Market Overview: The global commodity plastics market had a valuation of USD 477.91 billion in 2021, and it is projected to exhibit a revenue compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.1% throughout the forecast period. This growth is attributed to an escalating demand for consumer goods and the increased use of commodity plastics in various sectors, including food and beverage, online delivery, medical, and pharmaceutical industries. Commodity plastics, also known as commodity polymers, are a type of plastic produced in large quantities for applications like packaging and household products. They are cost-effective, possess low electrical conductivity, density, and toughness. Additionally, they are recyclable and can be easily molded into various shapes, including food containers and bottles.

Key drivers for the commodity plastics market include the packaging, medical, pharmaceutical, and consumer goods sectors. These plastics find applications in a wide range of products, such as disposable plates, cups, medical trays, and seeding trays. Commodity thermoplastics dominate the medical industry, with applications in lab ware, medical films, surgical tools, and more due to their cost-effectiveness and ease of processing. Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) is the most commonly used plastic in medical applications.

Polyolefins, including polyethylene and polypropylene, are widely employed in food packaging for products such as films, coatings, and closures. Companies like Berry Global Group Inc. are collaborating to create more circular and sustainable food packaging solutions using recycled plastic. Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) is utilized in soft drink and single-use water bottles and food-grade containers. Polypropylene is suitable for high-heat industrial applications, microwavable containers, and more. Other commodity plastics like Polyester, Vinyl, Acetate Film, High-Density Polyethylene, and polypropylene sheeting find use in various applications like potato chip bags, sterile medical supplies, and signage.
