Key Insights and Trends Dominating the Global Recycled Plastic Market

Food packaging will be the fastest growing application category in terms of volume. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was found to be a leading category of recycled plastics in 2019. In terms of value, it is projected to reach US$ 14.1 Bn by 2026, growing with a CAGR of 8.7% owing to the higher demand from food as well as non-food packaging applications.

Growing demand for sustainable plastic materials from the automotive industry is likely to boost the demand for recycled plastics as well. To tap this potential, plastic recyclers have developed technologies to effectively separate and recycle plastic from end-of-life vehicles (ELV).

Recycled plastics are being increasingly uses for carpeting, flooring tiles, roofing tiles, indoor insulation, bricks, and fences. Residential as well as commercial construction sectors are benefitting owing to the durability, lighter weight, and high strength in case mix-compound recycled plastics as these materials are cost-competitive compared to virgin plastics.

Various Properties of Classified Recycled Plastics Ensue Market Growth Through Different Sectors

Lack of polypropylene and virgin polyethylene availability is projected to encourage the use of recycled polythene. As consumers become increasing sensitive to environmental concerns, they raise demand for sustainability commitments with the packaging industry. With a benefit of their own in the face of long-term cost-cutting, companies adapt to the new trends of durable packaging.

Due to this, market for recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) are forecasted to experience surging growth. Major use of recycled polypropylene for producing outdoor furniture and other construction consumer products is expected to have a share in the expansion of the global recycled plastics market.
