Polyethylene terephthalate, or better known as PETG, is a thermoplastic polyester with a wide range of properties. It is a modification of PET (polyethylene terephthalate) with the addition of ethylene glycol (G) added at the molecular level to provide different chemical properties.
PETG plastic films have a myriad of properties that make them a suitable choice for a variety of applications in numerous industries. Its excellent chemical resistance and formability make it easy to manufacture. While similar to PET, it is not only stronger and more durable, but also has higher impact resistance and is better suited for higher temperatures.
In addition to these properties, PETG is well suited for converting techniques such as slicing, slitting and guillotine.
how it is used
Due to its versatility, PETG plastic films are used in a wide variety of markets including graphics/printing, packaging, and medical device/diagnostic strips. In addition to heat, low temperature, abrasion and solvent resistance, PETG is ideal for applications requiring flexibility and impact resistance
PETG is commonly used in packaging (medical, food/beverage and retail), advertising displays and electronic insulators. It is also ideal for protecting parts, food and beverage containers and packaging, manufacturing, and more.
In addition, PETG is becoming the first choice for the 3D printing industry. In addition to the benefits already stated, in addition to the added glycol that prevents problems associated with PET, 3D printing prefers PETG plastic film as it provides good layer adhesion, minimal deformation and when printing No smell.
application
food and drink
Due to its excellent chemical resistance and ability to easily thermoform, as well as being FDA-approved, PETG is the plastic film of choice for items such as food storage containers, clamshells and other food and beverage packaging applications.
medical
The rigid construction of PETG enables it to withstand the harsh sterilization processes seen in medical packaging and medical device applications.
POP and Display
PETG is commonly used in retail displays and is ideal for signage due to its ability to be colored.
