PET Preform Moulds: Everything You Need to Know for Packaging

In the world of packaging, PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) has become the gold standard. The demand for PET bottles has skyrocketed especially in beverages, edible oils, cosmetics, household cleaners, and pharmaceuticals. At the center of this booming industry are PET preform moulds, the heart of every bottle-making operation.

PET preforms are the intermediate product used to manufacture PET bottles through a process called stretch blow moulding. These small, test-tube-like shapes are produced using injection moulding.
