More than 70% of medical consumables in use today utilize PET and other medical grade polymers for their production. Aluminum and glass beverage container production, releases 3-5 times the C02 into the environment than PET container production and critically requires 3-5 times the blue water to produce. Furthermore, PET production avoids the unsustainable impacts of deforestation associated with paper composites and the environmental toll related to mining aluminum. Materials like PET are clearly the superior choice," said John Galt, Husky's Chief Executive Officer.
