The equipment's efficiency, reliability, and ability to produce recyclable PET sheets align with the industry's growing demand for sustainable and eco-friendly materials. These factors have helped in the rapid development of PET sheet extrusion equipment market share.  

COVID-19 IMPACT

Reduction in Demand for Non-essential Goods During Pandemic Decreased Market Share

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with the PET sheet extrusion equipment market experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The sudden spike in CAGR is attributable to the market's growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The outbreak of pandemic of COVID-19 changed the dimensions of many industries. The implementation of lockdowns and restrictions has disrupted global supply chains, leading to delays in the delivery of equipment components and raw materials. Manufacturing facilities faced temporary closures or reduced capacities, resulting in production slowdowns.

Additionally, the decrease in demand for non-essential goods during the pandemic has affected the overall demand for PET sheets and subsequently impacted the purchase of extrusion equipment. However, the increased emphasis on hygiene and the demand for packaging materials for essential goods have partially offset the negative effects, driving a gradual recovery in the PET sheet extrusion equipment market.
