PETP (Ertalyte)

At Ingenia, we provide you with premium Ertalyte plastic cut-to-size and custom-fabricated. It’s a highly versatile, strong and lightweight plastic within the polyester family.

At Plasticut, we meet a wide range of your demands with PETP plastic, as it can be welded, joined and moulded.

We’re your go-to for machinery and industrial applications that require high-quality plastic.

Key Properties of PETP Plastic:

PETP plastic has a wide range of qualities, making it versatile, durable and high-performing for whatever your application. For example:

  • High Dimensional Stability: PETP retains its shape, so it can be precisely machined even in harsh conditions.
  • Low Moisture Absorption: It performs exceptionally well in wet and damp environments, especially in comparison to nylons or acetal.
  • Food Safe: PETP is physiologically inert and FDA-approved, making it ideal for the food and beverage sector.
  • High Mechanical Strength: It is rigid and hard with excellent resistance to wear, abrasion and acids.
  • Low Coefficient of Friction: PETP plastic is ideal for moving structural parts as it doesn’t produce much friction.

Where Is PETP Plastic Used?

PETP is a high-quality and durable plastic used across a wide range of industries and found in daily items, including:

Food and Beverage Packaging:

One of the most common uses of PETP plastic is food and beverage packaging (bottled water, peanut butter jars and condiments) as it is a good barrier against moistrue and oxygen.

Textiles and Apparel:

PETP can be spun into fibers, producing a polyester material, which is then used for everyday items like clothing, carpets, pillow fillings and parachutes.

Mechanical Engineering and Manufacturing:

Ertralyte and PETP is high dimensional and has low moisture absorption, which is why it’s used for machine gears, conveyor belts and precision-machined mechanical components that require low friction.

Pharmaceutical:

PETP is chemically resistant, so it can withstand sterilisation and is often used for medicine bottles, pill containers, test kits and vials.

Electronics:

As it is electrically insulating, Ertralyte is frequently used to manufacture electrical switches and motor houses. In renewable energy, it is often used as a protective backsheet for solar panels.

Automotive:

PETP is lighter than metal but still rigid, which makes it useful in reducing vehicle weight and improving fuel efficiency. It is often used to make engine covers, windshield wiper arms and headlamp reflectors.

Media:

It can be stretched into sheets and used as photographic film or X-ray films.
