| Résumé : |
To produce high-quality packaging for the European food industry, processors, besides having efficient means of production, must more than ever be prepared to break new ground. The requirements of the EU Plastics Pact are ambitious : By 2030, all plastic packaging must be 100 % recyclable and contain at least 30 % recycled material. “rPET” is the highly promising response to this challenge, which the partner companies Engel, Alpla, Brink, IPB Printing and Intopack have tried and tested in practice. |
| Note de contenu : |
- The only plastic that can be recycled into food packaging
- Special features of (r)PET processing
- rPET enters the field of thin-wall packaging
- Deformation-free up to 675 newton
- Stable even at extreme temperatures
- Exploiting the full potential of rPET
- Fig. 1 : The Engel e-speed injection molding machine can produce thin-wall containers from PET and rPET
- Fig. 2 : In combination with IML, ready-to-fill thin-wall packaging can be injection molded in one operation from rPET
- Fig. 3 : This cup of 70 % PET and 30 % rPET was used for the material tests from Alpla
- Fig. 5 : If the curve profiles in the top load test are compared, it can be seen that the PET cup (left) withstands an almost 30 % higher load than that of PP (right)
- Fig. 6 : The PET cup withstood significantly higher pressures in the breaking test than the comparison cup of PP. The superiority at refrigerator temperature underscores the suitability of PET packaging for cold-fill foods |
