PP Packaging-Cups

PTi is a pioneer in supplying high capacity co-extrusion sheet systems used for inline thermoforming of deep-drawn PP beverage cups. Technology has evolved among thermoformer equipment producers to levels that permit operating machines at higher cycle rates with larger tooling platens, thus requiring higher in-feed rates of extruded sheet. As these trends continue, PTi’s engineering driven solutions will provide sheet extrusion systems specifically configured to fulfill these capacity requirements.
