Recycled Plastics Market

Global Recycled Plastics Market Size, Share & Trends Analysis Report, By Source (Bottles, Films, Fibers, Foams and Others), By Type (Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), Polyethylene (PE), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Polypropylene (PP), Polystyrene (PS) and Others), By End-Users (Packaging, Building & Construction, Textile, Automotive, Electrical & Electronics and Others), Forecast (2022-2028).

Published: Apr 2022 | Report Code: OMR2026352 | Category : Chemical and Material | Delivery Format: /

The global recycled plastics market is anticipated to grow at a significant CAGR during the forecast period. Plastic recycling means to reprocess plastic waste into new and useful products while reducing dependence on landfills, conserving resources and protecting the environment from plastic pollution and greenhouse gas emissions. The major factor driving the growth of the global recycled plastics market during the forecast is increasing plastic consumption for the production of lightweight components for several industries such as building & construction, automotive, electrical & electronics, among others. Additionally, the market is also growing owing to their negative impact on the environment due to plastic disposal. The growing use of plastic has led to a huge amount of plastic waste which poses risk to the environment. Hence, the process of recycling plastic waste can curb this risk which in turn is driving the growth of the global recycled plastics market during the forecast period. Furthermore, emerging recycling technologies may also boost the growth of the market in the coming years. 

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on Global Recycled Plastics Market

The COVID-19 pandemic had a negative impact on the global recycled plastics market. During COVID-19, as of May 2020, 212 countries had been impacted by the pandemic, and the governments of these countries had ordered nationwide lockdowns which resulted in a substantial decline weakening of the operations of several organizations which has a negative result on the recycling operations. However, due to the social distancing norms by government and work-from-home policies, there was substantial growth in at-home deliveries that increased the packaging rate. Additionally, due to the rise in online shopping of electrical & electronics, personal care products, and personal protective equipment, such as gloves and face masks which in turn boosted the growth of the recycled plastic in these applications.
