Vitiva PET is crystal-clear, durable, and can be substituted for standard PET without special tooling or equipment modifications. It contains an FDA-compliant UV light absorber that protects colors, flavors, vitamins and nutrients from harmful ultraviolet light. And, because the UV protection is chemically bound to the resin, there's no threat of leaching or change in taste. These proprietary features ensure that your products are well protected. Heatwave polymer, the industry's premier heatset resin, maintains stability under extreme hot-fill conditions, making it a suitable alternative for heavier and more fragile packaging options. Heatwave polymer CF746, the industry's premier heatset resin, maintains stability under extreme hot-fill conditions, making it a suitable alternative for heavier packaging options. |
