MARKET INTRODUCTION
The commodity plastics refer to plastics used in large volume for regular household applications. These plastics find use in a wide range of applications such as clothing, trash containers, disposables, packaging film, and others. Commodity plastics are not used in critical service environments and therefore, do not require high mechanical strength. Therefore, these plastics are relatively inexpensive and exhibit lower mechanical properties than engineered plastics. Some examples of commodity plastics include polyethylene (PE), polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and polypropylene (PP). These plastics are widely used to manufacture cups, plates, trays, printed materials, toys, and other household products.
MARKET DYNAMICS
The commodity plastics market is anticipated to grow in the forecast period owing to driving factors such as the rising disposable income of the population coupled with high demands for consumer goods. Moreover, demands from the thriving packaging industry and increasing production of lightweight electric vehicles further fuel the growth of the commodity plastics market. However, growing environmental concerns regarding the disposal of plastic waste severely hamper the growth of the commodity plastics market. On the other hand, untapped markets of developing countries offer significant growth opportunities for the major players involved in the commodity plastics market during the forecast period.
