Consumer awareness of the need to avoid toxic compounds in textiles and packaging materials has led to a growing demand for antimony-free polyesters. Antimony poses potential health, safety, and environmental risks due to its use in antimony-based catalysts. Regulatory pressures in regions such as the EU and North America are pushing industries to adopt safer alternatives. Additionally, the food and beverage sectors are seeking antimony-free PET (polyethylene terephthalate) to ensure safer packaging solutions. Technological advancements have made the use of alternative catalysts, such as titanium and aluminum, more practical. Moreover, brands that promote sustainable materials are increasingly committed to using antimony-free polyester for compliance and eco-labeling purposes.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is anticipated to be the largest segment in the antimony-free polyesters market, in terms of value, during the forecast period.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) holds the largest share in the antimony-free polyesters market due to its wide range of applications and compatibility with alternative catalyst systems. It is predominantly used in packaging, especially for food and beverage products, where rising health and safety concerns have led to the transition to non-antimony versions. The increasing demand for non-toxic and sustainable packaging materials has encouraged many manufacturers and brand owners to adopt antimony-free PET. Additionally, the well-established supply chain for PET, along with its recyclability and low cost, enhances its appeal. Recent advancements in catalyst technology have enabled the production of high-quality antimony-free PET that matches or exceeds the performance of conventional PET. This makes it suitable for a variety of uses, including textiles, bottles, and industrial applications, all of which have more demanding requirements. Furthermore, regulatory pressures in many regions to eliminate toxic heavy metals from consumer products further support the shift from conventional PET to antimony-free PET.

The titanium-based catalysts segment will account for the largest share in the antimony-free polyesters market during the forecast period.

Titanium-based catalysts hold the largest share in the antimony-free polyester market due to their efficiency, low cost, and compatibility with large-scale polyester production systems. These catalysts produce high-quality polyesters that exhibit excellent thermal stability, clarity, and mechanical strength, making them suitable for various applications, including packaging, textiles, and industrial fibers. Unlike antimony-based catalysts, titanium-based catalysts pose no health or environmental risks, aligning with global regulatory trends and consumer preferences for safer alternatives. They can be seamlessly integrated into existing PET production lines without requiring major adjustments, making them easy to adopt. Additionally, these processes provide a relatively simple transition to current PET manufacturing methods with minimal alterations, facilitating easier integration into manufacturing plants for scalability. Furthermore, titanium-based catalysts have undergone extensive research and development, allowing them to consistently perform well and produce PET with similar properties over prolonged periods.

Textile is anticipated to be the largest segment in the antimony-free polyesters market, by end-use industry, during the forecast period.

The textile sector accounts for the largest share of the antimony-free polyesters market due to the widespread use of polyester fibers in clothing, home textiles, industrial textiles, and non-woven products. Polyester is a preferred fabric in the textile industry because of its durability, resistance to wrinkles, and low cost. However, there are growing concerns about the persistence of chemical residues such as antimony in traditional polyester. As a result, there is an increasing demand for safer alternatives to conventional polyester, particularly in clothing and bedding, which involve long-term skin contact. Regulatory authorities and environmentally conscious consumers are driving the adoption of antimony-free polyester fabrics to reduce exposure to harmful heavy metals and improve product sustainability. Additionally, the high scalability of titanium and aluminum-based catalysts enables the production of large volumes of antimony-free fibers without compromising quality. Together, these factors make the textile industry the largest consumer of antimony-free polyesters.

Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest region in the antimony-free polyesters market during the forecast period.

The Asia Pacific region holds the largest share of the antimony-free polyester market, driven by its well-established manufacturing base, increasing environmental regulations, and high demand from several key end-use industries. Major producers and consumers of polyester in textiles, packaging, and automotive applications include countries like China, India, Japan, and South Korea. As awareness of the health and environmental risks associated with antimony-based catalysts has grown, regional manufacturers have rapidly adopted antimony-free polyester alternatives to comply with domestic and export standards. Additionally, government policies promoting green chemistry and the use of sustainable materials have led to a swift transition toward various types of antimony-free polyesters. The region benefits from a well-established polyester supply chain and cost-effective production capabilities due to rising investments in cleaner technologies. Rapid urbanization, growing demand for safe and sustainable materials, and key polyester producers have further fueled the demand for packaging, textiles, and consumer goods. All these factors contribute to making Asia Pacific the leader in the global antimony-free polyester market.
