Amorphous Polyethylene Terephthalate Market Analysis 2020-2027:

Amorphous polyethylene terephthalate is a thermoplastic sheet, which is an effective barrier to oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. It is mainly used in packaging businesses, due to which it has higher demand. It possesses physical properties such as strength, inertness, stiffness, lightweight, clear appearance, low flavor absorption, and recyclable properties. It is non-toxic, biodegradable, and cost-effective polymer, highly used in food & beverages industry for packaging, cosmetics, personal care products, and pharmaceuticals.

Market scope and structure analysis:

COVID-19 scenario analysis:

• This pandemic has created panic-like situation, and lockdown is prevailing across the world.
• Attributed to the global lockdown, industries have been shut down from the last 1-2 months, leading to losses.
• The amorphous polyethylene terephthalate market is undergoing crisis due to low demand for its major end-user industry, which is food & beverages, where its usage has much higher rate than in any other industry. F&B has been under shutdown situation and is expected to remain stagnant for more time as governments have banned the sale of fast foods. 

Top impacting factors: Market scenario analysis, trends, drivers, and impact analysis

Rising demand for packaging films in the food & beverages industry due to properties, such as lightweight and moisture resistance, has become the important factor for driving the growth of the market globally. Moreover, increasing demand for amorphous polyethylene terephthalate in textile, automotive, and electronics has also been the reason behind its high growth rate. In the pharma industry, amorphous polyethylene terephthalate is used for capsule and tablet packaging, which increased its demand. There is increasing demand for amorphous polyethylene terephthalate for bottles manufacturing for different uses such as mineral water bottle, carbonated soft drink bottles, and ready to drink tea/ coffee cups, and others.

There is growing need for bio-degradable and eco-friendly packaging material across the globe, but due to variation in environment-related rules & regulations in different regions, companies are not able to cope up with these variations. Strict regulations regarding the use of plastic also hinder the growth of the market. Fluctuating price of raw material is also a challenge for the market growth. 

Manufacturers of soft drinks, pharmaceuticals, and alcohols prefer amorphous polyethylene materials over traditional packaging due to their flexibility, low cost, and high inventory capacity. Outbreaks in synthetic methods for the production of amorphous polyethylene terephthalate provide excellent impact tolerance and durability. It has great resistance to chemicals and solvents, which gives improved precision.     

The regions analyzed are North America (the U.S. and Canada), Europe (Germany, the UK, France, and the Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, and the Rest of Asia Pacific), Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, and the Rest of LATAM) and the Middle East & Africa. Asia-Pacific has a major share in the market, and North America accounts for the second largest in terms of market share due to high demand from food & beverages and pharmaceuticals.
