Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)
Product Overview
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a clear, lightweight polyester known for its strength, transparency and excellent barrier properties against gas and moisture. Its high dimensional stability and recyclability have made it the material of choice for food and beverage packaging worldwide. PET is typically processed through injection stretch blow moulding for bottles and extrusion for sheets and fibres. Dost TIS sources PET to support packaging manufacturers who require consistent quality and recyclable material for food-grade applications.
