Q What is PET plastic sheet?
A Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is a highly transparent, strong, and thermoplastic material. The raw materials used to make PET are dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol. Compared to other plastics, PET plastic film has lower moisture absorption, higher tensile strength, and superior dimensional stability. Additionally, it boasts high transparency, high glossiness, and excellent gas barrier and UV resistance properties, as well as superior electrical performance. This makes it an ideal plastic for high-quality printing and lamination, and a great choice for high-performance plastic films and sheets. Based on the varying proportion of resin, PET can be divided into different categories such as APET sheets, RPET sheets, PETG sheets, GAG sheets, and BOPET film.

Q What is APET plastic?
A Amorphous Polyethylene Terephthalate (APET) plastic is a thermoplastic and eco-friendly material. It is degradable and highly recyclable, similar to paper. The chemical components of PET plastic are oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen. Once discarded, PET plastic packaging products will eventually break down into water and carbon dioxide after a certain period of time.

Q What is PETG plastic sheet?
A Polyethylene Terephthalate Glyco (PETG) plastic boasts excellent impact strength and toughness, with an impact strength that is three to ten times greater than polyacrylates. It also has high mechanical strength and superb flexibility, making it highly versatile for a range of processing applications. Additionally, the transparency of PETG is better than that of PVC sheets, and it boasts good gloss and ease of printing, making it an eco-friendly option.
-
Q What is GAG plastic sheet?
A GAG plastic is a three-layer material produced by co-extruding an appropriate proportion of middle layer APET and upper and lower layers of PETG raw materials. It is a cost-effective alternative to PETG plastic and is suitable for packaging boxes that require high-frequency heat sealing and gluing.
-
Q What is RPET plastic sheet?
A Recycled Polyethylene Terephthalate (RPET) plastic is made from discarded PET products and is a new type of environmentally friendly recycled sheet. Its raw material is sourced from waste plastic, making it cost-effective and providing a way to conserve raw materials while promoting environmental protection.

Q Where to buy PET plastic sheet?
A ONE PLASTIC is a leading manufacturer of PET plastic sheets in China, offering competitive PVC board sheet products to global clients. However, purchasing a small quantity (less than 8 sheets of PVC board sheet) from us may not be cost-effective due to the added logistics costs. We therefore suggest buying PVC SHEET from a local distributor or wholesaler near you. If you are interested in buying a larger quantity or becoming our distributor in your area, please send an email to
