Environmental Hazards of CPET to Restrict Market Growth

The material mainly used for the production of the ready meal trays are plastics such as polypropylene (PP) and crystallized PET (CPET). CPET requires several years to degrade, which is a major restraint in the plastic ready meal trays market. The high density and large sized trays require more time to biodegrade, which may affect environmental conditions for a long periods of time. When exposed to sunlight, polyethylene polymer chains become fragile, and then turn into microscopic granules. Some scientists doubt whether these granules ever decompose fully. This may adversely affect marine and terrestrial environments, and pose a risk of infiltration of plastic particles in the food chain. In order to overcome this challenge, some of the companies have already started manufacturing CPET trays from recycled PET material. However, despite being a highly recyclable material, PET is still not fully recycled in even the most developed countries.
