Product Overview
Eastman Cristal™ One is a copolyester designed to be fully compatible with the PET recycling stream. Thus, it enables brand owners to achieve recyclable cosmetics packaging that is tough and exhibits good chemical resistance. It is suitable for molding thick-walled transparent containers or parts (up to 9mm thickness), while maintaining clarity and color. For ISBM applications, Cristal One is recommended for thicker luxury bottles with complex shapes. Copolyester Cristal™ One meets the definition of resin identification code #1 (RIC1) as defined by the California Assembly Bill (#906) and by ASTM D7611. Other end-product attributes, including but not limited to size, color, auxiliary components, and availability of collection, may also impact recyclability.ApplicationsBottles-skin care pkgColor cosmetics packagingFragrance packagingJars-skin care pkgPersonal care & cosmetics packagingKey attributesAbility to mold thick partsExcellent processing capabilitesGood chemical resistanceGood gate aestheticsGood toughnessRecyclable with the PET streamTransparency Eastman Chemical Eastman Chemical Polymers and Resins,Copolymers,Polyesters Packaging applications
