Our Material

When it comes to thermoforming, choosing the right material is crucial to achieving the desired outcome. One popular choice is polyethylene terephthalate (PET) due to its excellent properties such as high clarity, good impact resistance, and ease of processing. In addition, PET is a widely recyclable material that can be used in various applications.

PET is also known for its ability to withstand high temperatures, making it ideal for packaging hot food items. Its transparency allows consumers to see the contents of the package, which is important for marketing purposes. Moreover, PET has a low carbon footprint compared to other materials, making it an environmentally friendly option.

GET EMPOWERED USING THE WASTE HIERARCHY. LET'S CONSTRUCT
A BRIGHTER FUTURE TOGETHER

Waste hierarchy (see below) is a logical order for how waste is preferred to be handled when it is time to say goodbye to it. To help you find the ideal end-of-life option, Hiplex brings products that can be classified into a variety of hierarchical categories.

REUSABLE DESIGN AND MULTIPURPOSE USE

We develop reusable, multipurpose packaging through creative design. Keeping them in the loop over their longer life cycle can help you avoid waste.

NATURAL MATERIALS

RECYCLABLE & RECYCLED MATERIALS

Our recyclable packaging is made with plastic materials numbered 1 PET and 5 PP, and we try to use recycled materials where possible. They are valuable plastics recommended by waste authorities that are widely recycled.

Working towards the goal of zero waste by using corn as the source material for manufacturing. They have readily turned into more resources for use again through recycling or composting.

PET Fact

WE DESIGN FOR RECYCLABILITY

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is the preeminent reused plastic in the world and can be reused once more. PET has the slightest carbon impression compared to elective materials, such as glass and aluminum. Its tall quality compared to its lightweight comes almost in essential efficiency, allowing more things to be passed on in less bundling, requiring less fuel to transport.

• Food-contact safe and globally compliant (FDA / EU / FSSAI)

• High clarity with excellent shelf and retail appeal

• Strong yet lightweight for cost-efficient logistics

• Consistent thermoforming performance for custom designs

• Moisture-resistant with reliable product protection

• 100% recyclable; supports rPET and sustainability goals

• Suitable for high-volume, export-ready packaging

BENEFITS OF RECYCLED PET

• rPET, or recycled PET, is a type of plastic that has a lower carbon footprint compared to virgin PET.

• It is an environmentally friendly option as it utilizes recycled materials instead of producing new plastics from raw materials.

• There are no significant performance challenges when using recycled PET, making it a viable choice for various applications.

• Reusing plastic also has the advantage of requiring 88% less energy than manufacturing plastics from scratch. rPET is lightweight and durable, which means that more products can be transported with less packaging and fuel consumption compared to other container materials.

• rPET offers a sustainable solution that helps reduce waste and conserve resources.
