Furthermore, the advent of bio-based plastic is also driving global plastics market growth. Citing an instance, Kolon Industries partnered with SK Global Chemical to create an eco-friendly, biodegradable plastic called PBAT to manufacture recycled products using waste plastic as raw materials.
Parallelly, government initiatives towards promoting recyclability of conventional materials are also adding momentum to overall industry expansion.
Despite the positive market outlook, environmental deterioration caused by non-biodegradable plastic is hampering the business dynamics.
Considering the regional landscape, North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and Europe are the key contributors to global plastics market value. Europe captured a significant share in the market owing to substantial levels of exports, easy availability of the product, and presence of developed automotive and manufacturing facilities.
Meanwhile, Asia-Pacific is slated to exhibit a hefty compound annual growth over the forecast period 2020-2027. This can be attributed to availability of lower production and labor costs, rapid urbanization, rising per capita income, and influx of companies setting up manufacturing bases in the region.
Major contenders in global plastics market are Chevron Phillips Chemical Co. LLC, Eastman Chemical Company, Celanese Corp., Arkema S.A., Sumitomo Chemical Co. Ltd., Evonik Industries A.G., DuPont de Nemours Inc., Dow Inc., Saudi Basic Industries Corp. (SABIC), and BASF SE.
