Recycling Studies

How recyclable is your package, additive, coating, label, new resin, or barrier resin?  We offer complete and comprehensive evaluations to judge the bottle-to-bottle recyclability of all new material and additive combinations, following either the European PET Bottle Platform protocol. Recyclability studies can be custom designed to yield the basic, yet critical, information that may be required before beginning a comprehensive bottle-to-bottle evaluation.
