Designed-for-recycling and rPET bottle production
RePETable™ for bottle-to-bottle recycling compliant primary packaging
Evaluate your PET bottle’s cost and carbon footprint savings with Sidel’s Packaging optimisation tool. Input your current data and explore the impact of potential improvements.
With over 40 years of experience in blowing and PET packaging, Sidel’s engineers have developed an in-depth understanding of rPET and its impact on bottle production. This know-how has been brought together in RePETable™, a 360° one-stop shop dedicated to recycled PET and designed-for-recycling packaging.
RePETable™ offers a full range of services, from designing packaging optimised for recycling to securing efficient rPET bottle production. Packaging producers can select the services that best fit their PET circularity needs, making it easier to transition towards higher rPET content while maintaining quality and productivity.
Our experts analyse every step of the recycling and bottle production chain: from post-consumer PET bales, flakes and pellets to preform injection, rPET bottle blow moulding and industrialisation. This bottle-to-bottle approach ensures consistent resin quality and production performance throughout the process.
To reach the same performance level as virgin PET, rPET bottle production must be adapted to the specific resin characteristics. RePETable™ provides solutions that help you secure production efficiency and bottle quality at any rPET percentage, so you can progressively increase recycled content with confidence.
Sidel’s small-scale recycling pilot line supports the RePETable™ mission to enable robust PET circularity. It recreates every step in the recycling process and helps the market test and validate new materials for primary packaging – such as closures, sleeves, glues, labels, additives and colourants – while ensuring they are designed-for-recycling.
