How Automation is Revolutionizing the Plastic Recycling Industry: Market Outlook 2024-2034

The automatic plastic recycling market is expected to witness significant growth from 2024 to 2034, driven by advancements in automation and the increasing demand for sustainable waste management solutions. Automatic plastic recycling utilizes advanced technologies, such as AI, robotics, and sensor-based systems, to sort, clean, and recycle plastic waste more efficiently than manual processes. This automation is key to addressing the global plastic waste crisis, as it reduces the cost of recycling, improves the quality of recycled materials, and enables higher processing volumes.

The global automatic plastic recycling industry was valued at US$ 15.0 Bn in 2023 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of 7.6% from 2024 to 2034, reaching US$ 40.7 Bn by the end of 2034.

Factors contributing to this growth include heightened regulatory measures against plastic waste, increasing environmental awareness, and the adoption of automated systems in recycling plants. The Asia-Pacific region is expected to dominate the market due to rising plastic consumption and investments in recycling infrastructure. North America and Europe are also key regions, driven by stringent government regulations and advanced recycling technologies.
