Introduction

Ethylene glycols are among the most widely used chemical intermediates worldwide. They play a vital role in industries such as polyester production, PET bottles, textile fibers, resins, detergents, lubricants, and even the oil & gas sector.
In 2024, demand for these raw materials significantly increased in the Eurasian and CIS markets. At BAYRAMOĞLU-GROUP, one of our top supplied products in 2024 was MEG, DEG, and TEG, where we successfully supported many manufacturers with consistent and high-quality deliveries from both Iran and Turkey.

What is Monoethylene Glycol (MEG)?

MEG is a clear, odorless liquid and the most commercially important member of the glycol family.

• Key Applications:

  • A primary raw material in polyester fibers and PET bottle production.
  • Widely used in antifreeze formulations for automotive and industrial purposes.
  • Applied in the manufacturing of resins, adhesives, and solvents.

• Importance for CIS Markets:
  With the growing demand in packaging (PET bottles) and the textile industry in Russia and Central Asia, MEG is considered a strategic raw material.

What is Diethylene Glycol (DEG)?

DEG is a colorless, hygroscopic liquid with a slightly sweet taste.

• Key Applications:

  • Used in the production of resins, plasticizers, and polyurethanes.
  • Common in unsaturated polyester resins, lubricants, and cosmetics.
  • Plays a role in solvents, paints, and coatings.

• Importance for CIS Markets:
  Industrial growth in construction materials, plastics, and coatings has increased demand for DEG across the region.

What is Triethylene Glycol (TEG)?

TEG is less volatile than MEG and DEG, with unique hygroscopic properties.

• Key Applications:

  • Extensively used in natural gas dehydration, making it vital for the oil & gas industry.
  • Applied as a humectant in textiles, paper, and tobacco.
  • Used in solvents, plasticizers, and disinfectants.

• Importance for CIS Markets:
  Since the CIS region is a hub for oil & gas production, TEG plays an irreplaceable role in gas treatment processes.

Why Source from Iran & Turkey?

• Regional Petrochemical Hubs: Both Iran and Turkey host well-established petrochemical complexes producing high-quality MEG, DEG, and TEG.
• Competitive Pricing: Lower production costs and geographical advantages allow CIS customers to benefit from cost-effective sourcing.
• Geographical Proximity: Export routes via the Caspian Sea, railway corridors, and Black Sea ports ensure fast and efficient deliveries to Russia, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan.
