PET / R-PET Sheet Lines from SML
When your production requires high transparency, consistent quality, and excellent visual appearance — such as for cups, trays, or lids — SML’s PET and R-PET sheet lines stand among the best solutions available worldwide. SML is internationally recognized as one of the leading manufacturers of high-quality sheet extrusion lines.
PET and R-PET – Closing the Material Loop
Recycling is becoming increasingly important in the packaging industry, and PET is one of the few raw materials that can be recycled globally with consistent quality. For this reason, PET and R-PET are ideal for closing the material loop with up to 100% recycled content — without compromising functionality or appearance.
Engineered for Optimal Performance
SML’s PET extrusion systems are designed to deliver maximum output, excellent optical properties, and long-term production stability.
The combination of high-performance extruders and efficient melt cooling on SML’s roll stacks (cooling roll system) ensures:
-
High transparency and brilliant visual clarity
-
Stable and reliable operation, even at high line speeds
-
Uniform sheet thickness and excellent mechanical strength
SML always selects the extrusion system best suited to the customer’s material source, ensuring optimal efficiency, product quality, and production economy.
