What is RPET (Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate)?

RPET is made from recycled PET plastic, the same material used to make single-use water bottles. Instead of ending up in landfills, these bottles are collected, cleaned, and processed into RPET, giving them a second life as a versatile and durable material.

What is RPET Vacuum Forming?

Vacuum forming is a manufacturing process where a sheet of heated plastic is stretched over a mold and then a vacuum is applied to pull the plastic tightly against the mold’s shape. When we use RPET for this process, we’re able to create strong, lightweight, and custom-shaped products that are also environmentally friendly.
