I need some info on how PET bottles are turned into Takalon to make things such as cosmetics brushes.

Asked by ava (985points) July 8th, 2010

What is the process by which a PET bottle is turned into something else? Is the entire process a ‘green’ process? If someone could get me info on what the whole process of turning PET into something else (specifically Takalon for cosmetics brushes) that would be awesome!!!

There are two excellent wikipedia articles that explain the process, Poly ethylene Terephthalate and PET bottle recycling
