China's polyester feedstock supply in 2025

In the China polyester feedstock market, supply of high-purity terephthalic acid (PTA) is expected to grow in 2025. On the other hand, not much ethylene glycol (EG) is forecast to be supplied on a spot basis. This is because although new EG facilities are scheduled to start up, these facilities would have derivative facilities.

Market sources predict that domestic polyester production capacity would increase by about 4.90mil mt/year in 2025. Meanwhile, production capacity of PTA and EG would rise by about 8.60mil mt/year and about 2.60mil mt/year respectively.

Startup schedules of new polyester and feedstock facilities are as follows.
