Top 3 Prominent Companies in the Global Polyethylene Furanoate Market Explored by EMR

In the forecast period of 2022-2027, the global polyethylene furanoate market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.4%. As per the analysis by Expert Market Research, the market is expected to be driven by the increasing demand for eco-friendly packaging materials.

The major drivers of the industry are the vast applications of polyethylene furanoate in packaging, from personal care and food packaging to beverage and household care packaging as well. The increasing awareness amongst consumers regarding sustainable and environment-friendly packaging is driving the growth of the market significantly. With the regulations on landfills getting stricter around the world and in Europe especially, manufacturers are shifting towards recyclable and bio-degradable plastics for packaging.

Adding to this, the ban on single-use plastic in many countries like the United Kingdom, Taiwan, Zimbabwe and New Zealand and several other states in the United States of America, like Hawaii, New York and California, is significantly increasing the demand for polyethylene furanoate. The Asia Pacific and European regions are the largest users of polyethylene furanoate due to several factors like increasing environmental awareness, strict regulations, and expanding research and development investments.

Many research institutions are coming together to develop new eco-friendly alternatives of packaging to meet the increasing demand. Polyethylene furanoate, which has tremendous applications in the packaging industry, can be very useful in solving the resource scarcity problem. The governments of various countries are working towards reducing the usage of non-renewable materials. The European Union took the decision to reduce the use of single-use plastic goods by 90% by the end of 2021. Such steps are bound to help the polyethylene furanoate market immensely. With the COVID-19 pandemic, the market has taken a slight hit due to the reduced exports across countries and the lockdowns implemented worldwide. However, the pandemic has also made people more conscious about their daily activities like shopping. They are more concerned about the environmental effects, landfill decomposition and recyclability, and are moving towards bio-based alternatives.
