Market Opportunities

  • Expanding green packaging market creates lucrative growth
  • Product innovation creates growth opportunities

Market Definition

Plastics used frequently in everyday household applications are referred to as commodity plastics. These plastics are used in many products, such as disposable items, clothing, packaging film, and trash cans. Since commodity plastics are not used in environments that demand critical services, high mechanical strength is unnecessary. As a result, compared to engineered plastics, these plastics are less expensive and have worse mechanical properties.

North America Commodity Plastic Market Dynamics

Drivers

  • Beverage packaging drives the market

Common plastics are less heavy, more stable structurally, and abrasion resistant. They are ideal for packaging applications because they can be easily recycled and molded into various shapes. In the upcoming years, rising demand for packaging bottles, crates, trays, etc., for food and beverage packaging is anticipated to drive this demand. They are simple to recycle and can be molded into various shapes, making them perfect for packaging applications. Growing demand for food and beverage packaging includes bottles, trays, crates, and others, which creates a drive in the market surge.

  • Increasing use of plastics in packaging

Plastics are ideal for packaging applications because they can be readily recycled, formed, or molded into various shapes or solid objects, such as bottles or food containers. These plastics can be used in multiple products because they can be combined with characteristics such as low density, transparency, low electrical conductivity, and toughness. An increase in the use of plastics in packaging and other end-use industries is fueling this growth. However, the market is anticipated to expand over the coming years due to the rising demand for specialized commodity plastics in the healthcare sector to manufacture medical masks, gowns, and other safety kits.

  • An increase in industrialization and consumer disposable income drives the market

An increase in industrialization, and expansion of the automotive and construction industries have contributed to the growth of this market. The untapped markets in developing countries will likely be financially advantageous for market participants. Market expansion has been sparked by rising disposable income and strong consumer demand. The market for commodity plastics is expected to grow due to factors such as rising consumer disposable income, increased production of lightweight electric vehicles and materials in the automotive sector, rising metal prices, and others.

Opportunities

  • Expanding green packaging market creates lucrative growth

Green packaging, also known as sustainable packaging, uses materials and manufacturing processes to package products that use the least energy and the least amount of the environment's resources. Biodegradable and recyclable materials frequently replace plastic and Styrofoam in environmentally friendly packaging. In 2022, SCGC developed the first ISCC Plus-certified food packaging in partnership with Visy Packaging. Food packaging made from circular PP, a type of plastic with qualities similar to virgin plastic resins, is eco-friendly. SCGC has collaborated with partners and brand owners to develop environmentally friendly packaging that keeps up with the rapidly growing green packaging market. SCGC has expertise in material science and environmentally friendly plastic innovation.

  • Product innovation creates growth opportunities

The market for commodity plastics is experiencing a significant trend that is gaining popularity: product innovation. The major players are concentrating on technological advancements to stay competitive in the commodity plastics market. Various easily recyclable high barrier flexible films were also introduced for applications involving fresh foods. Fresh proteins like red meat, poultry, processed meat, fish, and hard cheese are best served in this packaging. Among the products offered are flexible thermoforming films, flow rap films with a high barrier option, lidding films, and vacuum pouches. For the consumer's convenience, more lock and peel seal options are available; thus, innovation in the products to make it more convenient creates a market surge.

Restraints/Challenges

  • Growing environmental concerns impede market expansion

Primary microplastics, produced in millimetric or submillimetric sizes, are present in various common household products, such as toothpaste, exfoliating lotions, and facial cleansers. Plastic waste disposal releases harmful chemicals into the atmosphere, lowering soil quality. These dangerous substances pose significant health risks if they enter groundwater. Additionally, dumping plastic waste into the ocean could harm marine life. It may entangle and ingest fish, birds, and other aquatic animals, killing them. As a result, the public's growing awareness of plastics' detrimental effects on the environment and strict regulations outlawing their excessive use are two critical factors limiting the growth of the market's revenue.

  • Growing government regulations impede market expansion

Manufacturers are having trouble managing their production facilities due to logistical issues, further hurting consumer demand. The government regulations that forbid the use of plastics for packaging are expected to limit market growth. During the forecast period, market growth is anticipated to be constrained by stringent environmental regulations governing non-biodegradable plastics and growing consumer awareness of the adverse effects of improper plastic disposal.
