Product Description
Eastar Renew EN001-25 is a clear copolyester for single use food & beverage and general purpose packaging. It is designed for injection stretch blow molding (ISBM) and has enhanced processing capability compared to commodity PET.

Eastman Renew polymers have been certified by International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC), a global, independent agency for tracking sustainable content in a variety of industries. Renew polymers are produced with ISCC certified circular content by mass balance allocation.

Renew polymers enable a brand to reduce consumption of fossil feedstock-based plastics, achieve sustainability targets without compromise, and be a fast mover in a growing market for sustainable consumer products.

Eastar Renew Copolyester EN001-25 meets the definition of resin identification code #1 (RIC1) as defined by ASTM D7611. Other end product attributes including but not limited to size, color, auxiliary components, and availability of collection may impact recyclability.

Eastar Renew Copolyester EN001-25 may be used in various food contact applications under the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) regulations.

This product has been GREENGUARD INDOOR AIR QUALITY CERTIFIED.
