The article summarized a study comparing clear plastic tubes to other materials such as paper, glass, steel, aluminum, rubber, cork, etc. The comparison showed that clear plastic tubes wins every time! Several materials including LDPE, HDPE, PVC, Polystyrene, and PETG were named for their ability to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Petro Packaging Co.
