Most of this growth is attributed to the overall increase of DIY landscaping and container gardening for urban customers and limited mobility or space. In addition, the increased availability of plastic-based planters, fencing, storage bins, and garden accessories, made mostly from polyethylene, polypropylene, and recycled plastics, are addressing consumer interests for low-maintenance and durable products. Innovations in plastic formulations that offer improved UV resistance, color retention, and eco-friendliness are widening the market potential.
The continued outlook for the market is also aided by the growing availability of recycled and post-consumer plastic garden products, regulatory pressure for sustainable design, and manufacturer's efforts to embrace circular economy design. Demand should also grow in modular garden systems, smart irrigation plastics, and premium decorative containers, especially in developed markets with aging populations that spend on high levels on garden plastics.
"Glass-fiber-reinforced plastics to be second-fastest-growing composition segment"
Glass-fiber-reinforced plastics (GFRPs) is the second-highest expanding composition segment of the garden plastics market because of their robust mechanical properties, together with their enduring resistance to weathering. These reinforced materials are increasingly used for premium garden furniture, structural planters, fencing panels, and tool handles that require enhanced load-bearing and impact resistance capabilities. The growing interest among consumers for enduring garden solutions with esthetic value positions GFRP as an ideal solution that balances structural strength and design adaptability. These materials duplicate the appearance of wood and metal yet deliver reduced weight, together with superior corrosion protection which makes them desirable for upscale outdoor applications. The design-focused landscaping trend, combined with functional complexity drives the rising use of GFRP across premium product categories.
"Unfilled plastics segment to be fastest-growing in the garden plastics market"
The unfilled plastics industry has experienced significant growth throughout the garden plastics sector and is expected to benefit further during the forecast period. Because they are not reinforced and have no added fillers, unfilled plastics are a central part of the garden plastic packaging supply chain, because unfilled plastics are cheaper, easy to process, and recyclable. Usage of unfilled plastics continues to grow in the production of plant pots, garden borders, outdoor bins, and lightweight containers, especially where low structural integrity is not an issue. Because the molding processes can be varied and there are no composite formulations to consider, unfilled plastics provide fabrication versatility and composite input savings. Sustainability will remain a major issue for manufacturers and consumers as low-cost alternatives and unfilled plastics are filling a major gap in DIY gardening and small garden horticulture. Their comparative ease of use along with the growing acceptance of consumers to consider unfilled plastics as part of their eco-friendly gardening solution will continue to expedite the market growth of unfilled plastics..
"HDPE to be second-largest plastic type in the garden plastics market"
In tree planting in 2024, high-density polyethylene (HDPE) represented the second-largest plastic type to create products available in the garden plastics sector. The most relevant benefits of HDPE are that it is extensively available, regarded by some as a commodity-type plastic, and has the widest range of performance characteristics. HDPE is used in a wider variety of garden products such as garden furniture, pots, planters, and watering cans. HDPE has a unique combination of flexibility, durability, and weathering. HDPE is very suited for garden products intended for durable lifespans. HDPE is inexpensive compared to virgin raw granules, cheap to process, easy to process, and can be recycled. HDPE is a cheap, and environmentally sustainable option for manufacturers in garden plastics.
"North America to be second-largest regional market in 2024"
In 2024, North America was the second-largest regional market in the world garden plastics market. There is a consistent, strong demand for landscaping plastic products in the residential and commercial landscaping markets, particularly in the US and Canada. After the pandemic, there was an increase in home improvement projects, Do-It-Yourself (DIY) gardening, and a growing interest in sustainable landscaping practices. As a consequence, there has also been a rise in plastic gardening products, such as composters, raised garden beds, deck boxes, and outdoor furniture. Additionally, the growing environmental awareness of North American consumers has created higher motivation for regional producers of plastic products to promote innovation to produce plastic products. Due this, they are now using UV stabilized plastic and recyclable plastic products as these products can satisfy consumer needs for eco-conscious gardening. Furthermore, the larger retail brands that align with national and regional distributors, provide an extensive product distribution network that allows extensive product reach into the region.
