This project entitled “Utilization of PET Bottle as Alternative Material for
Embossing Powder” was to develop an alternative embossing powder out of waste PET
(polyethylene terephthalate) bottles which adds to waste disposal problem. This innovation
seeks to help environment reduce the burden to disposing waste bottles and help the craft
industry to lessen the cost of raw materials and production through recycling. The process
involves pulverizing the waste PET bottles and converting it into fine powder and mixing
together with the precipitate mixture of distilled white vinegar and liquid floor polish to
finally form the embossing powder. The waste PET bottles used in the study are
environmentally friendly. To produce embossing powder were proven to be useful and
practical as an alternative embossing powder. The acceptability performance of the
produced embossing powder was evaluated by the Technological University of the
Philippines – Manila professors and students who are expert in the field of printing in terms
of functionality, workability, durability, safety, aesthetic and economy. Respondents were
composed of three (3) faculty/peers, and twenty-two (22) students taking up Bachelor of
Technology major in Print Media Technology. The mean ratings of the evaluation in the
seven criteria are 4.4 for functionality, 4.6 workability, 4.4 for durability, 4.2 for safety,
4.4 for aesthetic and 4.5 for economy, resulting in 4.4 overall mean which interprets a very
acceptable project study. The availability of materials, the technical expertise and the tools
and equipment used for producing the alternative embossing powder is found to be
effective and inexpensive compared to the commercial embossing powder.
