Packaging segment is projected to grow at fastest CAGR, in terms of value, during the forecast period.
The packaging sector is a crucial domain for Polyethylene Furanoate (PEF) due to its wide-ranging advantages. PEF emerges as a sustainable substitute for conventional packaging materials such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Its exceptional ability to resist gases like oxygen and carbon dioxide makes it an excellent choice for diverse packaging applications. PEF's impressive thermal and mechanical characteristics, alongside its recyclability and renewable origin, contribute to reducing environmental impact. This positions PEF as an eco-friendly alternative to standard plastics.
Bottles segment is projected to grow at fastest CAGR, in terms of value, during the forecast period.
Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) emerges as a promising contender in the bottle market, providing an eco-conscious substitute for conventional plastics such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Sourced from plants, PEF offers sustainability and heightened barrier properties, preserving beverage quality and extending shelf life. Its lightweight composition not only reduces material consumption but also cuts down on transportation expenses. While PEF aligns with current recycling systems, challenges including production scalability, cost-effectiveness, regulatory compliance, and consumer acceptance remain pivotal hurdles.
