Who this opportunity suits
A unique opportunity to acquire high-value Virgin, specialty PET and rPET polyester staple fibre manufacturing assets and utility infrastructure from an established facility. The assets are available either as a complete package or as individual standalone equipment, so buyers can debottleneck existing lines, expand current operations, establish new capacity, or source critical equipment at competitive investment levels.
- Expand rPET production capacity and enhance product value addition
- Debottleneck current operations
- Establish greenfield or brownfield manufacturing projects
- Acquire critical process equipment at attractive investment levels
- Enter the polyester value chain with reduced capital expenditure
