Global Thermoformed Plastics Market is forecasted to reach a market size of ~US$ 60 billion during (2017-2028): Ken Research

What Is the Size of Global Thermoformed Plastic Industry?

Global Thermoformed Plastic market is growing at a CAGR of ~% in 2017-2022 and is expected to reach ~USD Bn by 2028F.  The Thermoformed Plastic Market is largely driven by rising demand for effective packaging solutions across all the major industries.

Thermoformed plastics are most commonly used to make clamshell packages, package blisters, mailer trays, retail package liners, and many others. The wide acceptance of these products is fueling market growth. Furthermore, thermoformed plastics are also used in the infrastructure and automotive industries. In building and infrastructure, thermoformed plastics are used mainly for insulation applications, whereas in automotive, it has applications in interior and exterior body parts of automobiles.

The major challenge faced by the market is the volatile prices of the raw materials used for making thermoformed plastics. Hydrocarbon fuels such as crude oil, natural gas, and coal are the most common primary sources of thermoformed plastics. The regulations over the preservation of natural resources act as a restraining factor for the market. Social upheaval in major crude oil-producing countries, including Libya, Venezuela, Nigeria, Iran, and Iraq, has harmed crude oil production, causing demand and supply irregularities. The market is expected to exhibit significant growth in the forecast period due to surging demand for thermoformed plastics products in the healthcare and pharmaceutical industries.
