Research Methodology on Bio-based PET Market
Introduction
Bio-based PET (polyethylene terephthalate) is a type of material derived from renewable waste sources such as paper sludge, wood pulp, sugarcane, and vegetable oils. It is used for various applications such as packaging, containers, and more. It is an eco-friendly alternative to PET and is a recipient of multiple government incentives. Its upsurge in usage is driven by high consumer awareness concerning environmental hazards and the rising inclination towards biodegradable packaging in the food & beverage industry.
