Given the unprecedented uncertainty caused by the global pandemic, Evertis, a global film producer known primarily for food applications, reminds the industry of their portfolio for medical applications such as face-shields. As this situation is dynamic and uncertain, Evertis is pleased to provide materials to produce essential personal protective equipment that promotes the health and well-being of workers, patients and society in general.

With worldwide distribution, Evertis supports customers throughout Europe and the Americas. In order to meet increasing demands of PETG films for face shields to protect against the COVID-19 virus, Evertis is starting up a new line, at their plant in Portugal, adding 12,000 tons per year. Line is due to initiate production in October of this year.

The IMG Group’s expansion plans are global. The Portuguese-based group also installed new capacity in their other two plants, Curitiba, Brazil and Monterrey, Mexico. Both plants increased capacity by 10,000 tons per year, Brazil as of April 2020 and Mexico just recently in August. Regarding the United States market, the convenient location of the Monterrey, Mexico facility allows the rapid response required to support the critical need for high quality, optical grade materials. Furthermore, additional capacity within the United States is in process for 2021.

Evertis’ expertise has helped guide the optimal fit and function of these materials for PPE (personal protective equipment):

         - PET

         - PETG

         - GAG

Calibers available range from 7 mil to 35 mil. All structures can be supplied with anti-fog and anti-block additives.

Due to the Evertis’ coextrusion capabilities, the available raw material options are versatile with 100% virgin resin or virgin resin in combination with recycled content.

Evertis products are considered essential goods to support not only the food packaging industry, but also healthcare applications. Evertis has maintained normal operations and supported employee wellbeing throughout the pandemic while implementing critical precautions in response to the increased demand for hygiene, health care and food packaging products.

PET is fully recyclable and Evertis is committed to give PET a second life while guaranteeing it meets the quality and performance each application requires. PET face shields not only protect our front-line workers, but they are an environmentally friendly solution supporting a circular economy and providing the additional benefits of C02 and energy consumption reductions.

In order to meet increasing demands of PETG films for face shields to protect against the COVID-19 virus, Evertis is starting up a new line, at their plant in Portugal, adding 12,000 tons per year. Line is due to initiate production in October of this year.

The IMG Group’s expansion plans are global. The Portuguese-based group also installed new capacity in their other two plants, Curitiba, Brazil and Monterrey, Mexico. Both plants increased capacity by 10,000 tons per year, Brazil as of April 2020 and Mexico just recently in August. Regarding the United States market, the convenient location of the Monterrey, Mexico facility allows the rapid response required to support the critical need for high quality, optical grade materials. Furthermore, additional capacity within the United States is in process for 2021.

Evertis’ expertise has helped guide the optimal fit and function of these materials for PPE (personal protective equipment):

         - PET

         - PETG

         - GAG

Calibers available range from 7 mil to 35 mil. All structures can be supplied with anti-fog and anti-block additives.

Due to the Evertis’ coextrusion capabilities, the available raw material options are versatile with 100% virgin resin or virgin resin in combination with recycled content.

Evertis products are considered essential goods to support not only the food packaging industry, but also healthcare applications. Evertis has maintained normal operations and supported employee wellbeing throughout the pandemic while implementing critical precautions in response to the increased demand for hygiene, health care and food packaging products.

PET is fully recyclable and Evertis is committed to give PET a second life while guaranteeing it meets the quality and performance each application requires. PET face shields not only protect our front-line workers, but they are an environmentally friendly solution supporting a circular economy and providing the additional benefits of C02 and energy consumption reductions.

A sustainable future isn’t possible without PET, and since everyone’s health is paramount, Evertis is ensuring there is little disruption to the supply chain of PET films.

PET is fully recyclable and Evertis is committed to give PET a second life while guaranteeing it meets the quality and performance each application requires. PET face shields not only protect our front-line workers, but they are an environmentally friendly solution supporting a circular economy and providing the additional benefits of C02 and energy consumption reductions.

A sustainable future isn’t possible without PET, and since everyone’s health is paramount, Evertis is ensuring there is little disruption to the supply chain of PET films.
