Based on plastic processing, the plastic bottles and containers market is segmented into extraction blow molding, injection blow molding, and others. Approximately 40% of plastic is processed through this technique. The advantage of using injection molding machines is that an ample amount of molded parts can be produced economically with no further need for finishing the operation. Technological advancements and innovations in the injection blow molding machines are expected to influence the market growth during the assessment period. For instance, According to the Medical device and diagnostic industry, injection blow machines was invented to control mold temperature. Gas-assisted injection molding is evolved from the modification of structural foam process known as gas counter pressure, this technical advancement or process minimizes the surface swirls, and also resolves problems associated with foamed parts finishing or painting.

In terms of application, the plastic bottles and containers market is segmented into food and beverage, pharmaceutical, personal care, household, and others. The food and beverage industry is expected to be the major consumer of plastic bottles and containers. This is majorly attributed to the growing use of plastic packaging in the food and beverage industry and official approval to use recycled plastic for highly disposable food and beverage products. For instance, according to the American Chemistry Council, the most common plastic resins approved by the FDA for food contact are post-consumer recycled (PCR) PET, polypropylene (PP), high-density polyethylene (HDPE), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and polycarbonate (PC).

The growing food and beverage industry is expected to boost the market owing to the increase in the use of recyclable packaging for food and beverage products. For instance, according to Invest India (Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Government of India), the Indian food & retail market and the dairy industry are estimated to reach USD 828.92 billion and USD 140 billion respectively by 2020.

Regional Insights

Geographically, the plastic bottles and containers market is segmented into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Latin America and the Middle East & Africa (LAMEA).

In North America, awareness regarding the protection of the environment, and the tendency to use recyclable plastic is expected to elevate the market. The growing use of recyclable plastic for highly disposable products to reduce non-recyclable plastic in the region is foreseen to positively influence market growth. For instance, according to the American Chemistry Council, around 90% of Americans can recycle plastic bottles in their communities, and over 1.36 billion Kilogram of plastic bottles (beverages, cleaners, detergents, household, and others) were recycled in the U.S. in 2015.

In Europe, the grocery retail sector is the largest source of plastic packaging, accounting for almost 1 million tons, from which rigid plastic packaging accounts for two-thirds of plastic packaging. It highlights the fact that the grocery sector in the UK is the largest user of rigid plastic packaging. For instance, according to WRAP, 60% of rigid plastic is utilized in the retail grocery products and 40% in others.

The growing food and beverage industry in the emerging economies such as China, India, and others is expected to surge the demand for plastic bottles and containers in the region. Plastic bottles are generally utilized for juice, carbonated, and non-carbonated drinks owing to their transparency and good quality printing. Additionally, the use of plastic bottles and containers is also observed in the packaging of grocery products such as cooking oil, detergent, cleaning liquids, coffee, tea, canned and jarred food, and others. The processed food market ranks fifth in terms of production and consumption is one of the largest industries in India.
