                   HOWEVER, THEY ALL GET BUNDLED TOGETHER,
Although Alpek plays an important role as the largest producer
  and recycler of PET in the Americas, we’re not the only ones
                     involved in its lifecycle.

So rather than hearing it from us, we’d like to introduce you to
some people that can better explain The Case for PET based
            on how it touches their lives every day.

              These are their stories.
«PET is simply a
better product»
For a while now, we wanted to sell more of our berries in
the local supermarkets, but packaging was a problem. We
used carton but there were a lot of disadvantages, for
example if the package got too wet, like from the humidity
in the supermarket refrigerators, it would lose its
resistance or leave our berries exposed to mold. Also,
since it’s not transparent, it was hard to highlight the
quality of our product.

Last year though, we started working with PET packaging
and things are looking up. The package is nice and
resistant, but is also much cheaper! We are using the
savings in other parts of the business to keep growing,
but I’m not going to lie, I’ve also used it for other things
like computers for my kids homeschool and kept a couple
of dollars in my pocket at the end of the day.

«PET keeps
me safe»
The current health emergency caused by the Coronavirus
has taught us many things about our life and ourselves in
a very short period of time. Something I didn’t expect to
learn was the importance of PET for us, as doctors and
patients. To me PET was just the water bottle I used when
running, but it turns out that it’s also present in many
other things, starting with the safety goggles and
facemask I must wear at work.

It’s odd how something like a virus we can’t even see
showed us how vulnerable we really are. Today I trust the
PET in those goggles and facemask to get home safely
and be with my two daughters and husband. Obviously,
we were not expecting this pandemic, but PET helped us
face it head-on.

«Educating towards
smarter choices»
From my perspective there have never been more
options in terms of the products we consume every day.
I go to the supermarket and for just one thing, let’s say
orange juice, there are like 3 different packaging
options: PET, glass and cardboard.

My job is to encourage my students by exploring the
current problems we face. After doing a ton of research,
I’ve found that the general misconceptions around PET’s
sustainability are wrong. It is fully recyclable and
recycled at the same rates as its alternatives and made
without hazardous materials. More importantly, I have
the responsibility to teach my kids to dispose whichever
juice bottle they choose, to ensure it gets back to them
another day.

«We should
think about the
big picture»
I think society has focused on solving the waste
problem, and we definitely need to solve that, but we
shouldn’t lose sight of the real problem facing our
generation: climate change. Said differently, if all we do
is recycle more, does that mean we are doing less harm
to the environment?

More and more people are doing their part, choosing
fully recyclable materials, putting garbage in the right
place, and starting action in their communities, but I
think that we should also start questioning corporations
about everything that happens before and after we as
consumers make our choice. Fixing the amount of
carbon emissions generated to make the green glass
bottle my sparkling water comes in, and how much
more will be released when it’s recycled, now that’s big
picture stuff.

«PET is my
livelihood»
I know it might not sound very attractive, but my job is
to find and separate PET from the rest of your garbage.
Why? Because certain people are willing to pay me good
money for it. There are collection points all around my
city, they buy the PET from me, and then they sell that
material to a recycling plant. I guess it’s good business
for them too, because they never stop coming for more
and more PET.

I tend to focus on PET because contrary to glass and
aluminum, I can find it easily, separate it without much
risk, and carry it since it’s so light and compactable. I
definitely don’t miss getting tetanus shots.

My work allows me to put food on the table for my
family and send my children to school, so I’m very proud
of it. It also gives me great pleasure to see the streets
clean, knowing that in some way, my effort contributed
to achieving that.

«We have
a clear goal»
I have proudly been part of Alpek for the last 4 years.
Sometimes I’m questioned by my family about my work
because they’ve heard negative stories surrounding
plastics. But I know that PET is unlike any other plastic.
I’m convinced that for us to achieve a true change in our
society, the first thing we need is real information, so I
actually see these discussions and questions as
opportunities to share the data I have.

I recently had the chance to log-in to a Webcast where
Pepe Valdez, Alpek’s CEO, talked about the company’s
five-year strategy. It was very focused on increasing the
amount of rPET we make, and helping meet our
customers’ goals. These type of things make me proud
to be part of the Alpek family.
