Why Choose Clear PET
Clear PET — Transparent Rigid Packaging for Full Product Visibility
Clear PET (polyethylene terephthalate) packaging is the material for applications where full product transparency is the primary packaging objective. Unlike windowed paperboard packaging that provides a partial view, clear PET creates completely transparent structures — the packaging disappears and only the product is visible. This total transparency is the strongest possible purchase-confidence tool for visually appealing products.
We produce clear PET packaging in folded box formats (clamshell, tuck-clear, and sleeve formats) and rigid thermoformed formats (trays, inserts, and blister components). The optical clarity of virgin PET is exceptional — comparable to glass at a fraction of the weight.
Clear PET Packaging Formats
Folded clear PET boxes — also called acetate boxes — are produced by die-cutting clear PET sheet and folding with a paperboard base or header card. Clamshell PET packaging uses two thermoformed halves that snap together. Tuck-clear format uses a clear body with a paperboard header for hanging display. Blister packaging uses a thermoformed PET cavity sealed to a printed backer card. Each format serves different product types and retail display requirements.
PET vs PVC for Clear Packaging
PET has largely replaced PVC (polyvinyl chloride) in clear packaging applications because PET is recyclable in standard #1 plastic streams while PVC is not readily recyclable and contains chlorine chemistry that complicates recycling. PET provides comparable optical clarity, rigidity, and food-safety to PVC while offering significantly better environmental profile. We use PET exclusively for clear packaging — we do not produce PVC packaging.

Clear PET Packaging in Utah — FAQs
Is clear PET packaging food-safe?
Yes. PET (identified by the #1 recycling symbol) is an FDA-approved food contact material used globally for beverage bottles, food trays, and food packaging. Food-grade PET for direct food contact is specified with appropriate additive-free formulations.
Can clear PET packaging be recycled?
Yes. PET is recyclable in standard #1 plastic recycling streams available in most US municipalities. Pure PET packaging without added paperboard components achieves the highest recyclability rates.
Can printing be applied to clear PET packaging?
Yes. Screen printing, UV digital printing, and hot stamping can be applied to clear PET surfaces. Combined with a printed paperboard base or header, clear PET packaging achieves brand communication while maintaining product transparency.
What is the difference between clear PET and acetate?
