DiamondClear™ is a new oxygen scavenging material that is blended directly into PET to create clear, high gloss monolayer containers with exceptional barrier to oxygen. ConAgra Foods adopted DiamondClear for Hunt’s ketchup bottles to replace older multi-layer PET technology. Advantages of DiamondClear are elimination of delamination spoilage, ability to lightweight (12% in the case of 46oz bottles) and barrier performance.
