The India waste plastic recycling market size reached 10.9 Million Tons in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach 25.4 Million Tons by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 9.37% during 2025-2033. The increasing use of recycled plastic in the packaging industry, rising focus on sustainable lifestyle, and favorable initiatives by the Government for recycling waste plastic represent some of the key factors driving the market.

Increasing Use of Recycled Plastic in Packaging Industry Fostering Market Growth

The India waste plastic recycling market is experiencing continuous growth on account of the increasing use of recycled plastic in the food and beverage (F&B) packaging industry. The rising working population is resulting in the escalating demand for convenience and ready-to-eat (RTE) food. Moreover, due to rising environmental concerns leading market players and packaging companies are focusing on introducing recyclable packaging. Apart from this, individuals are adopting eco-friendly packaging prepared with non-toxic, durable, and recycled materials.

Competitive analysis such as market structure, market share by key players, player positioning, top winning strategies, competitive dashboard, and company evaluation quadrant has been covered in the report. Also, detailed profiles of all major companies have been provided. The market structure is fragmented with several small and large players operating in the industry due to low entry and exit barriers of entering the market. The volume of new entrants is strong in the India waste plastic recycling industry due to favorable government initiatives that support start-ups with innovative technology and low switching cost.

What is Waste Plastic Recycling?

Waste plastic recycling refers to the process of collecting and reprocessing plastic waste into new products. It prevents environmental pollution and helps conserve energy and natural resources. It also aids in reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as it takes less energy to recycle plastic. It is cost-effective as compared to plastic made from raw materials. Moreover, it creates various job opportunities, such as collection, sorting, processing, and manufacturing, in the recycling industry.

COVID-19 Impact:

The COVID-19 pandemic had a positive impact on the India plastic waste generation market. During the outbreak, the demand for face shields, gloves, takeaway food containers, and bubble wrap surged. Moreover, the mandatory use of personal protective equipment (PPE) by frontline workers significantly contributed to the plastic waste generation market in India. However, the volume of waste collected and sorted has fallen drastically and demand for recycled plastic has dropped in India. Apart from this, the closure of hotels and restaurants further caused serious disturbances in the waste plastic recycling market. Furthermore, the labor shortage has also blighted the sector, as most workers left the cities to move back to their homes in the countryside.

India Waste Plastic Recycling Market Trends:

At present, the flourishing automotive industry and the increasing number of auto parts and components prepared using recycled plastics represent one of the key factors positively influencing the market across India. In addition, the growing awareness among people about the harmful effects of plastic on the environment is catalyzing the demand for waste plastic recycling in the country. Apart from this, the Government of India (GoI) is undertaking plastic waste management (PWM) initiatives and introducing a ban on single-use plastic. This, in confluence with favorable initiatives to recycle plastic waste by the department of science and technology (DST), is stimulating the growth of the market across the country.
