MOSCOW – Indorama Ventures (IVL) will increase its capacity for processing polyethylene terephthalate (R-PET) to 750 thousand tons per year by 2025, the Thai company said in its annual report.

In his introduction to the report, Dilip Kumar Agarwal, Chief Executive Officer of Feedstock and PET Business, said: “We have committed to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation that we will increase our PET processing capacity to 750 thousand tons by 2025 ”

Along with expanding PET processing capacities, the company expects that by 2025, return on invested capital (ROCE) will be about 12-14%.

The company has already expanded its processing facilities, which began with the acquisition of Wellman International in Europe in 2011, with its PET granulate processing plants in Spijke (Netherlands) and Verdun (France). Indorama Ventures PET processing

Companies like Procter and Gamble have signed an IVL deal with R-PET, and P&G announced earlier this year that it will be the first company in Europe to manufacture Indorama Circular Plastics PET made by chemical processing.

According to ScanPlast of Market Report, in March the total estimated PET consumption in Russia amounted to 65.37 thousand tons, which is 1% higher than the previous year.
