RPET food trays are a great way to help consumers make more sustainable purchases. They are recyclable and use up to 85% less energy to produce than virgin polypropylene trays. These trays also have a lower carbon footprint, meaning that they save 1.8 tons of CO2 per ton of trays.
The new RPET food tray uses less plastic to manufacture than other trays and requires less material to transport. The tray also retains a high barrier performance, allowing the tray to meet the Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) requirements. This allows the RPET tray to be used in a variety of applications. The tray also reduces the weight of the trays, helping to cut transportation costs.
The RPET food tray also has a high recycled content. 80% of the tray is made from post-consumer recycled PET, while the remainder is virgin. These trays are made from recyclable polypropylene, which is a popular choice for food packaging. The tray is recyclable and can be reused again and again. It also has a minimal plastic footprint, ensuring that it is less wasteful. It also has a rolled edge, ensuring that the tray does not tear.
