Market Overview:
The global molded plastics market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.89% from 2024 to 2031. Molded plastics are synthetic compounds shaped into various forms depending on their intended application, with customization options including pigments and colors. These plastics enhance product longevity, durability, and damage protection. Since the 1940s, when plastics were first mass-produced, they have become an integral part of daily life. Global plastic production reached nearly 360 million metric tons by 2018 and is expected to triple by 2050, accounting for 20% of global oil consumption. The increasing demand from sectors such as packaging, automotive, electronics, and medical devices is driving the market growth.
