The Global Polymer Surge: From Banknotes to Bottles—Tracking the Polymer Money Rate and Market Trends in 2025
/the-global-polymer-surge-from-banknotes-to-bottlesThe Rise of "Polymer Money" and its Industrial Ripple Effect : The world of currency is changing, with over 70 countries now issuing polymer banknotes. What started in Australia in 1988 has become a global standard for durability, security, and cleanliness. But this financial trend is just one part of a much larger, dynamic polymer market that influences nearly every industry, from currency printing to product packaging.The "polymer money rate" isn't a traditional financial exchange rate, but a key indicator of polymer's increasing importance and cost-effectiveness.
