Global Recycling Equipment and Machinery Market Outlook 2025-2035: Key Developments and Future Scope
Recycling Equipment and Machinery Market
According to Future Market Insights (FMI), the market is valued at USD 1.2 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach USD 2.2 billion by 2035, expanding at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1%.
The FMI report, "Recycling Equipment and Machinery Market Size, Share, and Forecast 2025-2035," indicates global revenues will surge by USD 1.0 billion over the decade, propelled by escalating waste volumes, resource scarcity, and demand for efficient shredding, baling, and waste-to-energy systems in municipal and industrial settings.
A Decade of Growth Anchored by Circular Economy Mandates and Tech Integration:
The shift toward sustainable resource recovery is redefining waste management landscapes. Between 2025 and 2030, the market will grow by USD 0.4 billion to USD 1.6 billion, driven by rising landfill bans and initial adoption of mechanized sorting in construction and automotive recycling.
Between 2030 and 2035, FMI projects an additional USD 0.6 billion in expansion-capturing 60% of total growth-as AI-powered sorters, optical technologies, and real-time monitoring become mainstream, enhancing material recovery rates by up to 30%.
"The circular economy isn't just a buzzword anymore-it's a regulatory imperative that's supercharging investments in smart recycling infrastructure," said an FMI research analyst. "From e-waste to metals, these advancements are turning waste into high-value assets while slashing emissions."
