Global Plastic Polymer Market: Overview

Polymer is made from the combination of several monomers, which produce different types of polymers based on their molecular chain. Plastic polymers are chained molecules with high molecular weight. They are synthetic polymers that can be remolded or reshaped owing to their elasticity property. They are also called as organic polymers.

Global Plastic Polymer Market: Growth Factors

Increasing urbanization, growing income and rising demand from the end-user segments are resulting in high growth of the global market. Utilization of the plastic in food processing industry due to consumer preference and changing food practice to store the food products such as raw meat, fish, and vegetables in consumable state without degrading the nutritional qualities of the food are key factors augmenting the growth of the global plastic polymer market. Application of plastic in road safety and constructional equipment such as helmets, safety goggles, sign boards, and barricades as preventive measures in order to avoid hazardous mishap is also one of the factors driving the global plastic polymer market. Research and development for new innovations and better alternatives respective to plastic polymers is also a vital factor growing the market globally. Moreover, development of plastic types which can be recycled after single-use has boosted growth rate of the plastic polymer market. On the other hand, government taking initiatives to ban un-degradable plastic material that are hazardous to ecosystem may hinder the growth of the plastic polymers in future.

Global Plastic Polymer Market: Segmentation

The global plastic polymer market is segmented based on various types of plastic application such as engineering plastics, commodity plastics, and specialty plastics.
