The EU Statement on circular economy targets requires 25% of post-consumer Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (rPET) in all new PET bottles from 2025, and 30% from 2030 onwards. Currently PET Bottle manufactures struggle with the introduction of rPET back into their incoming raw material stream because of variation in rPET feedstock reducing the mechanical and optical properties of the produced bottles.ENVIROPET are developing a ground breaking technology PET-Yield which will not only enable 30% rPET addition but will also enable the addition of up to 20% washed and unprocessed PET flake without losing the mechanical and optical properties of the PET bottles.PET-Yield will enable plastic bottle manufactures (envisaged customers) to* save £6million pa per plant in raw materials* fast track their compliance with the UK's national and Global targets of sustainable manufacturing by reducing CO2 emissions by at least 20% per PET bottle plant* For the first time introduce Closed Loop Recycling (product to product) practices in the PET bottle industry

欧盟循环经济目标声明要求从 2025 年起所有新 PET 瓶中使用 25% 的消费后再生聚对苯二甲酸乙二醇酯 (rPET)，从 2030 年起使用 30%，目前 PET 瓶制造商正在努力将 rPET 重新引入其原材料中。由于 rPET 原料的变化降低了所生产瓶子的机械和光学性能，因此材料流。ENVIROPET 正在开发一项突破性技术PET-Yield 不仅可以添加 30% 的 rPET，还可以添加高达 20% 的经过清洗和未加工的 PET 薄片，而不会损失 PET 瓶的机械和光学性能。PET-Yield 将使塑料瓶制造商能够使用（预计）客户）*每年在每个工厂节省 600 万英镑的原材料*，通过将每个 PET 瓶的二氧化碳排放量减少至少 20%，快速实现英国国家和全球可持续制造目标工厂* 首次在 PET 瓶行业引入闭环回收（产品到产品）实践
