LIGHTER TM VIRIDIS 98 is a polyester polymer modified to improve infrared reheating of preforms and containing up to 10% recycled PET, deriving from a chemical recycling process.
LIGHTER VIRIDIS 98 provides very good mechanical properties and a wide processing range on all injection molding machines. Moreover, preforms manufactured from LIGHTER VIRIDIS 98 provide enhanced infrared heating rates, thus improving the operation of the stretch blow molding process, either increasing the maximum output or reducing the reheat energy. LIGHTER VIRIDIS 98 is particularly suitable for the production of bottles
for carbonated soft drinks.
