PET UK Plant

What We Do

The purpose built manufacturing plant employs batch SSP and vented extrusion technology to change the crystallinity and/or molecular weight of poly-condensable (PET, PBT, PEN etc) and PA polymers to Customer's defined requirements.

Process Flow

Process Flow

Material arrives in bulk, bags or boxes. Easy access to M6 and Europe

Logistics

Logistics

Comprehensive storage in silos or customised warehousing facilitates processing scheduling and order servicing

Testing

Testing

All material is inspected on arrival. Testing may include differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to accurately determine the polymer thermal characteristics, thereby allowing the optimum processing conditions to be employed.

Processing

Processing

All materials are processed within sealed, stainless steel proprietary equipment incorporating innovative design and application to meet Customer’s requirements and maintain food contact integrity

Technology

Technology

Understanding the technology of molecular weight increase is fundamental to this process. PETUK and the parent PETUS have lead the way in batch SSP processing and have pioneered many successful applications.

Finished Product

Finished Product

All material processed is in accordance with our ISO 9001 protocol. Product is released against specification and final testing together with a certificate of conformance.

Applications

Applications

Processed polymers allow customers to develop new markets by having enhanced physical properties (thermal stability, stiffness, easier processing) for demanding applications and direct food contact approval

Adding Value

Adding Value

Developing new markets, processing “difficult” polymers, improving client first pass efficiencies, meeting environmental challenges and differentiated products are all examples of PETUK adding value for their Customers.
