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. We’re grateful to our consumers, customers, and partners who make this progress possible. This achievement reinforces the value of long-term thinking, strategic investment, and collaboration as we lead the shift toward a circular economy. We’re proud of how far we’ve come—and are committed to going further.”

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.
