Klear Plastic Ventures (Klear) is presenting its latest sustainable PET heat shrinkable film products.

On display is Crystallizable TopGreen, a film is recognized by The Association of Plastic Recyclers (APR) for meeting or exceeding their Critical Guidance Protocol for Clear PET Articles with Labels and Closures requirements (PET-CG-02). These films are claimed to pass through the PET bottle recycling process without clumping or negatively impacting the material flow.

Sleeve labels made with crystallizable PET film allow recyclability of post-consumer PET bottles. Klear also supplies films made with 30 percent Post-Consumer Recycled (PCR) content. CO2 emissions are claimed to be reduced by 19% during the manufacturing process compared to virgin polyester films produced from petroleum.
