Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET) Price Trend for the Q1 of 2024

Asia

Despite a bullish PTA feedstock price, Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET) prices in China remained stagnant throughout the first quarter of 2024. This stability was due to the offsetting effects of higher PTA costs and only mild demand, resulting in a surge in production costs and a decline in the profits of the manufacturing communities. Additionally, sluggish export demand, typical seasonal dullness, and geopolitical tensions dampened purchasing enthusiasm.

As tensions in the Red Sea region escalated, concerns about trade disruptions and rising shipping costs loomed over the BOPET market. While stable feedstock costs and steady demand offer temporary stability, potential trade disruptions, shipping cost increases, and future PTA fluctuations pose challenges to raising BOPET prices.

Europe

The European Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET) market stabilized towards the end of the first quarter after a consequent price increase driven by limited supply and steady upstream prices. The market traders and manufacturers noticed this change in the market momentum during the last quarter of 2023 only, which further continued in the first quarter of 2024 as well.

The Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET) also remained positive due to port closures in Germany and shipping route alterations prompted by security issues in the Red Sea region. Downstream purchasing remained at an all-time high in the initial phase of the quarter but slowed a little towards the end of the quarter.

North America

In the US market, BOPET Film prices experienced a slow and steady incline during the first quarter of 2024 due to limited inventories amidst heightened demand from the packaging industry during the festive season in Asian countries. Severe weather conditions disrupted the supply chain, increasing lead times and prompting a surge in demand.

Despite inflation rates remaining stagnant, positive purchasing sentiments persisted throughout the first quarter of 2024, supported by ongoing discounts from major retail chains. Further, the rise in the cost of crude oil and an increasing number of sanctions on oil exports by Russia and Saudi Arabia raised the overall cost of production and, invariably, the quoted prices of Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET).

Analyst Insight

About

Biaxially Oriented Polyethylene Terephthalate (BOPET) is a polyester film made from polyethylene terephthalate that undergoes a biaxial orientation process. This process involves stretching the film in both the machine direction and the transverse direction, resulting in a film with enhanced mechanical properties and dimensional stability. BOPET films are known for their high tensile strength, stiffness, and excellent optical clarity.

They exhibit good barrier properties against moisture, oxygen, and chemicals, making them suitable for various packaging applications, including food packaging, labels, and industrial films. Additionally, BOPET films are heat-resistant and have excellent thermal stability, allowing them to withstand high-temperature processing methods such as heat sealing and lamination.

Production Process

The production method of BOPET films employs cutting-edge technology and premium resin. Melting the resin and extruding it through a die with a thin slit is the first step in the process. After that, the film is stretched in both transverse and machine directions to give it the correct thickness and characteristics. Heat-setting the film is the last step in improving its dimensional stability and other characteristics. BOPET films produced by this technique have outstanding mechanical and thermal stability, which makes them a popular substrate for a variety of uses.
