PET VS PP PLASTIC
PET plastic cups are slightly better than PP containers when it comes to impact resistance. This may or may not be important to you in your business, but it does demonstrate a higher degree of durability and is more crack resistant.
Since PET containers provide a better oxygen barrier than PP containers, they can preserve the taste and the aroma of food placed in them, but PP containers provide a better barrier to moisture as well as alcohol or chemicals. Both PET and PP containers work well to resist acids or grease and oils.
