PET Resin

PET resin is a polymer produced from the raw materials Purified
Terephthalic Acid (PTA), Isophthalic Acid (IPA) and Ethylene Glycol
(EG) using a melt polycondensation process.

SASA produces PET resin product group in its new MTR (Melt to
Resin) plant which was commissioned in 2020 and has a
capacity of 350 kt/year. With the help of MTR technology,
desired high viscosity of bottle-grade chips can be achieved
through one-step process unlike the conventional two-step
method.

PET Resin is mainly used in PET sheet production and PET Preform
which is used for bottle and jar end products in different sectors
such as food, cosmetics. PET sheet is used within various
industries, such as food and packaging industries.
