Post-consumer Recycled Plastics in Consumer Electronics Market Report Highlights
In 2023, the non-bottle rigid sector dominated the market, witnessing substantial growth in plastic recycling. This surge is linked to heightened acquisitions of difficult-to-recycle items, such as mixed resin rigid bales, by exporters, coupled with the worldwide expansion of the recovery and manufacturing of these commodities.
During the forecast period, the polycarbonate (PC) segment held the majority of the market revenue share. Post-consumer recycled polycarbonate (PC) resins showcase attributes such as heightened toughness, impact strength, light transmittance, protection against ultraviolet (UV) radiations, as well as chemical and heat resistance. These properties make them particularly suitable for applications in the components of electrical and electronic devices, such as television frames, mobile cases, and electrical housing.
In 2023, the Asia Pacific region emerged as the leading player in the global market with the largest market share. The expected expansion in the Asia Pacific construction industry in the coming years is linked to the increasing demand for non-residential construction projects, including schools, hospitals, and colleges. This upswing is projected to stimulate the demand for personal protective equipment products, such as helmets, safety vests, safety belts, and various other items, thereby propelling the expansion of the industry.
The global key market players include BASF SE, Covestro AG, INEOS Styrolution Group GmbH, LAVERGNE, Inc., MBA Polymers, Inc., PolyVisions, SABIC, and Trinseo.
