PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) Plastics are generally clear, tough and are a good barrier to gas and moisture. PET also has a good resistance to heat. PET is a good choice for product packaging because of its many desirable characteristics. PET is available in a wide range of colors shapes and sizes. Darker colored PET plastic containers may be best for blocking UV rays from light sensitive materials. PET is highly resistant to dilute acids, oils, and alcohols.

PET can be identified easily by locating its recycling code symbol. PET is denoted by the familiar triangular shaped arrows with the number 1 in the center. PET can be recycled into many other products besides bottles and jars, other recycled PET products include ski coat fibers, fleece vest as well as sleeping bag lining.
