This document covers the design of any rigid PET packaging that does not fall within the definition of a PET bottle as outlined in Part 4 of this document, with respect to compatibility of the design with the state-of-the-art collection, sorting and recycling processes and useability of the recyclates in an application.
Packaging constituents and packaging components made of materials other than PET are also covered by this document as they need to be evaluated on compatibility with PET polymer recycling.
