폴리에틸렌 푸라노에이트(PEF) 시장 : 용도별, 최종사용자별, 지역별(2025-2033년)

The global polyethylene furanoate (PEF) market size reached USD 35.4 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 58.1 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 5.39% during 2025-2033. The growing awareness among individuals about utilizing renewable and bio-based materials, favorable government initiatives, and rising application in the packaging industry represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Polyethylene furanoate (PEF) refers to an aromatic polyester that is manufactured from furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) and polymerized with ethylene glycol. It is cost-effective, non-toxic, and recyclable and offers high tensile strength, saves energy, and can be processed at low temperatures. It has thermal properties, high glass transition temperature, lower melting point, and reduced carbon footprint. It also has a higher barrier to oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water vapor and is a real bio-based alternative to petroleum-based polyethylene terephthalate (PET). It assists in improving packaging sustainability and requires fewer additives in the manufacturing process. It also aids in extending shelf life and maintaining the flavor and appearance of food products. Besides this, it can reduce non-renewable energy use (NREU) and decrease harmful emissions during the production process. As a result, PEF is widely employed in the construction, food and beverage (F&B), packaging, and agriculture industries across the globe.

Polyethylene Furanoate (PEF) Market Trends:

At present, the rising awareness among individuals about the utilization of bio-based and renewable materials represents one of the key factors supporting the growth of the market. Besides this, the increasing utilization of PEF in the packaging industry to pack alcoholic beverages, milk, soft drinks, fruit juices, tea, and water is propelling the growth of the market. Additionally, there is a rise in the adoption of safe, sustainable, lightweight, and cost-efficient solutions among the masses across the globe. This, coupled with the increasing utilization of PEF to manufacture clothing apparel, diapers, carpets, fabrics, filters, and industrial fibers, is bolstering the growth of the market. Apart from this, governing agencies of various countries are encouraging the adoption of PEF by restricting the consumption of petroleum-based plastic and reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, which is strengthening the growth of the market. Moreover, the growing adoption of PEF in the food and beverage (F&B) industry to prevent food from oxidation and maintain the quality of a food product is offering a positive market outlook. In addition, the rising health consciousness among consumers about safe drinking water for maintaining good health is contributing to the growth of the market. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of PEF films due to the rising demand for packaged and ready-to-eat (RTE) food products among the masses around the world is strengthening the growth of the market.
