Recycled PET rollstock is cleared for food-contact use
March 1, 2009
Made from 100% post-consumer recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) water/juice/soda/sports drink bottles, Eco-Therm rollstock meets the Food and Drug Administration requirements for food-contact applications. Available in clear, opaque, tinted or matte colors, this crack-resistant thermoform material is suitable for frozen and refrigerated foods. This new, proprietary material offers environmental, performance and cost benefits. Eco-Therm is recyclable within existing PET recycling streams. Because the material is not heat-sensitive, there are no storage, handling or shelf life concerns. IPF Inc. 978-745-8876;www.ecothermfilms.com
