The global recycled plastics market is estimated at USD 36.93 billion in 2017 and is projected to reach USD 50.36 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 6.4% between 2017 and 2022. The market is witnessing growth due to the growing preference for recycled plastics over virgin plastics as a result of severe pollution caused by the disposal of used plastics in oceans and the scarcity of landfill areas in many countries. Factors such as the increasing use of recycled plastics in many new applications in the packaging, automotive, and electrical & electronics industries and many favorable initiatives by governments in many countries promoting the use of recycled plastics offer lucrative opportunities for the growth of the recycled plastics market. High cost of recycled plastics and stringent competition from virgin plastics in terms of performance are the major factors restraining the growth of the market. The proposed ban by China on import of certain waste plastic scraps and irregular collection of waste plastics for its reprocessing are some of the factors challenging the growth of the recycled plastics market globally.

Packaging: The fastest-growing segment of the recycled plastics market, by end-use industry
Packaging is estimated to be the fastest-growing end-use industry segment of the recycled plastics market during the forecast period. This growth is attributed to the increasing use of recycled plastics in food and beverage packaging, as technological advancements have made recycled resins suitable for food applications, which was not the case until a few years earlier.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET): The fastest-growing segment of the recycled plastics market, by type
Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) is estimated to be the fastest-growing type segment of the recycled plastics market during the forecast period (2017-2022). PET segment is expected to have the highest growth as PET-based plastics are easy to recycle, and PET bottles are the most easily sorted and collected source of used plastics.
