Southeast Asia Bio-Based Polyethylene Terephthalate Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The Southeast Asia bio-based polyethylene terephthalate market size is expected to grow at a CAGR of 12.40% between 2025 and 2034. The market is being driven by the growing demand for bio-based polyethylene terephthalate in the packaging industry owing to the growing trade of food, beverages, and pharmaceutical products.

Key Trends in the Market

Bio-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is a thermoplastic packaging product which is obtained from renewable raw materials and fossil fuels. Bio-based PET is costlier than the conventional PET but exhibits superior barrier and thermal properties. Bio-based polyethylene terephthalate is recyclable and contains around 30% monoethylene glycol (MEG). Further, the high breaking strength of the product makes it useful in the packaging sector, leading to a greater Southeast Asia bio-based polyethylene terephthalate market growth.

• The stringent regulations by governments in the region aimed towards curbing carbon emissions and reducing the impact of the packaging sector on the environment are likely to propel the demand for bio-based polyethylene terephthalate.
• There is heightened application of bio-based polyethylene terephthalate across various end-use industries including pharmaceuticals, textiles, and food, among others. The increasing sale of carbonated beverages, energy drinks, and alcoholic beverages in the region is further fuelling the Southeast Asia bio-based polyethylene terephthalate market.
• The growing expansion of the e-commerce industry is another crucial market driving trend aiding the demand for bio-based polyethylene terephthalate, as there is an increased demand for sustainable packaging options for products purchased online.
