Global Polystyrene Resin Recycling Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Polystyrene Resin Recycling market size is expected to reach $ 719 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of 5.0% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
Polystyrene, commonly known as Styrofoam, is a type of plastic that is widely used in packaging materials, disposable products, and insulation. Unfortunately, polystyrene is not easily biodegradable and takes hundreds of years to decompose naturally in the environment. However, there are recycling methods available for polystyrene to minimize its impact on the environment. Here are some options for polystyrene recycling:
Mechanical recycling: This is the most common method of recycling polystyrene. It involves collecting used polystyrene products, cleaning and shredding them into small pieces, and then melting and reforming them into new plastic products like picture frames, crown molding, and office supplies.
Expanded polystyrene (EPS) recycling: EPS, often used in packaging materials, can be recycled using specialized machines. These machines compress and melt the EPS, reducing its volume and converting it into dense ingots or blocks for further use in manufacturing new products.
Chemical recycling: This is a more advanced method that involves breaking down polystyrene into its chemical components through processes such as depolymerization or pyrolysis. The resulting components can be used as feedstock for the production of new plastics or other materials.
Collection programs: Many local governments and recycling organizations have established programs to collect polystyrene for recycling. Look for drop-off locations or recycling centers in your area that accept polystyrene. Some recycling companies also offer mail-back programs for polystyrene products.
Expanded polystyrene compactors: These machines are used to compress and condense EPS packaging waste on-site, minimizing storage and transportation costs for businesses. The compacted EPS blocks can then be picked up by recycling companies.
Global 5 largest companies of Polystyrene Resin Recycling are INTCO Recycling, Pana-Chemical, Dart Container Corporation, Interzero and PreZero International, which make up over 38%. Among them, INTCO Recycling is the leader with about 16% market share. Asia-Pacific is the largest market, with a share about 51%, followed by Europe and North America , with the share about 27% and 14%. In terms of product type, Post-consumer Recycling occupy the largest share of the total market, about 65%. And in terms of product Application, the largest application is Building and Construction, followed by Packaging.
