ITP Now Follows Global Trade in Two New World Trade Reports on: PET Bottle Grade, and, PET Film and Fiber Grade.
ITP’s current PET World Trade Report combines these products for historic continuity. In 2017, the World Customs Organization created new Harmonized System codes that separately identified bottle grade polyethylene terephthalate with a viscosity equal to or greater than 78 ml/g and PET with a viscosity less than 78 ml/g, generally used in film and fiber.
