binding that occurs when using PET closure on a PET bottle. As brands begin to tether caps in response to global legislation, a PET closure rather than PP should improve recyclability outcomes by focusing on one material only. I would like to gauge the level of interest from brand owners, to determine if it is worthwhile persuing. I look forward to your feedback.

     After reading this article it seems as if there is a need for a cap solution to deliver a circular outcome.

    There was also recently an announcement for something similar https://www.originmaterials.com/products/pet-caps-and-closures
