In plastic food packaging, these materials often include PET, HDPE and Polypropylene due to their compatibility with curbside recycling programs.  Among these options, Polypropylene (PP) stands out for its versatility. It can withstand higher levels of heat and provide higher levels of protection from moisture transmission. It’s low material density offers yield advantages and light-weighting options for potential cost savings. Additionally, different PP resin types can be blended to further customize the material for your specific packaging needs.  Sometimes this versatility can lead to confusion when selecting the proper PP material. GOEX can help. Our CONTOUR® line of food-grade Polypropylene materials offers options. Each is geared to address particular product packaging demands.  CONTOUR® 58 - Homopolymer Homopolymers are ideal for high-stiffness and high-rigidity applications, making them suitable for products that need to withstand temperatures from refrigeration to microwaving, while also being dishwasher-safe (e.g. takeout containers, food service plates/platters, etc). However, Homopolymers’ relatively lower impact strength means they may not be suitable for very low-temperature environments. CONTOUR® 59 – Impact Copolymer Impact Copolymers are specifically designed with a higher impact strength. These enhanced impact properties lend themselves to freezer/low temperature applications and are an important consideration in order to avoid cracking in frozen package drop test scenarios. Impact Copolymers also have lower stiffness properties than Homopolymers and the highest levels of haze, which must be considered during the design stage of your packaging. CONTOUR® 62 – Random Copolymer Although Polypropylenes do not generally provide the inherent clarity attributes of materials like PET, higher levels of package clarity are achievable through the use of Random Copolymers. These materials are engineered to enhance optical clarity and minimize haze. Random Copolymers offer the highest clarity among all Polypropylene options and can be further clarified through the addition  of food-safe additives/modifiers. Finding the proper balance between aesthetics, performance, sustainability and cost can be challenging. GOEX can help you understand the needs of your unique application and guide you toward a material solution best tailored to meet your specific packaging requirements.   GOEX Wed, 16 Aug 2023 15:33:00 GMT f1397696-738c-4295-afcd-943feb885714:52 https://www.goex.com/resources/news/id/54/vol-33-pet-projects#Comments 0 https://www.goex.com/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/RssComments.aspx?TabID=153&ModuleID=493&ArticleID=54 https://www.goex.com:443/DesktopModules/DnnForge%20-%20NewsArticles/Tracking/Trackback.aspx?ArticleID=54&PortalID=0&TabID=153 https://www.goex.com/resources/news/id/54/vol-33-pet-projects PET Projects A "pet project" is a project pursued as a personal favorite, as opposed to one that is generally accepted as necessary or important. At GOEX, all of the materials we extrude are essential to the markets we serve, vital to our valued customers, and consequential to the environment. Through product development and innovation, we provide product options (including PET) that are used in a variety of critical applications. PET stands for polyethylene terephthalate, a form of polyester. PET has been safely used to package beverages, food, personal care, and household items since the introduction of the first PET bottle in the 1970s. You will recognize PET material, as it is easily identified by the #1 code on or near the bottom of plastic packaging. Classified as a curbside recyclable material, PET is the most commonly used and easily recycled plastic on Earth. The PET we extrude at GOEX meets the highest standards and demanding requirements of the medical thermoforming market. Our MEDPET®90 medical-grade polyester is specifically designed for rigid medical device packaging. MEDPET®90 provides a preferred recycling option and cost-effective solution, offering significant cost savings over traditional medical device packaging materials. GOEX extrudes PET materials for our food packaging customers as well. Our CONSERVE® PET is FDA-approved for contact with food and beverages and is a popular choice for our food industry partners. Our CONSERVE® line-up includes APET materials with enhanced barrier properties that help extend the shelf-life and freshness of the food they package. Keeping oxygen and moisture vapor transmission to a minimum, these materials are ideal for the packaging of a wide range of food products from charcuterie to cheese snack packs. As part of our RE•COVER™ family of recycled products, our CONSERVE® rPET is produced with a minimum 25% post-consumer recycled (PCR) content. This material offers added environmental and regulatory compliance benefits to our  food packaging customers. There are many positives to using PET for packaging. From aesthetics, to economics, to the environment, GOEX has it covered with an awesome array of PET materials. Make GOEX your trusted and environmentally-sound material provider of choice to help achieve your economic, compliance, and sustainability goals.  Let our PET be your new personal favorite!
