All the Facts on PET
EnviroTakeout’s selection of PET lids are designed for use with square plates, rectangle plates, and tan bowls. They are clear in color to allow for the easy identification of contents for maximum convenience. But what does PET mean?
PET stands for Polyethylene Terephthalate. You can tell if a product is made from PET by looking for the symbol on the product. Products containing PET will have arrows forming a triangle with a #1 in the middle. The #1 is known as a resin identification code. This number is how users and staff know the product is made from PET. This particular plastic is commonly used to make plastic bottle containers and cups, is non-toxic and 100% recyclable. Featuring a lightweight design, PET is recognized as being one of the most popular recycled plastics.
