What is PET?
“PET” stands for polyethylene terephthalate, a clear, strong, and lightweight polymer widely used in packaging applications. In the context of plastic bottle raw material, PET resin offers excellent properties for manufacturing high-quality bottles and preforms. When we talk about “preforms” – the test-tube-like intermediate product – we are essentially referring to the semi-finished form of a preform bottle, manufactured from PET resin, that is subsequently stretch-blown into the final bottle shape.
