PETG sheet, or Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol, is a clear plastic resin from the polyester family, frequently utilized in thermoforming applications. This material, offered by Industrial Plastic Supply as Vivak® PETG sheet, boasts excellent bending and vacuum forming properties, high impact strength, and is easy to fabricate. PETG is tougher than Acrylic, ITAR and RoHS compliant, and commonly applied in POP displays, various molds, and medical face shields.
What is Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG)?
Tough clear plastic sheet, used frequently in vacuum forming
PETG sheet is a plastic resin of the polyester family that is used to make thermoforming applications. PETG sheet is a clear resin that can be extruded into sheets. One of the most common applications of this plastic is in POP Displays, molds (food, candy, soap, candle), medical face shields, and more commonly seen in drinking water bottles.
