PETG (Polyethylene terephthalate) is a transparent thermoform plastic that offers cost-effective vacuum formed parts with deep draws and precise details. PETG is
significantly less prone to cracking/chipping than acrylic (Plexiglas) and costs significantly less than polycarbonate. It is used commercially for vacuum forming all
kinds of clear plastic parts including blister and clamshell packaging, point-of-purchase retail displays, and 3-D signage. PETG is also FDA food safe and is commonly
used for making chocolate and candy molds.
