Polyester Film—The Environmentally Friendly Polymer

PET is considered to be a "green" or environmentally friendly polymer. The reason: PET and PET-based products are...

• Safe,
• Non-toxic,
• Do not contain heavy metals,
• Do not use plasticizers,
• Are lightweight, and
• Are easily recycled.

As the demand for PET grows, more and more applications are being developed. This will allow industries throughout the world the ability to use PET film to make stronger, lighter products—thus helping them replace other heavier materials that have undesirable environmental characteristics.
