00:00The future of PET and the challenges of the Battle-to-Battle cycle, with the involvement of experts in the academic sector and representatives of the retail sector,
00:17Coripet participates and commends Rimini with the R-PET Talks, deepening meetings dedicated to the theme of Battle-to-Battle.
00:25It means a bottle refusal, a bottle that has reached its end of life, so it has ceased its initial purpose of containing and preserving a liquid for food,
00:38so we give it a second life in the noblest possible scope, that is, we make it a new bottle suitable for direct contact with food.
00:49Between the state of the art and new European regulations for the recycling of PET, which since 2025 will require the collection of 77% of bottles and at least 25% of PET recycled in new bottles,
01:01Coripet in Ecomondo explores the theme of food safety and the central recycled PET for consumers.
01:08We already have strong indications that the pollution is very low, the substances we find are far below the food safety limits provided not only by the regulations,
01:22but also by the authoritative technical opinions, such as the American or Japanese, and the other thing that can be seen is that the quality of the collection influences a good reduction of this contamination.
01:41So today the European RPET with the most selective collection possible, a process that is increasingly controlled, we can say that we have a very high level of food safety.
01:55Maximum safety and quality, therefore, thanks to a rigorous and central role of the refusal management.
02:03There is a caution on the purchase of bottles of PET water, which would then be returned when the vacuum is given to the compactor.
02:17For us this could be an opportunity, because there is certainly an immediate advantage on the environment and health, there is an indirect advantage that could be a reduction of the tax on waste that on us consumers and users, as we know, is very serious.
