PET

PET is a strong, lightweight plastic resin that looks similar to glass in clarity and takes colorant very well.  PET is commonly used in food packaging because of its strong barrier properties against water vapor, dilute acids, oils, gases, and alcohols.  It is shatter-resistant, slightly flexible and easy to recycle.  PET packaging is all around us everyday.  It is great packaging for soda and alcohol because of its strong barrier protection.  You can tell a PET bottle by the recycling code "1" marked on the bottle
