Indorama Ventures<\/a>, a global sustainable chemical producer, has created a joint venture (JV) with PepsiCo\u2019s bottling company Varun Beverages to build polyethylene terephthalate (PET) recycling facilities in India.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The JV has been formed by Indorama through its subsidiary IVL Dhunseri Petrochem Industries and Dhunseri Ventures.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This collaboration is a significant step towards addressing the growing demand for recycled PET (rPET) content across India.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Construction has commenced for two PET recycling facilities, with completion expected by 2025.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The two facilities are located in Kathua in the Indian Union territory Jammu and Kashmir, and Khurdha in the state of Odisha.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The goal is to achieve a combined annual capacity of 100 kilotonnes (kt) of rPET.\u00a0<\/p>\n
