Over the forecasted period of 2022 to 2032, the worldwide polyethylene terephthalate market (Marché du polyéthylène téréphtalate) is predicted to expand at a steady CAGR of 3.4%. The global market is anticipated to grow from USD 27.1 billion in 2021 to USD 28.6 billion in 2022. Furthermore, by 2032, the business is expected to generate close to USD 40 billion.
Polyethylene Terephthalate popularly known as PET is a thermoplastic polymer resin produced due to the reaction of raw materials such as mono ethylene glycol (MEG) and purified terephthalic acid. This material is known to exhibit exceptional barrier properties towards moisture and water. Polyethylene Terephthalate finds applications across diverse industries such as automotive, food, and beverage packaging, and electronics, among others.
Over the recent years, Reliance Industries have announced an opening in Dahej, Gujrat, for making polyester plastic. Furthermore, the company is also expected to commission a 650KTA polyethylene terephthalate (PET) resin capacity and purified terephthalic acid (PTA) plant. It will increase their global share by almost four percent and would also lower the operational cost and achieve full chain margins.
