Hot-fill PET bottles are specially designed containers made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) that can withstand high temperatures during the filling process. These bottles are typically used in the food and beverage industry for products such as juices, sauces, and soups that require heating before packaging. The ability to endure hot-fill processes ensures the integrity and safety of the contents while extending shelf life.
