Innovation and Sustainability in Strapping: Why Choose P.E.T. over P.P. vs. P.P.?

At Sorsa, we have been leading the transition to more sustainable and efficient solutions in the packaging world for more than two decades.

  • Polyester strapping (P.E.T.) stands out for being much more environmentally friendly than polypropylene strapping (P.P.). Why?
    • 100% recycledP.E.T. is the only material that allows the production of quality strapping for automatic machines using the recycled material 100%.
    • Its raw material comes mainly from the recycling of plastic bottles that we deposit in the yellow containers.
    • Superior technical characteristicsHigher strength, better elongation, insensitivity to extreme temperatures and, in addition, more economical.

In comparison, P.P. strapping can only guarantee quality with a maximum of 20% of recycled material.

Since the early 2000s, Sorsa has been a pioneer in Europe developing technology to manufacture recycled P.E.T. 100% strapping, contributing to a more sustainable world.

In addition, the automatic machines, designed, manufactured and supplied by Sorsa since the early 80's of the last century, are delivered with a double system for the use of these two types of strapping, and offer the possibility of using both materials with a simple programming modification.
