Growing demand for PET from the packaging industry is one of the significant factors influencing the market growth.

Market Size – USD 43.52 billion in 2018, Market Growth - CAGR of 9.3%, Market Trends – Growing demand from the APAC region

New York, February 13, 2020 - The global Paraxylene (PX) market is expected to reach USD 97.69 Billion by 2027, according to a new report by Reports and Data. The growth of the market is attributed to the growing applications of paraxylene (PX) amongst the end-user industries.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a polymer produced from the organic chemicals ethylene glycol and terephthalic acid. It is a lightweight and robust plastic extensively used for packaging foods and beverages, particularly juices, soft drinks, and water. Moreover, it is popular for packaging peanut butter, salad dressings, cooking oils, shampoo, mouthwash, liquid hand soap, and window cleaner, among various other items. Special grades of polyethylene terephthalate are used for carry-home food containers and readymade food trays used in the oven or microwave.

The increasing use of PET in the textile industry is likely to drive the growth of the market in the upcoming years. The fabrics made from polyester fiber chain possess good elasticity, shape retention, wrinkle resistance, exceptional wash & wear performance, washability, and longevity, among others, and as a result, finds extensive application in various types of apparel fabrics. It is used to make fashionable dresses, weather-resistant clothing, and is a preferred material for children’s wear. PET fiber is frequently blended with other fibers such as cotton, to get the combined benefits of both materials. It provides better tear-resistant as compared to cotton or other materials used in making clothing items. At present, over half of the global synthetic fiber is made from this PET.
