全球再生塑膠產業展望(至2034年)Global Recycled Plastics Industry Outlook Report Till 2034 |
再生塑膠是透過重新加工塑膠廢棄物來製造新產品的材料。常見的再生塑膠包括聚對苯二甲酸乙二醇酯(PET)、高密度聚苯乙烯(HDPE)、聚氯乙烯(PVC)、低密度聚乙烯(LDPE)、聚丙烯(PP)、聚苯乙烯(PS)、聚醯胺(PA)和丙烯腈-丁二烯-苯乙烯共聚物(ABS)。
塑膠廢棄物對環境構成嚴重威脅,因為它污染了土地和水體,並危害陸地和海洋生態系統中的野生動植物。塑膠回收在緩解這些問題方面發揮關鍵作用,因為它可以減少新塑膠的產量,並減少污染和環境惡化。人們日益轉向永續包裝,尤其是在電子產品、化妝品和消費品網路購物增多的推動下,這推動了對再生塑膠的需求。環保意識的增強、節能減排的需求以及塑膠廢棄物帶來的危害是市場成長的主要驅動力。
再生塑膠需求分析
作為一種再生塑膠,PET 引領市場,廣泛用於飲料瓶、食品容器、紡織品、地毯、包裝材料等。其高回收率和低加工成本使其成為廣受歡迎的選擇。例如,在印度,「塑膠變革基金會」利用回收的寶特瓶建造永續住宅,以展示其在建築領域的實用性。
聚丙烯也發揮重要作用,由於其在各終端產業的廣泛應用而快速成長。它常用於汽車零件、食品包裝、醫療設備、產品標籤等。聚丙烯的多功能性和在各行業的日益廣泛應用將對再生塑膠未來的成長做出重大貢獻。
寶特瓶因其廣泛用於飲料、藥品、化妝品、家庭護理等領域而成為最大的塑膠廢棄物來源之一。因此,回收活動集中於此類別,推動了整體市場的擴張。
市場動態
擴大各行業的採用
汽車、建築、電子、包裝等各行各業對再生塑膠的使用日益成長,是市場的主要驅動力。新冠疫情也導致網路購物激增和個人防護設備(PPE)的廣泛使用,導致包裝材料需求激增。
汽車產業在內飾和外飾零件的製造中擴大使用再生塑膠,而在電子行業,再生塑膠用於各種資訊和通訊技術產品中,這與主要科技公司的永續性目標相一致。
使用再生塑膠的環境效益顯著,因為重複使用塑膠可以減少對石油和天然氣等石化燃料的依賴,而這些燃料通常用於生產原生塑膠。這種轉變有助於節約自然資源,降低二氧化碳排放,並顯著減少溫室氣體排放。因此,再生塑膠在減少空氣污染和應對氣候變遷方面發揮關鍵作用。
再生塑膠市場的問題
儘管成長前景看好,但再生塑膠仍面臨來自原生塑膠的激烈競爭,原生塑膠更穩定,更適合與食品和精緻產品直接接觸,而再生塑膠則因潛在的污染而舉步維艱。
此外,隨著石化燃料供應的增加,特別是美國頁岩氣的繁榮,原生塑膠的生產變得更加便宜和容易,這對再生塑膠市場的成長構成了嚴重威脅,因為製造商通常會選擇更具成本效益且容易獲得的原生材料。
本報告對全球再生塑膠產業進行調查分析,提供了有關市場動態和趨勢、細分市場需求和製造商概況的資訊。
目標公司
Recycled plastics are materials that have been reprocessed from plastic waste to create new products. Common types of recycled plastics include Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET), High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC), Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Polypropylene (PP), Polystyrene (PS), Polyamides (PA), and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), etc
Plastic waste poses serious environmental threats as it pollutes land, water bodies, and harms wildlife both on land and in marine ecosystems. Recycling plastics plays a critical role in mitigating these issues by reducing the volume of new plastic production, which in turn lessens pollution and environmental degradation. The increasing shift towards sustainable packaging especially fuelled by the growth in online shopping of electronics, cosmetics, and consumer goods is driving the demand for recycled plastics. The rising environmental awareness, the need for energy conservation, and the harmful effects of plastic waste disposal are all key factors accelerating market growth.
Demand Analysis for Recycled Plastics
In terms of types of recycled plastics, PET leads the market due to its widespread use in beverage bottles, food containers, textiles, carpets, and packaging materials. Its high recycling rate and low processing costs make it a popular choice. For instance, in India, the Plastics for Change Foundation built a sustainable home using recycled PET bottles showcasing its practical use in construction.
Polypropylene is another key player and is growing at a fast pace due to its widespread use in various end-use industries. It is commonly found in automotive parts, food packaging, medical devices, and product labels. Its versatility and rising usage across industries make it a strong contributor to the future growth of recycled plastics.
Plastic bottles are one of the largest sources of plastic waste due to their extensive use in beverages, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, homecare, and more. As a result, recycling efforts are heavily concentrated on this category, fueling overall market expansion.
Leading manufacturers in the recycled plastics industry include Berry Global Group Inc., ALPLA Group, Plastipak, UltrePET, Phoenix Technologies, PepsiCo, Tridi Oasis, Incom Recycle, Ioniqa Technologies, SUEZ Group, Veolia, Green Line Polymers, and INEOS.
Regional Insights
Asia-Pacific region is at the forefront of the recycled plastics market and the leadership is driven by rising environmental consciousness and the implementation of strict anti-plastic regulations. For eg, India banned the production and use of plastic carry bags thinner than 75 microns starting in 2022.
On February 19, 2025, SK Chemicals announced that it will establish a plastic recycling center at its Ulsan facility.
In Europe, high landfill taxes make waste disposal more expensive than recycling. The European Union's ban on single-use plastics, enforced from 2021, is further boosting demand for recycled alternatives. These regulations are creating momentum for recycled plastics across global markets.
In September 2024, LyondellBasell has partnered with Romanian automaker Dacia to integrate recycled plastic into the exterior design of the All-New Dacia Duster. Key exterior components such as bumpers, trims, and body side moldings now use a durable material called Starkle, which is produced from LYB's CirculenRecover recycled polypropylene (PP).
Market Dynamics
Growing Adoption Across Industries
The growing application of recycled plastics across multiple sectors such as automotive, construction, electronics, and packaging is a major market driver. The COVID-19 pandemic also contributed to a spike in demand for packaging materials due to a surge in online shopping and the widespread use of personal protective equipment (PPE).
In the automotive industry, recycled plastics are increasingly used in the manufacturing of interior and exterior parts. In electronics, recycled polymers are now being used in various information and communication technology products, aligning with sustainability goals of major tech firms.
The environmental benefits of using recycled plastics are substantial as reusing plastic reduces reliance on fossil fuels like oil and natural gas, which are typically used to produce virgin plastics. This shift contributes to the conservation of natural resources, lowers carbon dioxide emissions, and significantly reduces the release of greenhouse gases. As a result, recycled plastics are playing a key role in minimizing air pollution and tackling climate change.
Challenges in the Recycled Plastics Market
Despite the promising growth, recycled plastics face stiff competition from virgin plastics, which offer higher quality and better performance especially for food-grade or medical applications. Virgin plastics are more consistent and suitable for applications requiring direct contact with food or sensitive products, something recycled plastics can struggle with due to potential contamination.
Moreover, the increasing availability of fossil fuels, particularly due to the shale gas boom in the US, makes virgin plastic production cheaper and more accessible. This poses a serious threat to the growth of the recycled plastics market, as manufacturers often opt for more cost-effective and readily available virgin materials.
