In today's world, sustainable packaging has become a buzzword, and for a good reason. It is not surprising that more and more businesses are looking for ways to make their products sustainable to reduce their environmental impact. Plastics, which have a long life, can be recycled and reused, and have been widely used in packaging applications. However, the plastic waste generated has become a significant challenge as it contributes to the overall plastic waste problem, which continues to grow.
To address this issue, there has been an increasing demand for cost-effective solutions that can process and recycle post-consumer PET and APET regrind. Processing Technologies International (PTi) has stepped up its game with a new option that is designed to help businesses meet their sustainable packaging goals while keeping costs in check.
PTi's unique dryer-less twin-screw sheet extrusion production system is a game-changer in the plastics recycling industry. The system can process mixed regrind (PETG and APET) and convert it into high-quality thermoformed sheet for consumer packaging. This breakthrough technology is eco-friendly and produces no waste while generating high-quality outputs that meet stringent industry standards.
One of the key advantages of PTi's dryer-less twin-screw sheet extrusion production system is that there is no need for pre-drying of the plastic regrind. This eliminates the need for costly drying equipment and associated energy consumption, reducing the overall operating costs for businesses. This system can process mixed PET and APET regrind at a high throughput rate while maintaining uniformity and thickness in the final product.
The technology is well-suited for companies that require a dependable, high-performance extrusion system that can produce sustainable packaging materials. This solution has the potential to greatly reduce the carbon footprint of packaging and make a positive impact on the environment.
Sustainability is a priority for consumers, and businesses that prioritize sustainability will have an edge in the market. With PTi's dryer-less twin-screw sheet extrusion production system, companies can switch to using post-consumer regrind and meet their sustainability goals while producing high-quality packaging materials. The technology also helps to improve the bottom line by reducing operating costs and enhancing efficiency.
In conclusion, PTi's innovative dryer-less twin-screw sheet extrusion production system for processing mixed PET and APET regrind is a game-changer in the plastics recycling industry. The technology is eco-friendly, cost-effective, and produces high-quality outputs that meet stringent industry standards.
