Factors affecting Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) supply and prices

1. Raw Material Costs
PET is primarily made from purified terephthalic acid (PTA) and monoethylene glycol (MEG). Fluctuations in the prices of these raw materials directly impact PET production costs. For instance, a surge in crude oil prices increases the cost of MEG, leading to higher PET prices globally.

2. Global Demand and Consumption Trends
PET demand is closely tied to the beverage, packaging, and textile industries. An increase in bottled water and soft drink consumption drives PET usage. Similarly, the rise in e-commerce and packaged foods fuels demand for PET containers and films. High demand periods can tighten supply and push prices upward.

3. Production Capacity and Plant Maintenance
PET supply is affected by the operational efficiency of manufacturing plants. Scheduled maintenance, unexpected shutdowns, or capacity constraints can reduce output. Conversely, new plant additions or technological upgrades increase supply, which may stabilize or lower prices.

4. Environmental Regulations
Stricter environmental policies regarding plastic production and recycling can impact PET supply. Regulations limiting plastic waste or mandating recycled content may increase production costs and influence market availability. Companies adapting to these norms may pass additional costs to consumers.

5. Trade Policies and Logistics
Import/export tariffs, sanctions, and shipping disruptions affect the global movement of PET. For instance, high freight costs or port congestion can delay supply and create regional price disparities. Trade agreements can also influence the flow of raw materials and finished PET products.

6. Technological Developments
Advancements in PET production, such as catalysts improving yield or innovations in recycling, can influence supply efficiency. High adoption of PET recycling reduces dependency on virgin raw materials, which may help stabilize prices in the long term.

7. Demand and Uses
PET is widely used in packaging, textiles, and industrial applications:
• Beverage bottles: The largest consumption segment globally.
• Food packaging: PET films and trays preserve freshness and extend shelf life.
• Textiles: PET fibers (polyester) are essential for clothing and home furnishings.
• Engineering applications: PET sheets and films are used in electrical insulation and industrial components.
