How to Compact PET Bottles

Small is beautiful made at least for the environment. Small entrepreneurs can now assume the role of environmental messiahs by creating polyethylene tetra-phthalate (PET) crushing units that allow them to get rid of the threat and environmental risk caused by discarded PET bottles.

Every year millions of tons of tetra-phthalate polyethylene (PET) used in the packaging of soft drinks and bottled water are generated, which is why it is essential to know how to compact PET bottles.

The situation is gradually improving as the previous scenario of recycling followed by a scientific method that ends in unauthorized bottling by unscrupulous people is being replaced by a global recycling initiative, and more and more companies are engaged in compacting PET bottles to produce PET flake, with which other materials such as other packaging can be manufactured, fabrics and even furniture.

The collection of PET bottles by professional distributors helps reduce the unauthorized bottling of water and soft drinks. This initiative has also helped to shorten the recycling chain, so that the people involved in the process can earn a good amount as remuneration. This, in turn, stimulates the volume of the collection.

Pet compaction facilitates transportation to recycling sites and later converts PET into flakes for the manufacture of packaging material, carpets, jackets, videotapes, x-ray films, etc.
