| Test protocol EPBP has developed a test protocol for testing new PET bottle innovations. This protocol focuses on testing specific properties of R-PET that may be affected due to the presence of non-PET components in the PET recycling stream.
Attention: EPBP has amended the PET Recycling Test Protocol in October 2011 with a updated list of approved virgin PET resins to be used as reference. They are all standard 0.80 IV non reheat resins. See also table 3 on page 8. |

| Quick Tests EPBP has developed a series of rapid and low-cost techniques for the quick assessment of PET bottles. The quick tests can be easily executed at in-house laboratory facilities. The results of the quick tests are purely indicative. |

| * QT 502 - sink float separation |
| * QT 504 - glue separation |
