"Indonesia's Accelerating PET Conversion as the Preferred Packaging"

"Asia: Looking Inwards for Opportunities Amid Global Volatility"

As PET capacities increases worldwide from the Middle East to the Americas, Asia is seeing a challenging time with greater margin squeeze and changing dynamics of PET trade. In spite of the situation; China and the South East Asia are still the cardinal lifeline of the industry as Asian PET and feedstock prices are major drivers of the global PET markets.

 

Within Asia, major markets are unfolding with huge opportunities for the food and beverage packaging sectors. Indonesia, with a dense population of over 200 million is shifting to PET and seeing an increased growth in new market segments such as ready-to-drink tea and functional drinks in PET bottles. Meanwhile, Myanmar is the golden investment ground for PET converters and packaging companies as the country offers great potential for beverage manufacturing and retail. Whereas China has always been the largest and most important global PET market.

 

On par with market requirements and consumers' behavior, the PET industry is driven by continuous improvement in packaging technologies to meet greater sustainability and flexibility. From recycling to light-weighting to aseptic filling, the PET supply-chain has a pressing need to be abreast with the new trends in order to meet customer requirements.

 

PET Outlook Asia will unveil key issues facing the PET industry, from markets to technologies and give your company the arsenal to strive in a competitive business environment.

Coca-Cola Amatil (CCA) has announced its move in acquiring the PT San Miguel’s non-alcoholic beverage bottling assets that will boost their capacity by 35-40% in Indonesia, where consumer market is continuously growing.

 

Group Managing Director, Terry Davis said,

 

“The acquisition of this large and modern facility is a very important acquisition for CCA as it fast tracks our expansion plans for the Jakarta region, providing a well located complement to our Cibitung manufacturing operations.”

 

Adding to its portfolio, CCA’s acquisition includes a 20,000 square meters purpose-built beverage production facility  with a high-speed PET bottling line, a 5,000 square meters warehouse, as well as a 100,000 square meters land which can be used for expansion in time to come.

 

According to reports, CCA is prepared to spend an estimated USD 46.7 million on the San Miguel facilities. This cost includes the acquisition of facilities as well as expenses that will go into developing the site and capacity this year.

 

CCA’s acquisition comes at a time when optimistic growth is forecasted in the densely populated Indonesian market of over 200 million, with new market segments such as ready-to-drink tea and functional drinks in convenient PET bottles gaining favor from consumers.

 

Businesses from the PET packaging market, including converters and brand owners such as PT Indo, Suntory and Danone Aqua Group will convene in Jakarta on 24-25 April 2013 to share insights of Asia’s PET development at the PET Outlook Asia

Brand owners and PET bottlers are riding on lower price points and consumers’ favor in affordability and convenient packaging to boost the market. This has prompted strategies that leverage on the two factors, leading to a phenomenon of downsized beverage bottles that come in 300ml bottles and at a lower unit price.

 

These products are much more convenient for today’s end consumers, who are often on-the-go. By the looks of the trends and consumer behavior, the PET market has much to thrive on in the coming years. 

 

Growth in the PET industry is not just limited to affordability and convenience. The widening of PET applications is increasing the stakes in the industry, with the entrance of functional beverages giving the PET market a boost. Milk and alcoholic beverages such as wines are forecasted to join the force in giving the market a bump, upping the market’s potential by 2016.

 

In response to the evolving PET industry, CMT is putting together  PET Outlook Asia summit this April to provide latest updates on market trends and growth .
