Description:

The global Polyethylene market size is predicted to grow from US$ 125340 million in 2025 to US$ 146150 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 2.6% from 2025 to 2031.
Polyethylene (abbreviated PE) or polyethene (IUPAC name polyethene or poly(methylene)) is the most common plastic.
Polyethylene is derived from either modifying natural gas (a methane, ethane, propane mix) or from the catalytic cracking of crude oil into gasoline. In a highly purified form, it is piped directly from the refinery to a separate polymerisation plant. Here, under the right conditions of temperature, pressure and catalysis, the double bond of the ethylene monomer opens up and many monomers link up to form long chains.
The major players in global Polyethylene market include Turtle Wax, DowDuPont, Exxon Mobil Corporation, etc. Asia and Middle East are main markets, they occupy about 50% of the global market. HDPE is the main type, with a share about 60%. Packaging is the main application, which holds a share about 75%.
