Petrochemicals

Polyester Raw Materials

We operate across the polyester value chain with a core focus on supplying high‑quality raw materials essential to the global polyester and plastics industries. Our product portfolio now includes Purified Terephthalic Acid (PTA), Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG), and Purified Isophthalic Acid (PIA). These materials serve as critical feedstocks for producing a wide range of downstream polyester products used worldwide.

PTA and MEG are the two primary building blocks of polyester production and play a vital role in manufacturing polyester fibers, films, and various packaging materials. These components enable the creation of products found in daily life, including apparel, home textiles, food and beverage packaging, automotive components, and construction materials.

PIA, a premium specialty chemical, enhances product performance by improving heat resistance, durability, and clarity. It is widely used in high‑grade PET resins, specialty coatings, and engineering plastics. By adding PIA to our product portfolio, we expand our capability to support customers requiring advanced material solutions for more demanding applications.

As part of the Mitsubishi Group’s global network, we benefit from decades of experience in the chemical and polyester sectors. Our group’s strong trading capabilities, coupled with long‑term partnerships with producers and customers, enable us to deliver reliable supply, stable logistics, and consistent product quality. Through close collaboration with Mitsubishi Corporation and our affiliated companies around the world, we strengthen the entire polyester value chain from raw materials procurement to finished-product distribution.

Our mission is to support customers both domestically and internationally with dependable materials and integrated value‑chain solutions. By leveraging global market insights, supply-chain expertise, and our commitment to responsible business practices, we aim to contribute to the sustainable growth of the polyester industry and help our partners succeed in a rapidly evolving marketplace.

Methyl Methacrylate Monomer (MMA)

MMA has a variety of usages in many applications. The main application is polymethylmethacrylate acrylic plastic (PMMA), which is used in acrylic sheets for the application of advertisement/sign board, decorative items, sanitaryware, and molding of car rear lights, electric appliances, etc.

MMA is also used to manufacture surface coatings (paints) used in the automotive and architectural markets.

MMA is a raw material for the manufacture of Methacrylate. These derivatives include Ethyl Methacrylate (EMA), Butyl Methacrylate (BMA) and 2-ethyl Hexyl Methacrylate (2-EHMA). Methacrylic acid (MAA) is used as a chemical intermediate as well as in the manufacture of coating polymers, construction chemicals and textile applications.
