RePET Group is a UK-based recycled plastics company developing a food-grade rPET pellet facility in SE Texas, USA. We convert post-consumer PET bottle flake into food-contact certified rPET pellets — supplying the recycled-content commitments of the world's largest beverage brands.
US and EU brand owners face legally binding recycled-content mandates they cannot meet with current domestic supply. Food-grade rPET — the only grade accepted for beverage packaging — is structurally short. RePET Group is developing the SE Texas facility to close that gap, targeting dual FDA and EFSA certification on commissioning.
We source pre-washed, pre-sorted PET bottle flake from qualified global suppliers — not baled post-consumer bottles. No hot-wash line. No sorting front-end. Consistent, controlled input from day one.
This eliminates the largest source of variability in rPET production, reduces our capital footprint, and frees us from the domestic collection constraints that limit every competitor.
Every pellet leaving our facility meets FDA Letter of Non-Objection requirements and EFSA Regulation (EU) 2022/1616 — dual certification unlocking food-contact use in US and EU markets simultaneously.
Leading-edge twin-screw extrusion with SSP decontamination achieving >99.9% volatile removal. Batch-level Certificate of Analysis dispatched with every order.
rPET (recycled polyethylene terephthalate) is PET plastic that has been recovered from post-consumer products — primarily bottles — and reprocessed into new food-grade material. When properly decontaminated through SSP technology, rPET meets the same safety and quality standards as virgin PET, enabling true bottle-to-bottle circularity.
Post-consumer PET bottle flake that has been sorted, NIR-processed, metal-detected and quality-certified. Available to rPET converters requiring a clean, consistent intermediate input.
Decontaminated pellets produced from melt-phase extrusion. Suitable for non-food packaging applications and thermoforming. Pelletised and quality-tested to documented specification.
Our primary output. SSP-crystallised rPET pellets with full FDA LNO and EFSA 2022/1616 certification. The grade required by beverage brand owners for food-contact applications.
Building relationships with global brand owners, suppliers, and technology partners
Qualified flake from approved global suppliers. Every delivery tested against our full incoming specification.
Near-infrared optical sorting removes residual PVC, CPET and off-colour material — the final check before extrusion.
Twin-screw extrusion with vacuum devolatilisation and high-efficiency 50 μm melt filtration for maximum purity.
Solid State Polycondensation rebuilds IV to ≥ 0.76 dl/g and achieves >99.9% volatile removal — the step that earns FDA LNO.
In-line viscometer, FTIR and GC-MS. Batch CoA with every shipment.
