Technavio's market research report identifies that the increasing demand for polyethylene naphthalate from the packaging industry will be one of the primary growth drivers for the global polyethylene naphthalate market till 2021. Polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) is widely used in flexible food packaging because it is suitable for bottling beverages that are vulnerable to oxidation such as carbonated drinks, beer, and wine. It aids in longer shelf life as it can survive numerous high-temperature washes. It also provides superior durability, which is necessary for numerous refilling cycles. With the rising demand for beverages such as wine, carbonated drinks, non-carbonated drinks, and beer and dairy products such as milk yogurt, buttermilk, and condensed milk, the rigid packaging industry is witnessing significant growth. This in turn, will boost the demand for PEN from the rigid packaging industry, fueling market growth. Technavio's market research analysts predict that this market will grow at a CAGR of more than 8% by 2021.
One of the key trends that will drive the growth prospects for the global polyethylene naphthalate market during the projected period is the rising application of polyethylene naphthalate in solar cell protection. PEN is used as a substrate for new solar cells. It is highly suitable for the formation of superstrates due to its transparency. Moreover, it also enhances the performance of the products due to its good optical and suitable surface features and good electrical properties.
The polyethylene naphthalate market is characterized by the presence of few major players. The international vendors are trying to differentiate their products in terms of feature, price, service, and performance. This will help them gain a competitive edge among other vendors. The major vendors are forming strategic alliances with end-users and supply final products to their end-users through various distribution channels.
Key vendors in this market are -
Other prominent vendors in the market include 3M, BP, CBC, DFT DuraFiber Technologies, FE Thin Films, GTS Flexible, KOLON PLASTICS, PPI Adhesive Products, SASA, Shell Chemical, SMP Corporation, Thermo Fisher Scientific, and Teraoka Seisakusho.
The packaging industry extensively consumes PEN due to its anti-scalping properties, which makes the packaging safe for food-contact applications. The demand for PEN is increasing due to the rapid urbanization and changing food habits. The adoption of processed foods and the rise in health awareness is driving the growth of the food packaging industry. This in turn, will boost the demand for PEN in the forthcoming years.
The demand for PEN is high in major segments of APAC such as the manufacturing and consumer goods because it facilitates better performance of the end-products. The market for polyethylene naphthalate will continue to grow during the estimated period due to the rising demand for electronics, packaging, premium automotive tires, and beverage bottling industries. PEN is also used in various applications such as thermal polythene sheet, marine, and in pressure sensitive adhesive tapes.
