“Recycled metals to contribute significant share in sustainable manufacturing market.”
Recycled metals such as steel and aluminum play a significant role in the sustainable manufacturing market because they reduce energy use, lower emissions, and conserve natural resources. Using recycled metals requires far less energy than producing new metals from raw materials, leading to substantial reductions in carbon emissions and energy consumption. Additionally, recycling metals helps decrease the environmental impact associated with mining and raw material extraction and divert waste from landfills. Recycled metals offer a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative for manufacturers, who can integrate these materials into products to meet sustainability goals and satisfy consumer demand for greener products. Overall, using recycled metals supports the circular economy by extending the life cycle of materials and promoting resource efficiency.
“Bioplastics & biopolymers segment contribute significant growth rate in the sustainable manufacturing market.”
Bioplastics and biopolymers are expected to grow significantly in the sustainable manufacturing market due to their renewable feedstocks, lower carbon footprint, and biodegradability. Regulatory support, including policies promoting sustainable materials and discouraging single-use plastics, boosts adoption. Rising consumer demand for eco-friendly products, technology innovation, and research expanding their applications also contribute to their growth. Additionally, bioplastics and biopolymers support the circular economy by enabling closed-loop systems for resource efficiency and waste reduction. These factors drive their increasing use as sustainable alternatives to traditional plastics..
“North America to contribute significant growth rate in sustainable manufacturing market.”
In recent years, North America has witnessed several transformative initiatives aligned with Sustainable manufacturing principles. In North America, this transition is facilitated by several factors, including a strong ecosystem of technology companies, research institutions, innovative startups, robust infrastructure, and a skilled workforce. Moreover, North America, particularly the US and Canada, has seen a tightening of environmental regulations and standards related to emissions, waste management, and energy efficiency. Programs like the Clean Air Act in the United States and various provincial regulations in Canada are encouraging sustainable practices. A joint program of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Department of Energy (DOE), Energy Star promotes energy-efficient products and practices. Initiatives like the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) and the Western Climate Initiative (WCI) provide frameworks for carbon trading, incentivizing companies to reduce emissions.
