The demand for recycled plastics from the automotive sector is boosting the growth of the recycled plastics market. Increasing plastic waste in the environment developed the focus of manufacturers to shift in the production of recycled plastics, which are highly used in various industries.

All these factors support the demand for recycled plastics in the automotive industry.

The facility is expected to manufacture ~1 million units annually. The surge in automobile manufacturing is boosting the demand for recycled plastics, thereby driving the recycled plastics market.

In 2020, Asia Pacific held the largest revenue share of the recycled plastics market. The major factor driving the recycled plastics market growth in this region is the high demand for recycled plastics from manufacturing, automotive, packaging, textile, building and construction, and consumer goods.
