Indorama Ventures Public Company Limited has recycled more than 150 billion post-consumer PET bottles since 2011.

According to the chemical company, with more than 20 recycling facilities across 11 countries, it collectively recycles 789 bottles every second, transforming used PET into high-quality recycled PET (rPET) resins and other circular materials.

Indorama Ventures reached its first major milestone of 50 billion bottles recycled in March 2020 and doubled that figure to 100 billion bottles in 2023. The milestone of 150 billion mark reflects both growing global demand for recycled content and its increasing speed in scaling up recycling, remarked the company.

Indorama Ventures collectively recycles 789 bottles every second.

Yash Lohia, Executive President of Petchem and Chairman of the ESG Council, said, “Recycling 150 billion PET bottles is more than a milestone — it reflects the power of people, purpose, and technology driving scalable, sustainable impact.”

Beyond the positive benefits of recycling and reusing PET, this milestone also delivers measurable environmental and social impact. By recycling 150 billion PET bottles, Indorama Ventures has helped avoid an estimated 3.8 million tons of CO₂ emissions over the product lifecycle and diverted 2.8 million tons of plastic waste from landfills and the environment.

As global demand for recycled materials grows, Indorama Ventures reaffirms its commitment to expanding recycling capacity, investing in innovation, and working with stakeholders across the value chain to accelerate the shift toward a circular economy.
