From the idea to the prototype is the idea behind our tradition in R&D.
Intensive, focalized and continuous R&D activities are at the base of our innovation capability. Highly trained technical team, modern high specialized laboratory unit supports a wide range of extrusion and injection pilot units used to simulate different chemistry and different processes in order to obtain new properties and new PET based products: in the last year our R&D unit has improved its capability towards r-PET to generate solution supportive to the circularity of PET.
Technical Area
Our R&D unit is equipped with the latest state of the art equipment to have the widest possibility for internal and third party R&D project:
