Recycled Plastics Market by Product (Polyethylene, Polyethylene Terephthalate, Polypropylene), Method (Distributed Recycling, Heat Compression, Pyrolysis), Source, Application - Global Forecast 2024-2030
Description
Recycled Plastics Market by Product (Polyethylene, Polyethylene Terephthalate, Polypropylene), Method (Distributed Recycling, Heat Compression, Pyrolysis), Source, Application - Global Forecast 2024-2030
The Recycled Plastics Market size was estimated at USD 47.07 billion in 2023 and expected to reach USD 49.00 billion in 2024, at a CAGR 4.41% to reach USD 63.69 billion by 2030.
Recycled plastics are materials reprocessed from plastic waste, transforming them into usable plastic products or materials. The recycled plastics process involves collecting plastic waste, cleaning and sorting it, breaking it down into plastic flakes or pellets, and then remolding it into new products. The necessity for recycled plastics stems from the urgency to address the environmental issues caused by the overproduction and disposal of virgin plastics. Increasing public consciousness regarding environmental sustainability and reducing plastic pollution drives the recycled plastics market. In addition, initiatives and stringent regulations by governments worldwide mandating the use of recycled materials propel the adoption of recycled plastics. However, contamination levels in plastics and variability in the quantity and quality of recyclable plastic waste present a challenge for the stable production of recycled plastics. Nevertheless, developing sorting techniques that can efficiently differentiate and process various plastics and ongoing investments in new recycled plastic facilities are expected to drive the recycled plastics market in the coming years.
Regional Insights
A growing consumer awareness of the environmental impact of plastic waste characterizes the recycled plastics market in the Americas. The countries in the Americas show commitment to reducing plastic waste through government initiatives and private investments in recycling infrastructure. The European Union (EU) countries promote using recycled plastics due to stringent regulations and policies, such as the EU Plastics Strategy and the Circular Economy Action Plan. These policies have encouraged investments in advanced recycling technologies and created a robust market for recycled plastics. Consumer purchasing behavior in the EU is greatly influenced by sustainability credentials, driving companies to incorporate recycled content into their products. While the Middle East is witnessing increased investments to develop recycling facilities, Africa’s market is still emerging with substantial opportunities, including efforts to formalize waste collection and recycling sectors. The recycled plastics in the Asia-Pacific is growing, with a focus on improving the quality and capacity of domestic recycling facilities. The government push for increased recycling rates and support for the informal recycling sector in emerging economies has promoted the demand for recycled plastic in the Asia-Pacific.
