The Global Plastic Recycling Market is Set to Exhibit a 5.82% CAGR by 2028
The Plastic recycling market was valued at USD 38.51 billion in 2021. The plastic recycling market industry is projected to grow from USD 41.24 Billion in 2022 to USD 66.66 billion by 2030, exhibiting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.10% during the forecast period (2022–2030). Increasing the use of plastic in the manufacturing of lightweight components utilized in many different industries, including electrical and electronic, building, and construction are the key market drivers enhancing the market growth.
Plastic recycling is a process of recovering various classes of plastic material to be reused in other items, such as their original form. Items made from recycled plastic will typically not be recycled again. Before recycling, plastics undergo four separate phases — sorting, washing, shredding, and extruding. It is passed through these stages to ensure that it can be used for the production of different types of products. Plastic recycling is primarily carried out by two processes — heat compression and monomerization.
Plastic recycling helps save non-renewable fossil fuels, decreases the energy use used in the manufacture of new plastics, minimizes solid waste to landfill sites, and reduces emissions of gases such as carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. This exercise is primarily performed in the packaging, construction, textile, automotive, and other industries.
