rPET Bottle Production
RePETable™ for an efficient transition to up to 100% rPET
With more than 40 years of experience in PET blowing and packaging, Sidel has built deep expertise in recycled PET (rPET) and its influence on bottle production. This know-how has led to the creation of RePETable™, a 360° one-stop hub dedicated to recycled PET, offering complete support from production to packaging design.
RePETable™ combines Sidel’s long-standing PET engineering experience with advanced technologies for rPET bottle production. It provides packaging industry players with a full portfolio of services tailored to their circular economy objectives — from securing consistent recycled PET supply to producing high-quality bottles and optimised packaging designs ready for recycling.
Producing bottles with recycled PET requires adapting processes to the specific characteristics of the resin used. RePETable™ offers a comprehensive range of solutions to ensure that rPET bottles reach the same performance and visual quality as those made from virgin PET, whatever the rPET percentage.
Through packaging services, mould solutions, equipment upgrades and process support, RePETable™ helps you:
By mastering these steps, you secure bottle mechanical strength, optimal material stretchability and consistent shaping — overcoming the typical challenges of rPET bottle production.
RePETable™ also supports innovation in design-for-recycling materials and primary packaging, helping brands anticipate future sustainability standards. This holistic approach strengthens both product quality and environmental performance throughout the entire bottle lifecycle.
PET is inherently aligned with circular economy principles. Combining lightweighting with recycled PET is the most effective way to accelerate carbon neutrality. Thanks to Sidel’s packaging optimisation services, you can reduce bottle weight, cut raw material usage, and offset rPET cost fluctuations — achieving greater sustainability and efficiency across your production line.
