Description

The global Recovered Black Masterbatch for Automotive market size is predicted to grow from US$ 8804 million in 2025 to US$ 10983 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2026 to 2032.

In 2025, global sales of recycled black masterbatch for automobiles reached 5 million tons, with an average selling price of approximately US$1,800 per ton. The industry's gross profit margin is approximately 15%-25%. Recycled black masterbatch for automobiles is an environmentally friendly plastic colorant made from waste plastics such as pyrolytic carbon black from end-of-life tires and mechanically recycled polyethylene (PE) through physical or chemical modification techniques. Its core components include recycled carbon black (60%-100%), recycled resin carriers (such as PE and PP), and dispersing agents, which are produced into cylindrical granules (2.2×2.8mm) through melt extrusion. The product has obtained International Sustainable Development and Carbon Certification (ISCC Plus) and features high blackness and low VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions. It can replace traditional petroleum-based black masterbatch for coloring automotive interior and exterior parts (such as bumpers and dashboards), engine compartment components, and wiring harnesses. Upstream: End-of-life tire and waste plastic recycling companies provide raw materials, while carbon black and resin suppliers ensure the supply of basic materials; Midstream: Black masterbatch manufacturers improve the performance of recycled materials through modification technologies and obtain certifications such as ISCC Plus; Downstream: Automotive parts manufacturers (such as Yanfeng and Faurecia) use it in injection molding and extrusion processes to produce environmentally friendly interior and exterior parts.

Market drivers mainly include the following:

Environmental policies and carbon reduction targets drive demand upgrades. Under the global "dual carbon" target, policies such as the EU's New Battery Law and China's 14th Five-Year Plan for Circular Economy Development clearly require the proportion of recycled materials used in plastic products. The automotive industry, as a major consumer of plastics, needs to reduce carbon emissions by recycling black masterbatch. For example, Cabot products can reduce GHG emissions by more than 60%, helping automakers meet carbon footprint certification requirements.

The demand for lightweighting and cost optimization in the automotive industry is accelerating replacement. The range anxiety of new energy vehicles is prompting automakers to adopt lightweight materials. Recycled black masterbatch has a density 5%-10% lower than traditional products, and its cost is reduced by 20%-30%. At the same time, its high blackness reduces the amount of pigment used, further compressing costs. For example, one automaker saved over ten million yuan annually per model by replacing its black masterbatch with recycled materials.

Rising consumer environmental awareness and supply chain compliance pressures are also driving this trend. Generation Z consumers prefer sustainable products, and automakers need to enhance brand premium by using recycled materials. Furthermore, increasingly stringent global supply chain compliance requirements have made ISCC Plus certification a "passport" to the European and American markets. The environmental attributes and certification advantages of recycled black masterbatch make it a key material for automakers to overcome trade barriers.
