From used trays to new packaging
CIRPET+™ is part of a fully integrated tray‑to‑tray recycling approach. By using recycled trays as the starting point for new packaging, CIRPET+™ helps close the loop on PET and reduce reliance on virgin materials – while keeping high‑quality plastic in the food packaging cycle where it belongs.
This approach supports stronger recycling markets, improves material efficiency and helps brands demonstrate measurable progress towards circularity.
