Ethylene polyester

Ethylene polyester (PET) is the most commonly-produced form of polyester fiber. The primary component of PET is petroleum-derived ethylene, and in the process of creating polyester fiber, ethylene serves as the polymer that interacts with other chemicals to create a stable fibrous compound.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET)

PET is the most common polyester type, as it’s the strongest and most cost-effective to manufacture. Petroleum-derived ethylene is its main component. The polymer reacts with other chemicals, forming a durable, fibrous compound.

Plant-Based polyester

Manufacturers often blend ethylene glycol with dimethyl terephthalate (DMT) to produce plant-based polyesters. Petroleum is the standard source of ethylene in other polyesters.

PCDT polyester

PCDT stands for poly-1, 4-cyclohexylene-dimethylene terephthalate, the primary component of this polyester. Like PET, PCDT contains ethylene glycol mixed with DMT. However, the two types differ in their production processes, giving them slightly different consistencies. PCDT tends to be more durable and elastic, making it suitable for upholstery and curtains.
