Due to the favorable properties, plastic bottles have now become the norm in the packaging of a wide variety of substances. However, most plastics are not biodegradable, which leads to the generation of significant volumes of plastic waste, which can be neither buried nor incinerated without causing severe environmental problems. As a result of this situation, the global plastic bottle recycling market is likely to post a steady growth rate in the coming years. Bottle Recycling could be resolved by their rising use in clothing amid recycling cost constraints, as per Transparency Market Research. Plastic bottle recycling has emerged as a key topic in recent years due to the steady acknowledgment of the adverse effect of the increasing volume of plastic waste generated by humans.
The global plastic bottle recycling market is divided into polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polypropylene and high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Of these, PET bottles are the leading segment of the plastic bottle recycling market, as it has become the material of choice in the food and beverages industry, which is making the most of the rise in the demand for packaged food and beverages. HDPE bottles are also likely to hold a key share in the global plastic bottle recycling market in the coming years.
从地理上讲，由于美国市场对塑料瓶的稳定前景，北美可能在未来几年中占据全球塑料瓶回收市场的主导地位- 塑料废物的影响，以及几个主要的塑料瓶消费者的存在，例如可口可乐。例如，政府支持采用塑料瓶回收利用，例如在美国，卡罗来纳州塑料回收委员会于2017年4月开始了一项新活动，以使人们希望回收塑料瓶而不是扔掉。除了回收塑料瓶的环境益处外，塑料瓶回收的经济利益很大，这在运动中也在强调。该活动旨在说明塑料瓶回收的性质及其对社区的好处。一个受欢迎的服装品牌Target最近开始销售由再生塑料瓶制成的衣服。与Repreve合作，Target希望将生产的一系列衣服商业化而不损害环境。在未来几年，在衣服中使用再生塑料瓶可能会增加需求。
Plastic bottle recycling is a complicated and expensive process, which could restrain this recycling market’s growth in some regions. The key difficulty in plastic bottle recycling is that different plastic polymers cannot be mixed and have to be separated before being used again. Despite steady research into developing compatable plastic polymers, this is likely to remain an influential restraint on the global plastic bottle recycling market in the coming years.

A Research and Markets study forecasts 3.7% compound annual growth (CAGR) in the plastic bottle recycling market in the United States between 2014 and 2019. An analyst from the team says, “The demand for plastic and related products in the U.S. is growing at a significant rate, driven by the benefits of plastic materials over metals. Plastic is used in various industries such as automotive, health care, defense, oil and gas, and energy. This is one of the major reasons that has intensified the national focus on plastic recycling. In addition, recycling of plastic materials is critically important from an environmental point of view, as it helps address threats such as global warming, ozone layer depletion and environmental pollution.”
根据该报告，各种最终用途细分市场的需求不断增长，例如汽车，医疗保健，石油和天然气，建筑，食品和饮料以及家用产品刺激了塑料瓶的生产。储备金和原材料和商品价格上涨的稀缺性正在在市场上创造新的前景。此外，由于环境问题的越来越多，回收行业在过去的10年中已经大大发展。塑料瓶的回收主要是指塑料材料的再利用，因此可以通过最终将其转换为较低或同一等级塑料瓶来减少垃圾填埋场的废物量。这些瓶子根据其特性而用于应用。大多数塑料是半孔和吸收的食物或饮料分子。取出残留物是一项非常繁琐的任务，任何额外的加热都可能会损坏塑料。为了将塑料瓶转化为食品级塑料，将瓶水解为单体形式，并最终通过纯化和重新聚合过程，然后再转换为新形式。塑料瓶回收市场正在达到步伐，预计在不久的将来会以稳定的速度增长，这会随着对再生塑料瓶的需求不断增长和日益增长的环境问题的增长。
Technavio的分析师预测，在2014 - 2019年期间，全球塑料瓶行业的回收市场将以3.9％的复合年增长率增长。
