ARP Quantum finish technology for PET bottles
Amcor Rigid Packaging (ARP) has developed a two-step lightweighting technology that is claimed to eliminate more than 50% of the material and weight in the finish of the bottle. ARP’s Quantum technology for polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles is designed to deliver sustainability benefits, lower cost and improve packaging appearance.
By removing more than 50% of the material and weight from the finish, the Quantum technology is designed to reduce manufacturing costs and GHG emissions. The company said this can result in energy savings and lower carbon emissions compared to bottles with a traditional finish. The technology also allows for up to 100% recycled material use and provides a fully recyclable package.
Initially developed for the spirits industry, the Quantum finish technology can be used for packaging in multiple segments including health care, home and personal care, food and dairy.
