CPET (TempFLEX™) – Crystallized Polyethylene Terephthalate

One of the main advantages of CPET plastic is its wide temperature capability. TempFLEX™ is suited for applications that may be exposed to freezing temperatures as well as microwave and oven conditions. That range makes it a practical material choice for prepared meal packaging, food service trays, and other products where thermal performance is a requirement.

TempFLEX™ also delivers the processing characteristics manufacturers look for in thermoforming sheets. It offers thin-gauge capability, strong impact performance, and the consistency needed for efficient forming. For customers, that translates into a material that supports production goals while helping maintain product quality from one run to the next.

Another advantage is versatility. TempFLEX™ CPET is available in natural, black, and white, and can also be supplied with anti-static or anti-fog coatings based on application needs. If your packaging line or product environment requires specific visual, handling, or performance characteristics, Advanced Extrusion can help you evaluate the right material configuration.

TempFLEX™ serves a broad range of industries that need a dependable CPET plastic solution. In food packaging, it is a strong option for ovenable trays, microwave-ready containers, and freezer-to-oven packaging formats. In consumer and industrial packaging, it can be used for formed parts that need added strength and temperature resistance. It is also relevant for customers in medical, automotive, aerospace, electrical, construction, and transportation markets where material performance and process reliability are critical.

If you are developing a new package, replacing an existing material, or refining a current thermoforming process, Advanced Extrusion can help identify whether TempFLEX™ CPET is the right fit for your application.

Advanced Extrusion manufactures TempFLEX™ with the performance requirements of real production environments in mind. The material is offered in gauges from 0.008″ to 0.060″ and widths from 15″ to 54″, giving customers a practical range of options for thermoforming operations. Product characteristics such as shrinkage, tensile strength, flexural modulus, and intrinsic viscosity are all part of the material profile, helping support applications where consistency matters.

For customers in regulated or quality-sensitive industries, TempFLEX™ is also supported by standards and certifications referenced by Advanced Extrusion, including FDA, ISO, ASTM, GMP, and Kosher-related capabilities.

Choosing the right CPET plastic supplier is about more than material availability. It is about getting a product that performs, a team that understands thermoforming requirements, and a manufacturer that can support your production goals. Advanced Extrusion supplies TempFLEX™ CPET for customers who need dependable roll stock, responsive service, and material options suited to demanding applications.
