Global Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) Resin Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) Resin market size is predicted to grow from US$ 4528 million in 2025 to US$ 5662 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.8% from 2025 to 2031.

The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.

Polybutylene Terephthalate (PBT) is semi-crystalline, white or off-white polyester similar in both composition and properties to polyethyleneterephthalate (PET). It is a thermoplastic engineering polymer that is used as an insulator in the electrical, electronics, automobile, Mechanical Equipment and precision instruments industries. Compared to PET (polyethylene terephthalate), PBT has slightly lower strength and rigidity, slightly better impact resistance, and a slightly lower glass transition temperature.

In this report, the volume of PBT is calculated by PBT neat resin, excluding PBT modified resin and PBT Compounds.

PBT is present in everyday life and is common in electrical, electronic and automotive components. PBT resin and PBT compound are the two types of products that are used in various applications. PBT resin is used to make PBT fiber as well as electronic parts, electrical parts, and auto parts. TV set accessories, motor cover sand motor brushes are some examples of the use of PBT compound.

The global PBT market is led by Asia Pacific, accounting for 59% global PBT production. Europe is the second-largest region-wise market, account for 20%.

At present, the top 3 manufacturers of PBT are Changchun, BASF and Sabic, with about 33% market shares.

PBT downstream is wide and recently PBT has acquired increasing significance in various fields of automotive, electrical & electronic and consumer goods applications. Globally, the PBT market is mainly driven by growing demand for automotive applications. Automotive accounts for nearly 44% of total downstream consumption of PBT.
