PRESS RELEASE MAS iQonicTwin HyperPET

In the Hyper­PET con­fig­u­ra­tion, poly­con­den­sa­tion occurs upstream of extru­sion:

1. RPET flakes are pre-heat­ed and dried in a crys­tal­liz­er.
2. The MOBY reac­tor applies infrared radi­a­tion under vac­u­um, reduc­ing mois­ture and adjust­ing IV to the tar­get lev­el for bot­tle-grade appli­ca­tions.
3. Stored heat reduces extru­sion ener­gy needs and increas­es through­put.

Key Advantages:

• extreme­ly short dwell time in the SSP
• IV sta­bi­liza­tion of the RPET flakes
• Nitro­gen-free, no addi­tion­al oper­at­ing resources except elec­tric­i­ty are required
• Sim­pli­fied oper­a­tion and com­pact foot­print
• Ener­gy-effi­cient process

Breaking the Bottle-to-Bottle Limitations

While tra­di­tion­al food-grade PET recy­cling relies on “bot­tle-to-bot­tle” process­es, Hyper­PET extends capa­bil­i­ties to future “tray-to-bot­tle” recy­cling. This allows for the pro­cess­ing of both bot­tle and PET tray regrind, either alone or blend­ed, there­by expand­ing the feed­stock pool and reduc­ing reliance on post-con­sumer bot­tles.

Operational and Economic Benefits

The MAS iQ Hyper­PET solu­tion offers:

• Sta­ble, high-qual­i­ty pel­lets with con­sis­tent IV, col­or, and low AA
• Com­pli­ance with the strictest food-con­tact reg­u­la­tions
• Reduced OPEX thanks to ener­gy sav­ings and oper­a­tional sim­pli­fi­ca­tion
• Greater sourc­ing flex­i­bil­i­ty, improv­ing ROI

Flexible Capacities

iQon­icTwin Hyper­PET is avail­able in three capac­i­ties, mak­ing it suit­able for both pilot lines and indus­tri­al-scale appli­ca­tions.

MAS also now offers a rPET SSP solu­tion and a rPET Regran solu­tion, which are part of the new inno­v­a­tive MAS port­fo­lio.

Official Launch

The iQon­icTwin Hyper­PET solu­tion will be pre­sent­ed at K Show 2025, Düs­sel­dorf, Octo­ber 8–15, Hall 9, Booth D30, with live con­sul­ta­tions from the MAS team and PET recy­cling spe­cial­ist Chris­t­ian Schi­avolin.
