Key Trends in the Market

PET or polyethylene terephthalate is the chemical name for a thermoplastic polymer. PET bottles are created from polyethylene terephthalate, a plastic resin that is a type of polyester made by blending two monomers, typically modified ethylene glycol and purified terephthalic acid. One of the inherent properties of PET bottles is that unlike other plastic containers, they are strong while still being lightweight. They are easy to handle, economical, transparent, impact resistant, convenient for on-the-go consumption needs, and are likely to be easily recycled without leaving any harmful residues.

• The growth of the Asia Pacific PET bottles market is driven by growing demand from the food and beverages industry on account of the easy handling of PET bottles for salad dressing, water, juices, household cleaners, soft drinks, oil, personal care products, and medicines.
• The surging industries like personal care and food and beverages in countries like India, and Japan are further expected to bolster the market demand for PET bottles in the region.
• The increasing demand for bottled beverages on account of the growing inclination for modernisation and changing consumer dietary patterns is further expected to drive the Asia Pacific PET bottles market.
• The rising disposable incomes especially in emerging economies like India are encouraging consumption of PET bottles. Hectic lifestyles of consumers have increased their likelihood of choosing on-the-go beverages. This is driving the market growth of PET bottles in the region.
