Teijin is promoting polyester polymer "Purity" that is completely free from heavy metals like antimony.

Teijin Fibers has signed a technology license contract for PET bottle resin with the biggest polyester maker in Asia. Teijin Fibers has already reached a basic agreement on providing the technology license for textile polymer to this company. Teijin Group has also brought OEM production in PET bottle resin and polyester fiber with this company into its field of view..

This contract has triggered Teijin Group into expanding the licensing of technology for "Purity" to Asia and Europe, as well as to aim at shifting 10% of the world consumption of polyester (68,000,000 tons per year) to its "Purity" by 2015.
