The Southeast Asia Bio Poly(Tetramethylene Ether) Glycol (Bio PTMEG) market continues to demonstrate robust growth, with its valuation reaching USD 42.5 million in 2024. According to industry analysis, the market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.3%, reaching approximately USD 68.9 million by 2032. This growth is fueled by increasing adoption of sustainable materials across textile, automotive, and medical industries in the region.
Bio PTMEG serves as a bio-based alternative to conventional PTMEG, derived from renewable feedstocks like sugarcane. Its primary application lies in manufacturing high-performance polyurethanes used in spandex fibers and specialty elastomers. The material’s biodegradability and lower carbon footprint make it increasingly attractive as industries transition toward eco-friendly solutions.
