PET bottles are made from polyethylene terephthalate, a plastic resin which is a form of polyester formed by combining two monomers, namely, modified ethylene glycol and purified terephthalic acid. One of the intrinsic properties of PET bottles is that unlike other plastic containers, they are light in weight but high in strength. They are economical, impact resistant, transparent, easy to handle, convenient for on-the-go consumption needs, and can be easily recycled without leaving any harmful residues
