Plastic Technologies Inc. (PTI) offers recycling stream impact-testing services for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) containers (including resins, additives, adhesives and labels). PTI is one of only two U.S. companies approved by the Association of Postconsumer Plastic Recyclers (APR) to provide testing services in conjunction with the organization’s critical guidance documents. The voluntary screening guidelines help companies understand the approximate effect that their material or container might have on the quality of the rPET stream. APR’s objective is to enhance the quality and quantity of postconsumer plastic packaging materials.
