Build a stronger, lighter, and greener future with Gurit PET

For decades, plywood, MDF, particleboard, and solid timber have dominated construction, transportation, furniture, and interiors. Today, Gurit PET structural foam core offers a lighter and more durable alternative.

“Made from up to 100 percent recycled PET, Gurit PET resists moisture, rot, swelling, and insect damage, making it ideal for humid environments, RVs, commercial vehicles, cabinetry, furniture, and building panels,” the IWF exhibitor explained.

"It is up to 60 to 70 percent lighter than MDF while delivering excellent strength-to-weight performance and high screw retention, helping reduce vehicle weight, improve fuel efficiency and EV range, and simplify handling and installation across applications. 

“Gurit PET also provides thermal insulation, strong compression and shear properties, and can be machined using standard woodworking tools. Laminated panels can match or exceed plywood’s screw retention while offering significant weight savings. 

“Sustainability is a key advantage. Manufactured from recycled plastic bottles and fully recyclable at end of life, a single 25 mm PET sheet can contain more than 350 recycled bottles, supporting customers’ ESG goals.”
