What is RPET?

RPET stands for Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate, a type of plastic that is recycled from post-consumer waste, such as water bottles and other plastic containers. RPET plastics are a sustainable alternative to traditional plastics because they reduce the need for new raw materials and help divert plastic waste from landfills and oceans.

Benefits of RPET Plastics

Sustainability: The primary advantage of RPET plastics is their positive environmental impact. By choosing RPET containers, you’re supporting recycling efforts and helping to reduce the carbon footprint associated with plastic production.

Recyclability: Inline Plastics' RPET containers are not only made from recycled materials, but they are also fully recyclable. This means they can be reused in the production of new containers, contributing to a circular economy.
