About Polyester & Intermediates
Polyester resins are used primarily for textile and packaging related products, and use the same raw materials or intermediates for their production.
Textile Polyester is the most commonly used synthetic fibre. The fibre can be manufactured in different shapes and sizes for specific purposes. It is durable and resistant to many chemicals, as well as strong, easy to dye and lightweight. It is resistant to shrinking, stretching, wrinkling and abrasions. Polyester is often blended with other fibres, and it is used in thousands of consumer and industrial applications such as fashion dresses, coats and anoraks, sheets, duvet and filling covers, sleeping bags, soft furnishings, sewing threads and many others.
Packaging Polyester is firmly established as the consumers’ container of choice. Soft drinks were the key driver in this acceptance, followed by mineral water, together with a growing number of other beverages (isotonic, beer, milk), food-packaging (from trays for fresh fruit to containers with heat resistance, long-shelf-life or other specific properties), non-food packaging (household and personal product applications) and many others.
