For decades, plastic has been the most widely used non-biodegradable material, generating a great deal of environmental pollution in its production process, which stored waste on land, sea and air.

Concern for the environment is increasingly present in society. Customers demand ecological products, and companies, aware that resources are running out, offer and promote sustainable actions , use and include in their services products made with materials with a lower environmental impact, such as rPet.

The solution to the problem of excessive plastic is to reintroduce this waste into the circular system in order to convert the most polluting waste into rPET, the 100% environmentally sustainable resource and therefore the preferred material for ecological merchandising.

What is rpet

rPet is the result of recycling leftover materials , mostly from recycling PET bottles and, to a lesser extent, from industrial waste of polyester or clothing, obtaining a resistant and durable material with the same properties as virgin material that is mixed with other different materials to optimize the degree of quality.

Although they are similar materials, PET is not an element that can be recycled countless times without losing quality (as aluminium can) and, as with other materials (recycled cotton), they compensate for this loss of quality by providing other components to adjust them to the original recipe (for example, PET is not used to make fabrics).

Uses of rPet in industry and eco merchandising

Nowadays, 100% recycled plastic (RPET) is very difficult to distinguish from virgin plastic in terms of quality and finish, its main differences lie in the price, since recycled Pet, so well known for its use in original promotional gifts for companies , is cheaper, starting from a finished product it saves a lot of energy so it produces fewer emissions of polluting gases, reduces dependence on oil and is therefore more beneficial for the environment.

Its main uses cover all types of industry, from food to textiles, including technology.

In the food market, only a first level of recycling is allowed for food use, and that is why there are different symbols that indicate their origin, thus certifying that the material used is safe for packaging food, in contact with food and drinks, it preserves cold or heat, and being transparent, it facilitates control of the content without having to open more than necessary, and maintains the properties of the food for longer.

Textile industry: The need to mix with other components achieves a durable material that can be applied to the textile industry, among others, achieving ecological garments that provide above all a durable, resistant, light, waterproof and flexible fabric, very comfortable to wear.

Eco-merchandising industry: The versatility that rPET provides makes it the perfect recycled and recyclable material to transmit the committed value of your company, which is why it is a widely used resource for the manufacture of any corporate gift for companies , from the bottle opener, offered at commemorative events, to the practical notebook and promotional drawstring backpack with which they welcome you in training courses.
