Around 779,000 tons of PET are collected in the USA every year and around 514,000 tons remain in the country. Approximately 295,000 tons thereof are processed to make rPET for direct food contact. Half of the rPET is produced using VACUREMA® technology from EREMA, which corresponds to a market share of 50%. In Europe the market share in this segment has also already reached 30%. All in all there are more than 150 VACUREMA® systems in use around the world, producing high-quality repellets and end products such as films, with an overall annual capacity of around 1 million tonnes.
