Processing Technologies International (PTi) has announced the sale of a sheet extrusion system to Aserpet which represents a “major stepping stone” in the company’s expansion strategy.

It is PTi’s first sale in Turkey and the coextrusion system, which runs 750 kg/hr of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), also includes a roll stand, winder, and stacker.  

Aserpet, a recycler of PET flake for the packaging industry, purchased its first sheet extrusion line to help support the company’s entrance into the packaging industries.   

The Turkish-based firm will soon start manufacturing PET sheet roll stock.

This is a significant business deal that firmly positions us in yet another key global region,” ​said Patrick Johnsen, eastern regional sales manager at PTi.

“We’re excited about entering the Turkish market because it represents another important step in our global growth strategy​.”

PTi said it is exploring other business opportunities in Turkey, targeting PET, polypropylene (PP), polystyrene (PS), and barrier sheet extrusion systems for the packaging industry.
