New UV protection PET resin

American Voridian Company is a branch company of Eastman Company and the largest supplier of PET resin for packaging in the world. Recently, the company launched a new type of UV-resistant PET resin to provide UV protection for food, beverages, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and health care products, and to ensure that the contents of packages are protected from adverse reactions caused by UV.

According to reports, ultraviolet rays have a detrimental effect on natural and synthetic pigments and dyes, vitamins, lipids, fatty acids and odors in various foods, beverages, medicines and health products, and standard PET and glass, polypropylene, polyethylene, etc. Other packaging materials allow ultraviolet light transmission. Vitiva PET PC715 contains a UV absorber that complies with PDA regulations to protect color, taste, vitamins, and nutrients in conventional packaging applications.

Vitiva PET combines UV protection with technical performance while preserving the crystal optical clarity of PET. The container made of Vi?tiva PET can almost block all ultraviolet rays emitted from 320 to 370 nanometers, helping to establish a brand image and extend the service life by giving the resin a stylish design and vivid colors.

UV absorbers in Vitiva PET make it easier for plastic bottle manufacturers and brand owners to achieve stable UV resistance. Vitiva PET extends the life of the product by preventing UV-induced or accelerated degradation reactions.

Vitiva PET also offers excellent processing performance. The resin satisfies efficient blow molding productivity and can be adapted to the production of 1-, 1.5-, and 2-grade bottles. Its UV inhibitors do not deposit on the mold or dryer. Vitiva PET can use existing injection molding or blow molding equipment without additional equipment or processing investment and is an ideal replacement for standard PET.

Vitiva PET is unique in that it combines UV protection and high transparency in the same PET packaging material. This polymer produces bright, stable packaging materials. In addition, Vitiva PET resin allows for a high degree of flexibility in the design of plastic bottles, with a sharp outline of the embossment and logo of the bottle body.
