The operating environment for the BOPET Film industry continued to improve during Q1 FY27, with the US tariff-related disruptions and import from China witnessed in FY26, largely behind us. Simultaneously, the Plastic Waste Management Rules (PWMR) and the increasing requirement for post-consumer recycled (PCR) content continue to provide structural demand opportunities for rPET and recycled-content films. Against this backdrop, Ester continues to strategically strengthen its Film portfolio by increasing the contribution of Value-Added and Specialty products. This approach is aimed at improving realizations, enhancing product mix and reducing earnings volatility arising from industry-wide cyclicitycaused byperiodicdemand-supply imbalances. Looking ahead, we remain confident about Ester’s medium to long-term growth prospects, supported by improving industry conditions, favourable regulatory tailwinds and its continued focus on premium and Value-Added products.
