Massive expansion of PET production / Imports around 90% / Overcapacity in 2008?
The lively growth of the local beverages industry is boosting the Russian market for PET granules and PET preforms. Between 2002 and 2005, consumption of PET increased by nearly 60% to an estimated 432,000 t/y, according to a report
from the German Office for Foreign Trade (bfai, Cologne; www.bfai.de). Some 93% of the polymer produced in the country goes into bottle preforms.
