Key Drivers

The global plastic waste management market is becoming more mainstream thanks to the stringent policies & regulations enforced by the governments to effectively manage plastic waste material, followed by the rising concerns related to the harmful effects of plastics caused to the environment. The growing level of carbon emission rate is encouraging the adoption of plastic waste management services to minimize the impact of plastics on the environment. The emerging need for proper disposable management of plastic waste is forecast to expand the market growth. The growing adoption of advanced technologies and norms used for arranging, reprocessing and assortment of recyclable plastics will pave the way for market. Furthermore, laws and guidelines enforced by the government and related agencies across the countries for plastic waste disposal management are anticipated to drive the market over the forecast period.

Additionally, the rapid urbanization, increasing population rate, and the growing penetration of the industries, especially in the developing economies such as China and India, is further accelerating the demand of the market in the coming years. The rising research & development activities and an increase in the technological advancements in the process of plastic waste management are leading to more efficient recycling of the plastics. In parallel, the rising pandemic of COVID-19 is resulting in the high use of plastics due to the increasing number of online fast food orders. The people are becoming more aware of the benefits associated with the use of plastic waste management methods, which in turn, is inclining the consumers to use recycled plastic rather than using conventional plastic. On the other hand, the lack of proper infrastructure for the plastic waste collection & segregation and high cost associated with the recycling of plastics are the two factors that will hamper the growth of the market. Moreover, the need for a skilled and highly motivated laborers to process the waste increases the operating costs and impacts profit margins, hindering the market growth.
