The baled PET bottles arriving at our facility are subjected to pre-washing and label peeling after the bale opening process. Subsequently, they pass through the optical separator and are separates according to their colors. Then, after the crushing, washing and rinsing processes; they get dry and fill into big bags by passing through the color, polymer and metal separator as last stage of all processes.
The following applications are available for the use of recycled PET flakes:
- Food packaging, including beverage bottles
- Packaging for cosmetic products or detergent (PET has high chemical resistance)
- General packaging industry (e.g. films, storage and carrying containers, packaging straps)
- Textile Industry (as "Polyester Fiber")
- Automobile industry, e.g. airbags, seat belts, insulation mats, air filter etc.
Hot-washed pet flake is produced using crushing and sorting technologies (Herbold and Tomra Titech) of various industry-leading machine manufacturers. All production of Escopetflake’s is made from post-consumer PET bottles.
