As a specialist in thermoformed plastic packaging for fresh produce, Zibo has long been at the forefront of functional, high-quality solutions tailored for the agricultural and retail sectors. But with increasing environmental pressures, the conversation has shifted. It’ s no longer just about packaging that works; it’ s about packaging that lasts- without lasting forever.
The Power of rPET: From Waste to Worth
Unlike virgin plastics that rely on fossil fuels, rPET is derived from both post-consumer and post-industrial recycled PET. This includes everyday items such as water bottles and clear food containers, as well as offcuts and scrap material generated during PET production processes. These are collected, sorted, and repurposed to create a sustainable material with second-life potential.
Zibo’ s 100 % rPET punnet range gives this material new pur-pose- one that is foodsafe, fully recyclable, and crucially, circular in its lifecycle.
