4 (toughness) Easy to fabricate Looking for a durable, weather-resistant material to produce eye-catching graphics, advertising or POP marketing? All signs point to plastics. No pre-drying required (with Mustang and PETG) Recyclable do not contain Bisphenol-A (BPA) Chemical resistant Polyester Terephthalate Glycol Modified (PETG Copolymer) Polyester film Polystyrene (high impact screen and digital grade) (PS) Polyurethane (PU/PUR) Vinyl Considering the total carbon footprint, including costs of raw materials, manufacture, transport, fabricate, install, maintain, plastics compare favorably with more traditional materials. Also, plastics are safer to handle and install. When you consider that most plastics are readily recyclable, they can become the most environmentally responsible and safest choice for many demanding signage applications. If a single store replaced its shelves with 10,000 pounds of PETG copolyester shelving, the energy saved could power five homes or take 3.3 cars off the road every year.
