The recycled PET market in India has seen an upswing in recent years, attributed to increased utilization in the food and beverage packaging sector as approximately 63% of bottles are specifically allocated for packaging beverages like water, soft drinks, fruit drinks, dairy, and liquor. Notably, Hindustan Unilever and several other FMCG companies incorporated 90% recycled PET packaging for specific product segments, creating significant demand for rPET products in recent years.
According to the publisher, India Recycled PET Market size is projected to grow at a CAGR of 9.3% during 2024-2030F. The growth of the India recycled PET industry is driven by the rising use of recycled PET in FMCG and Textile industry as FMCG firms commit to sustainability, aiming for 50% recycled PET in packaging by 2030 and the growing textile industry which utilises around 50%-60% is anticipated to rise in upcoming years. Moreover, government initiatives such as phasing out of single-use plastic items and mandate extended producer responsibility to PIBO(producers, importers and brand owners) to recycle plastic content in packaging with the target to reach 50% by 2025 for Category 1 and 4 plastics and 30% for category 2 and 3 plastics is driving the market ahead. Furthermore, the upcoming investment such as Indian Oil Corporation Limited (IOCL) plans to recycle 100 million discarded mineral water, cold drinks and other PET bottles annually to make eco-friendly uniforms for its staff is expected to propel future demand for the recycled PET market.
