0.32mm walls and are produced in a cycle of around 2.75s. The partners are planning to have a system with an 8+8 stack mould ready around the middle of 2023. Several PET recycling technology companies


have provided equipment to preform production systems leader Husky Technologies during development of a technology Husky introduced in May called Recycled Melt to Preform (RMTP); this is offered as a module for use with its HyPET HPP5e system. At the time, Husky said that with one system already running in the field and the second soon to be delivered, this development marks the success- ful integration of a preform injection moulding system with melt decontamination unit – enabling the direct conversion of washed flake to preforms. Husky says that by eliminating the drying and melting steps associated with traditional rPET preform manufacturing, its solution facilitates the effective production of packaging made from 100% rPET. It says that bypassing rPET pellet production leads to 30% energy savings. Pedro Oliveira, Husky’s Business Manager for PET


Systems says it is possible to connect the HyPET HPP5e RMTP system to any melt decontamination/IV


boost solution on the market today. “This could be an Erema Advanced, as seen with our beta system, an Erema Prime that was included on a recently sold system, or a liquid-state polymerisation system from NGR that was used for our initial demo system. We are also exploring other in-line technologies enabling the direct link from washed flake to preform in a flexible and energy efficient manner.” David Hehenberger, Product Manager PET at


NGR, says: “We are going directly with the melt out of our LSP unit into the shooting pot of the injec- tion moulding machine. Therefore, we can save a lot of energy, space, material logistics, and more.”
