The Gulf Cooperation Council(GCC) crystalline PET (polyethylene terephthalate) market is projected to reach USD 713.1 million by 2021, at a CAGR of 14.6% from 2016 to 2021. The food packaging segment is the largest application segment of the GCC crystalline PET market, owing to increasing demand for packaged food. The report covers the crystalline PET market across major countries in the GCC region, including Saudi Arabia, UAE, Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, and Bahrain. It also analyzes the GCC crystalline PET market and its trends with respect to its applications.

The growth of the packaged food industry in the GCC region is expected to fuel the growth of the GCC crystalline PET market in the coming years. The physical characteristics of crystalline PET, including its exceptional hardness and abrasion resistivity, along with its high possible end-use temperature, increased rigidity, and low creep, also make crystalline PET ideal for use in various applications. These factors are expected to further drive the market.

Saudi Arabia accounted for more than half of the GCC crystalline PET market. The increased usage of crystalline PET across different industries, such as cosmetics, films & sheets, and food and beverages packaging is expected to boost its demand in the Saudi Arabian market. This has made the Saudi Arabia and other GCC countries, a global manufacturing and commercial hub for crystalline PET, where several major companies are setting up their plants to target the high-growth segments of the region. Cheap labor and easy availability of feedstock are some of the key factors that have been attracting manufacturers to establish their manufacturing facilities in this region.

The key players operating in the Gulf Cooperation Council(GCC) crystalline PET market have adopted expansions, mergers & acquisitions, supply contracts, new product developments, and innovations as their key strategies to meet the increasing demand as well as to penetrate the market. Some of the major companies operational in this market are The Dow Chemical Company (U.S.), Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (Saudi Arabia), OCTAL (Oman), JBF RAK LLC (U.A.E.), Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited (Thailand), Far Eastern New Century Corporation (Taiwan), DAK Americas LLC. (U.S.), and Invista (U.S.).

Fluctuating raw material prices is the major restraint for the crystalline PET market. Raw material prices are highly dependent on crude oil prices which results in the higher cost pressure on crystalline PET manufacturers. Indorama Ventures is the most dominating player in the GCC crystalline PET market. It is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of PET resins, and is continuously involved in research & development, new product launches, and expansions.
