PET Bottle

PET is the universal short form for Polyethylene Terephthalate and is commonly used to make various bottles and containers for different products. The PET bottle is available almost everywhere worldwide in its varying avatars and is eco-friendly because it can be reused or recycled.

The advantage of using a PET bottle

PET is universally used because of its many benefits to the end user/consumer and the manufacturer. Among the advantages of using PET are:

· Bottles are transparent – the product is easily visible. You can get some colors in PET bottles now, if your product demands colored bottles.

· Lightweight – bottles, when filled, do not add substantially to the weight of product as the weight of the bottles is negligible.

· Unbreakable – as they are a form of plastic, they are unbreakable. Coupled with the fact that they are lightweight, they are easy to transport.

· Safety – with pilfer proof caps and closures, there is an enhanced safety factor with PET bottles.

· Inert – the bottles are safe for use with food products and are FDA approved for such use.

· Durable – bottles are not breakable and so last a long time.

· Economical – bottles are reasonably priced so do not add considerably to the cost of the product.

· Non-toxic – some plastics are not safe for certain usages, but PET is non-toxic and safe to use for many kinds of products.

The PET bottle is used for packaging drinking water, food products like sauces, sodas and other beverages, salad oils, cooking oil, dressings, toiletries like liquid soap, pesticides and some pharmaceutical products like cough syrups and other liquids. As these bottles are available in many sizes, you can get the right size and shape for your products.
