Global Amorphous Polyethylene Terapthalate Market: Overview

Polyethylene terapthalate (PET) is a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyesters and is used in liquid containers, drinks, packaging and synthetic fibers. PET may exist both as amorphous and as semi-crystalline, depending on its thermal and processing conditions. PET may appear opaque, white and transparent depending on its crystalline and amorphous structure. Amorphous Polyethylene terapthalate (APET) is majorly used in packaging due to moisture and water barrier capability and moreover, the polymer can be recycled. APET is mostly preferred thermoplastic as it possesses clear appearance, low flavor absorption, high strength and low price. APET also acts as an effective barrier to nitrogen, carbon dioxide, and oxygen.

Global Amorphous Polyethylene Terapthalate Market: Growth Factors

A considerable augment in the demand and popularity for the usage of APET in food and beverage industries for packaging is one of the major factor responsible for the growth of the APET market. Growing application of APET due to its physical properties like lightweight, optical clarity, inertness, and high strength along with increasing popularity of ready to eat food products, changing lifestyle and changing food habits, increased use of capsule and tablet packaging, are fuelling the growth of the APET market further.

However, the changing environmental rules and regulations in different countries across the globe and volatility in the costs of raw materials are hindrances in the expansion of the APET market. Replacement of the traditional packaging in coming years can be one of the major growth factor resulting in an increased use of APET.
