Reduce cost & environmental footprint of PET

By enhancing the molecular structure of PET during processing, our solution minimizes the material required for the same performance, cutting down production expenses and resource consumption. This streamlined approach not only lowers the environmental footprint of PET packaging but also aligns seamlessly with existing production systems, enabling companies to achieve sustainability goals without operational disruptions. With Keiryo, less truly becomes more—more efficiency, more savings, and more progress toward a better future.

Performance increase unlocks two value creation pathways

USE CASE ONE

Achieving the same with fewer resources

Reduce weight and maintain the properties
Our patented processing technology leverages advanced polymer rheology science to optimize the functional performance of materials, allowing us to reduce material usage while maintaining critical properties. This means achieving the same product performance with fewer resources, offering significant cost savings and sustainability benefits.

Among those benefits:

Reduce transportation costs

Maintain top load mechanical strength

Maintain barrier and thermal properties
