2022年全球再生塑膠市場規模達486億美元,預計2030年將達到955億美元,2023-2030年預測期間CAGR為8.9%。
在環境問題、監管限制以及對環保和永續產品不斷成長的需求的推動下,全球再生塑膠市場是一個充滿活力、快速發展的行業。
由於塑膠回收技術的最新進展,提高了用於食品包裝應用的消費後回收塑膠的品質和安全性,這為包裝行業創造了成長前景,在預測期內佔有率將成長一倍。此外,近年來,用於製造塑膠的石化產品的原料原油的高價格鼓勵了再生塑膠在食品包裝中的使用,並且在未來幾年可能會增加。
2022年,聚乙烯產品領域佔據市場主導地位,佔全球營收的30.4%以上。消費品、食品和飲料、工業和許多其他行業對包裝材料的需求不斷增加是造成這一高佔有率的原因。它也經常用於牛奶盒、切菜板、垃圾箱和洗衣粉包裝等。
全球政府制定了法規和政策,透過為永續實踐創造積極的環境來促進再生塑膠市場的發展,從而提高再生塑膠的採用率。多個國家和地區已實施對塑膠袋、吸管和餐具等一次性塑膠的禁令或限制,這是採用再生塑膠做法的重要一步。這些限制促進了更環保的替代材料的使用,例如再生塑膠。
2023 年 7 月推出的「最大限度地利用資源,最大限度地減少浪費」運動是歐洲政府為改善回收並鼓勵修復和再利用現有材料而製定的策略之一。該計劃結合了公共資金支持的多項政策,以協助在可行的情況下維持商品和資源的使用並保持其最佳價值,從而擴大經濟並增加就業。
2022 年 4 月,政府還對英國製造或進口的不含至少 30% 再生塑膠的塑膠包裝徵收每噸 200 英鎊以上的稅。然而,仍有工作要做,為什麼政府正在實施飲料容器押金返還計劃,以鼓勵再循環利用數十億個塑膠瓶,並防止將其丟棄在垃圾掩埋場、焚化爐或作為垃圾,此外還計劃簡化英格蘭每個家庭和企業的回收收集流程。
再生塑膠產業主要是由主要競爭對手的投資和產品推出所推動的。透過提高再生塑膠材料的可用性、擴大其應用範圍並促進永續性,這些活動有助於該行業的蓬勃發展。
大公司不斷推出新的再生塑膠製品和材料。其中包括消費品、紡織品、建築用品和包裝材料。產品多樣化刺激了各行業對再生塑膠的需求。
例如,2020年1月16日,雀巢表示將投資高達20億瑞士法郎,協助率先從原生塑膠向食品級再生塑膠渡渡,並加速創建新型永續包裝解決方案。雀巢將在 2018 年承諾 100% 包裝可回收或可重複使用的基礎上,到 2025 年將原生塑膠的使用量減少三分之一,同時與其他機構合作促進循環經濟,努力清理海洋中的塑膠垃圾、湖泊和河流。
由於頻繁的修改,塑膠回收業務的監管框架可能很複雜。這些法律和法規因國家和地區而異,概述了產品安全規範,並對在產品包裝中使用再生塑膠提出了建議。由再生塑膠製成的產品必須符合要銷售的相關國家或地區立法或指南中概述的規格。
在再生塑膠方面,美國、歐洲和印度都選擇了不同的策略。在美國,回收塑膠可以在未經批准的情況下用於包裝和食品接觸包裝(儘管建議這樣做)。前提是它符合與原生塑膠相同的品質標準。另一方面,歐洲正在採取更嚴格的方法,檢查回收過程的每一步。
此外,在歐盟,各國必須遵守三個不同層面的規範:國家、歐洲和國際。最後但並非最不重要的一點是,印度支持其他應用,但尚未準備好在與食品接觸的產品中使用再生塑膠。因此,各國監管的變化成為主要參與者在全球範圍內增加收入的主要障礙,從而限制了市場的成長。
Global Recycled Plastic Market reached US$ 48.6 billion in 2022 and is expected to reach US$ 95.5 billion by 2030, growing with a CAGR of 8.9% during the forecast period 2023-2030.
The global market for recycled plastic is a dynamic rapidly developing industry, driven by environmental concerns, regulatory limitations and the rising demand for environmentally friendly and sustainable products.
Due to recent advancements in plastic recycling technologies that allow for improved quality and safety of post-consumer recycled plastics intended for food packaging applications it has created growth prospects for the packaging industry to grow double the share in the forecast period. Furthermore, the high price of crude oil, a feedstock for the petrochemicals used in the manufacture of plastics has encouraged the use of recycled plastics for food packaging in recent years and will probably increase in coming years.
In 2022, the polyethylene product segment dominated the market and accounted for over 30.4% of globally revenue. The increased need for packaging materials in consumer goods, food and beverage, industrial and numerous other industries is responsible for this high share. It is also frequently used in milk cartons, chopping boards, rubbish bins and packaging for laundry detergents, among many other things.
The government globally has built regulations and policies to boost the recycled plastic market by creating a positive environment for sustainable practices leading to improved adoption of recycled plastics. Bans or restrictions on single-use plastics, such as plastic bags, straws and cutlery, have been imposed in several nations and regions which has acted as a major step towards the adoption of recycled plastic practices. The restrictions promote the use of substitute, more environmentally friendly materials, such as recycled plastics.
The "Maximising Resources, Minimising Waste" campaign, which was unveiled in July 2023, is one of the strategies the European Government has outlined to improve recycling and encourage the repair and reuse of already existing materials. The combines several policies supported by public money to assist in maintaining goods and resources in use as long as feasible and at their optimum worth, expanding the economy and enhancing employment.
A tax of more than £200 per Tons on plastic packaging made in UK or imported there that does not contain at least 30% recycled plastic was also instituted by the government in April 2022. There is still work to be done, however, which is why the government is implementing a deposit return program for beverage containers to encourage the recycling of billions more plastic bottles and prevent their disposal in landfills, incinerators or as litter, in addition to plans to streamline recycling collection processes for every home and business in England.
The recycled plastic industry is mostly driven by the investments and product launches of key competitors. By improving the availability of recycled plastic materials, extending the range of applications for them and promoting sustainability, these activities help the industry flourish.
Major companies are constantly launching new recycled plastics-based goods and materials. The consist of consumer goods, textiles, building supplies and packaging materials. The need for recycled plastics is stimulated across industries by product diversification.
For instance, on January 16, 2020, Nestle stated that it would invest up to CHF 2 billion to help pioneer the transition from virgin plastics to food-grade recycled plastics and to accelerate the creation of novel sustainable packaging solutions. Nestle will cut its usage of virgin plastics by one-third in 2025, building on its 2018 commitment to make 100% of its packaging recyclable or reusable, while also collaborating with others to promote the circular economy and strive to clean up plastic trash from seas, lakes and rivers.
Due to frequent modifications, the regulatory framework for the plastic recycling business can be complicated. The laws and regulations, which differ by nation and region, outline specifications for product safety and make recommendations for the use of recycled plastic in product packaging. Products made from recycled plastic must meet the specifications outlined in the relevant national or regional legislation or guidelines to be sold.
When it comes to recycled plastic, U.S., Europe and India have all chosen different strategies. In U.S., recycled plastic can be used in packaging and food-contact wrapping without obtaining approval (though it is advised). The is provided that it meets the same quality standards as virgin plastic. Europe, on the other hand, is taking a much harder approach by going over each step of the recycling process.
Additionally, in the European Union, nations are required to comply with norms at three different levels: national, European and international. Last but not least, India supports other applications but is not yet ready to trust the use of recycled plastic in products that come into contact with food. Thus changing regulation from country to country acts as a major hurdle for the key players to build revenue globally leading to restraining the market growth.
The global recycled plastic market is segmented based on type, plastic type, source, process, end-user and region.
PET recycled plastic is a growing market based on plastic types and is expected to cover more than 40.9% market share in the forecast period. PET, also known as polyethylene terephthalate, is a popular plastic material valued for its strength, clarity and recyclable nature. The term "PET recycled plastic" describes the procedure of collecting, sanitizing and recycling PET plastic trash to make new materials and goods. Companies are also investing in bringing the latest recycled PET plastic to the market.
For instance, in 2022, Continental will allow the creation of tires using reprocessed polyester made from recycled plastic bottles. Through a mechanical process, the new environmentally friendly polyester yarn will be produced from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottles and utilized to make the tire carcass. The can entirely take the place of traditional polyester.
Furthermore, Kao Corporation will employ chemically recycled PET (polyethylene terephthalate) material produced by PET Refine Technology Co., Ltd., a group subsidiary of JEPLAN, Inc., for its cosmetics bottle containers as part of its efforts to achieve plastic circularity in society. Beginning in June 2021, it will gradually introduce this material, starting with the bottles for its Twany cosmetics line.
Asia-Pacific has been a dominant force in the global recycled plastic market which has covered nearly 45.1% of 2022 in terms of revenue. The packaging industry is expanding throughout Asia-Pacific and the sector has seen technical breakthroughs. The strong demand for consumer goods, electrical & electronics and building & construction products, particularly from China, India and Southeast Asia, is what fuels the expansion of the region's packaging business. Furthermore, it is anticipated that a flexible regulatory environment will counteract the limitations that are typically present in Western markets.
One of the biggest markets for plastic goods is India. According to the Central Pollution Control Board, 26,000 Tons of plastic garbage are produced daily. Since a significant amount of this plastic garbage is not collected and eventually ends up in the environment untreated, it is also one of the nations that is most affected by the issue of plastic pollution. Thus, the government is building regulations to reduce the plastic dominance and improve recycled plastic in the country.
The Bureau of Indian Standards is responsible for issuing regulations in India covering the use of plastic, PET and recycled PET. The detailed steps for the recovery and recycling of plastic waste are outlined in the paper IS 14534: 1998 titled "Guidelines For Recycling of Plastics." It provides a thorough explanation of the steps to take in the selection, separation and processing of waste and scrap that can be recycled.
Plastic is in high demand as a result of the coronavirus outbreak. Face shields, gloves, takeaway food containers and bubble wrap are in high demand for online shopping from Wuhan to New York. Waste has increased because the majority of it cannot be recycled.
However, there is yet another effect. A pricing competition between recycled and new plastic produced by the oil industry has been intensified by the pandemic. Price information and interviews with more than twenty enterprises across five continents demonstrate that recyclers globally are losing this battle which has severely hampered the market growth.
Even recycled plastic beverage bottles-the most popular recycled plastic product-have lost some of their viability since COVID-19. Independent Commodity Intelligence Services (ICIS) market experts estimate that the cost of the recycled plastic used to create them ranges from 83% to 93% higher than the cost of new bottle-grade plastic.
Politicians from numerous nations had pledged to fight the waste produced by single-use plastics when the pandemic hit. In 2018, China, which formerly imported more than half of the plastic garbage traded globally, outlawed the import of the majority of it. From 2021, the European Union intends to outlaw numerous single-use plastic products. The American Senate is debating whether to outlaw single-use plastics and whether to set mandatory recycling goals which has created more questions on the recycled plastic market growth in the forecast period.
The conflict between Russia and Ukraine might have several effects on the world market for recycled plastic. In the chemical and industrial industries, Russia and Ukraine are important actors. Global supply networks, particularly those in the market for recycled plastic, might be disrupted as a result of the war and the attendant geopolitical tensions. The export of plastic garbage to recycling facilities and the shipment of recycled plastics may also encounter delays, according to major stakeholders in the market.
Oil price changes can be caused by geopolitical unrest and have an impact on how much virgin and recycled polymers cost. The price competitiveness of recycled plastics may be impacted by price volatility in the world oil market. Trade restrictions and sanctions may have an impact on international trade in recovered plastics and plastic trash leading to hampering the market growth.
The major global players in the market include: Covetsro AG, REMONDIS SE & Co. KG, Biffa, Stericycle, Republic Services, Inc., WM Intellectual Property Holdings, L.L.C., Veolia, Shell International B.V., Waste Connections, CLEAN HARBORS, INC and others.
The global recycled plastic market report would provide approximately 77 tables, 84 figures and 206 Pages.
