The global recycled thermoplastic market in 2018 was above US$ 50 Bn and is expected to grow more than US$ 103 Bn by 2026. The market is expected to register a CAGR of above 9% from 2019-2026.

Thermoplastic polymer has properties such as high-impact strength and heat-resistance and when mixed with the compounded thermoplastic polymer matrix it gives more high performance such as improved flow-ability and processing performance. Thermoplastic polymers include polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA), polyester, starch, and protein. Plastic recycling is a process in which useful products are produced through reprocessing and re-melting.

Market Dynamics

Major factors expected to drive the growth of the global recycled thermoplastic market are rapid industrializations in developed and developing countries, increasing plastic waste, coupled with rising R&D activities for development of eco-friendly plastic products. In addition, increasing use of plastic in day-to-day life, rising environmental concern, along with recycling plastic provides a better solution on environmental and ecological threats thus in turn supporting the growth of the target market.

Moreover, rising plastic waste generation in developing countries, along with unavailability of proper disposable facility especially in urban areas is resulting in growing need for development of recyclable thermoplastic products this is among other factors expected to support the growth of the global market.

However, availability of various alternatives is a major factor expected to hamper the growth of the global recycled thermoplastic market. In addition, lack of regulatory standards related to use of plastic in developing countries is expected to challenge the growth of the target market.

Developing government regulations and innovative product offerings by major players are factors expected to create new opportunities in terms of revenue for players operating in the target market over the forecast period. In addition, increasing investment for technological advancements and R&D activities by public and private players is expected to further support the market growth.

Global Recycled Thermoplastic Market Analysis, by Type (2018)
